[Wikidata] Wikidata's 4th birthday: we need you!

2016-10-05 Thread Léa Lacroix
Hello all,

As you know, Wikidata's fourth birthday
 is on October
29th, and during one week, we will celebrate it IRL and online with several
events.


*IRL events*

A meetup will take place in the Wikimedia Deutschland's office *in Berlin,
on November 4th*. You can meet Wikidata editors, celebrate the birthday,
discover new tools, play board games and eat a piece of cake! If you want
to come, please add your name here
.

You can't go to Berlin? That's not a problem, *you can organize your own
event* where you are! Find some other Wikidata editors or supporters, and
create your own meetup. You don't need to organize something complicated,
only choose a date, a place (bar, public location, etc.), and invite other
people to join. If you need any advice, I'll be happy to help. Please add
your events on this page
.


*Community stories*

This year, instead of a long editorial, we would like to collect several *short
stories from the editors*.

You want to participate? One of these questions may help you:

   - How did you start editing Wikidata?
   - *What is your coolest project achieved on Wikidata?*
   - What task are you the most proud of?
   - Or what interesting failure you encountered and what did you learn
   from that?
   - What was your favorite community moment on Wikidata?

The format can be anything you want: short text, blog post, comic strip,
video...

You can either post in on a subpage of your userpage, elsewhere on the web,
or send it to me by e-mail. I will link the stories on the birthday page.

The deadline is *October 28th*. If you have any questions, need ideas,
please come to me!
Thanks a lot,

And don't forget to carve into the golden book of Wikidata's history the
day when the client was first used in a Wikipedia. :-)

Hey Lea, Lydia and Wikidatans,

This sounds fun. I'd like to hold a Wikidata birthday party here in San
Francisco on Wednesday, October 26th at the Red Door Coffee SF at 111 Minna
Street (very close to the Wikimedia Foundation office - Montgomery BART
stop) from 12:30 pm-1:30 pm. I need help finding and inviting Wikidatans
however. I've added the event here -
https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata:Fourth_Birthday/Events.

(Since World University and School also donated CC WUaS to CC Wikidata
about this time last year, this will also be a mini-birthday for WUaS in
Wikidata! And Red Door Coffee SF is where Wikimedia Foundation Legal
Director Michelle Paulson and I met to talk about World University and
School as well!:) Michelle, will you come and celebrate?

Hey Lea,

How best to create a page like this -
https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata:Fourth_Birthday/Events/Berlin
- (from https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata:Fourth_Birthday/Events) -
for the Wikidata SF Birthday Party? It isn't possible to currently, and
it's saying search the logs.

Thanks, Scott
