To add to Asaf ' s list of don'ts can I suggest for future Wikimanias:


Thanks! I've created the 
https://wikimania2015.wikimedia.org/wiki/Feedback page, please everyone 
add to it.

Can a sysop include it in the sidebar (and later in the sitenotice)? Thanks.

2015-07-19 Thread Bohdan Melnychuk
For me the party was, I wouldn't censour myself, crappy. The music was too loud 
so it was impossible to either speak to people I already know or make new 
connections. You had to literally shout into one's ear so that the person hears 
you. I was able to stay there only with my headphones in my ears so that part 
of noise got absorbed. And I'm not a person who likes to dance, perhaps some 
wine would do the trick of changing my attitude to the activity but all that 
was there were some Mexican snacks or whatever which unfortunately aren't to my 
taste.

 I really enjoyed the party last night, look forward to seeing the photos. As 
 a Londoner I must also thank you for arranging the rain, it really made me 
 feel at home.

 I don't think I will be able to upload my photos till I get home, but has 
 someone created categories on commons for the photos taken at each of the 
 museums, and maybe on Facebook for the party stuff that is more appropriate 
 for social media?

Re: [Wikimania-l] Soumaya reception

2015-07-18 Thread Chris Keating
To add to Asaf ' s list of don'ts can I suggest for future Wikimanias:

DON'T rely on buses to make round trips to get to venues

DON'T try to squeeze the whole attendance of the event through one
revolving door to a venue

DON'T advertise food and drink  when you mean a glass of fruit juice and
finger food

DON'T hold the group photo at a venue away from the main conference

DON'T have music so loud it obliterates conversation
On 18 Jul 2015 18:48, Asaf Bartov abar...@wikimedia.org wrote:

 According to a volunteer at the registration desk just now, three buses
 leave at 7:00, drop people at the museum, and then come back to pick up the
 rest.  I think this means:

 1. DON'T assume the bus won't leave BEFORE 7:30, or at 7:30.

 2. DON'T assume there will be room on the later trip if too many people
 choose that instead of the earlier trip.

 In other words, to ensure you make it to the museum with the buses, you
 should probably be at the lobby at 7:00 and STAY there if you don't get on
 the first trip, so that you don't miss the second one.
