[Wikimediauk-l] Wikipedia Science Conference, 2nd and 3rd September 2015
Hi all, Planning is going ahead for this autumn's Wikipedia Science Conference. Weare keen to build community involvement into this from the outset. There is new Planning subpage https://wikimedia.org.uk/wiki/Wikipedia_Science_Conference/Planning where you can help shape this conference and catch up on volunteer opportunities in the run up to the conference itself. This conference has great potential in bringing together both Wikimedians and scientists to discover the common ground which will make future colloboration so exciting. all the best Fabian Tompsett, Volunteer Support Organiser, Wikimedia UK, Address: 56-64 Leonard St, Shoreditch, London EC2A 4LT Phone:020 7065 0990 *Mobile: *07840 455 746 Wikimedia UK is a Company Limited by Guarantee registered in England and Wales, Registered No. 6741827.

I have only just heard about this. Someone from ContentMine will be there, and I'll go along. The event runs from 11:30 to 5 pm. (ContentMine will also be represented that day in a Birmingham event: they are the people scraping facts from scientific journals. There are 60+ events worldwide.)

[Wikimediauk-l] chief executive recruitment
Dear all Things are moving along with the Chief Executive recruit process - Just a reminder: The deadline for applications is February 23rd. We are continuing to discuss the format of the selection process, one element of which will be a short (likely ~10 minute) presentation. ** *I’d like to invite suggestions for presentation-prompts here *** We have some ideas of course, but I think people had conversations very relevant to this at the volunteer strategy day in Birmingham. I can build off some of the thoughts there for ideas, but others may be feeling more creative, or have better memories(!). So, thoughts welcome, Many thanks Simon ___ Wikimedia UK mailing list wikimediau...@wikimedia.org http://mail.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikimediauk-l WMUK: https://wikimedia.org.uk
