WikiConference North America is the annual conference of Wikimedia enthusiasts and volunteers from throughout North America, including the United States, Canada, Mexico, and the Caribbean. It was a gathering of Wikipedia, Wikimedia, Wikidata, Wikicite, Wikisource, Wikimedia Commons and Wikimedia movement enthusiasts for a long weekend of collaboration and discovery.
This year's theme was " online | en ligne | en línea" reflecting the nature of doing the conference completely virtually because of the global pandemic.
Activities included a virtual Culture Crawl covering GLAM tools and projects; multiple editathons; multiple lightning talk sessions; traditional community-led programming; user-driven open space programming on the final day as well as two evening social receptions in a virtual space, Wonder.me.
Sponsorships and funding edit
No Wikimedia Foundation or movement funding was used in the production of the event. It was completely run using volunteer effort and donated resources.
