Hey Wikisourcers!

Guess what? The applications are in, the reviews are done, and the shortlist for the 2025 Wikisource Conference in Indonesia is ready! We had over 300 of you apply (amazing!), and a team of dedicated wiki volunteers sifted through each application with care and attention. The selected usernames have been sent individual invites straight from wikisourceconferencegmail.com — check your inbox (and spam folder, just in case)!

Now, if you got the golden email, congrats! 🎉 Make sure to reply within the deadline to lock in your spot. And if you didn’t get an email yet, don’t give up hope! We might still have room for more folks as we finalize the list over the next couple of weeks. Hang tight, and you’ll hear soon!

Big thanks to everyone who poured their heart into making this event happen and to all the communities that make Wikisource what it is. Let’s make this conference a game-changer for our project—can’t wait to see what we’ll accomplish together!
