Wikimaps event 2024
A Wikimedia geo event is long overdue. In 2024 we can team up with one of the upcoming events in the latter part of 2024, or arrange a separate, online or hybrid event. |
Where / when? edit
The event needs to take place in the latter half of the year if we wish to apply for Wikimedia event funding. There have been a few suggestions for events we could piggyback with. Comment on the ones or add a new one. Join the Telegram group for a livelier discussion.
