Enormous thanks to the Wikimedia Foundation for the scholarship, which
allowed me to be part of this fairy tale called Wikimania in Haifa. It was
my first Wikimania, so I can't compare it with any other so far, but I felt
all of the hospitality, care and good organization of Wikimedia Israel.
As someone who prefers to have their firstname and username printed along
with their home wiki, but didn't want my fullname printed I'm happy that

If what you said was correct the security staff must've been explicitly

I was not asked for a CD, but when I showed the 3-4 pages printed on
purpose to confirm my attendance, I was told I should have received
another document for the security. I just said no, I did not.
When asked about my Egypt stamp, my answer was straight Wikipedia,

Thanks for the input. I have started changing / enhancing the Wikimania
Handbook accordingly.
Maybe some of you didn't know it already but it is extremely helpful. We

I was going to make one, but had to give priority to my Wikimedia Chapters
presentation - the preperation of which got a little bump in the road the

Thank you, Wikimedia Israel team for a fantastic Wikimania in Haifa.
The conference organization was close to flawless both for the tech
hackathon and main program. It was an enriching experience for me with
excellent talks and great people participating.

User name and home wiki are musts in my opinion, WMF staff are

This morning I went to Ben Gurion Airport for my El Al flight back to
