[Wikimediauk-l] Wikimedia UK and the Science Museum Late

2014-11-27 Thread Stevie Benton
Hello everyone,

Wikimedia UK was well represented last night at the Science Museum Late
event. There were five Wikimedia-related sessions on offer and each was
very well received. The event was attended by an incredible 3,728 people!

Enormous thanks to all of the volunteers and staff who made the event such
a good experience for everyone who came along, it's very much appreciated.
A special thanks to Mary Langsdale and Roberta Wedge who worked extremely
hard to make the event such a success.

Thanks and regards,

Stevie

I couldn't attend, but I have to say that the work that went into it was
very impressive. This really was an event which couldn't - wouldn't - have
happened without the volunteers who showed up and helped.

I want to emphasise the thanks. It really was inspiring!

Just wanted to say a big thank you to everyone involved in tonight's event
- it was great fun to take part, and really good to see so many people
involved both new and familiar! Really encouraging that so many people in
this audience were keen to take part in the many Wiki-activities on offer.

Particular thanks to Roberta Wedge and Mary Langsdale for organising
everything.

 Hello everyone,

 Just under two weeks to go until the Science Museum Lates event on
 Wednesday 26 November. We are still looking for more volunteers to help out
 at what will be a fun, lively and unusual event.

 There are all sorts of things to get involved with, from helping with
 video and audio, to talking to people about the Wikimedia projects, helping
 folks photograph the brand new Information Age gallery for Commons or
 helping people record their voice for Wikipedia.

 More details, including sign-ups, can be seen here -
