![]() Background edit![]() Nordic Wikimedia affiliates (i.e. Northern European affiliates) have been meeting up on bigger Wikimedia conferences for years and also there have been several collaborative activities (e.g. Yearbook), but during discussions in 2017 it has been more and more clear that this regional collaborative could use an in-person meeting to support regional cooperation and peer mentorship in a more effective and functional way. In preparation of the meeting, a few key thematic areas for collaboration have been highlighted: strategic discussions, GLAM, Education, Tech, Advocacy and Communication. The open space format of the meeting will facilitate discussions, idea generation and next steps. The format of the meeting edit![]() ![]() Prepare for the meeting editHere are a few instructions for participants on tasks to do as preparation for the meeting. Organizational profile edit![]() Find the template for the Organizational profile editThere is no need for you to start your poster from scratch, we will be using a poster profile template available on Commons: Organizational profile template. How to submit your poster editThe deadline for the poster is on Wednesday 3 October. You submit it by uploading it to Commons naming the file “WikiNEM 2018 Organizational profile [name of affiliate]” and add it to the WikiNEM documentation page. How the posters will be used editThe WMSE event team will take care of printing all posters and they will be displayed in the meeting venue. The posters will be presented by your teams during the Gallery Walk at 17:00 on Saturday, and you will get more instructions for how we will run that session. Lightning talks edit![]() Each talk will be five minutes, and can make use of no more than five slides. Participant presentations editOn the participants page everyone is welcome to add a very brief introduction about themselves, and browse other participants in WikiNEM. Timeline edit
Host editSweden has been approved by members of Nordic Wikimedia as an ideal location for organizing this event for its central geographical location and for notable experience that local chapter Wikimedia Sverige and its staff has in organizing international events (e.g. Wikimedia Diversity Conference 2017). Pre Conference Meetup edit![]() There was a Meetup during Wikimania 2018 for involved affiliates to discuss some of the preparations of WikiNEM.
