Thank you for addressing this issue. Yes, members of the wikidata community have participated in Force11 events in the past and also this year: http://sched.co/F7u7 Members of the Force11 actually visited the Wikidata headquarters last year in Berlin when our 2017 conference was held there. See that program for reference: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1DH8FfDOGOqzYpCjVJK4aZcVq0vk4d-77fx7MUHRLV_Q/edit#gid=719985695
A friendly suggestion: please look up the event, in this case Force11 [ https://www.force11.org/meetings/force2018], before sending emails that contain suggestions to blacklist people.
