The registration fee is reasonable, or possibly on the cheap side given the typical costs (). Being Sweden I assume there will be good vegan options at all meals, otherwise it would be fair to allow unbundling the meals. On the

For us in Portugal joining wikimedia, even in a relatively close city like Stockholm, without a scholarship stands at a minimum cost of 1000€, which really is a prohibitive cost for the great majority of people here, corresponding to way more than a regular full month wage (two minimum wages,

Re: [Wikimania-l] Wikimania 2019 Early Bird Registration is Now Open!

Flight costs between Lisbon and Stockholm were indeed about 100€ many months ago. However, when the scholarships were out, anyone receiving a partial scholarship or wanting to go on their own anyway would have to pay over 400€ already, just for the flight . Paulo A sábado, 1 de jun de 2019,

Hello, One point on 2018 scholarships: in 2017, a non-negligible number of Wikimedians (something between 10 and 20 I think) did not get Canadian visas. WMF decided to automatically grant them 2018 scholarships, basically re-using their scholarship budget. Removing this outlier, we should be

This is not a new or surprising discussion, and thanks for bringing it to the table. While $270 (conference + preconference) is a lot of money, you do get a 5-day conference with lunches, refreshments, reception and probably a dinner or two. That sounds like quite a modest price, compared to most

I'd really prefer people be volunteering for these things because they want to and they value what they're doing, not because they have to in order to do something else. It's good that those who do care to volunteer here don't need to pay the high fee on top of that, but it doesn't resolve the

Are there any plans to add ticket options that are more affordable, especially for volunteers? Even with Early Bird discount, $270 is... a lot, frankly (and after today, $375). Prior to Montreal two years ago (Cape Town last year was also similarly expensive), the registration cost of

Great News! The Wikimania discount registration 'early bird' price period has been extended to May 31st! Details: https://wikimania.wikimedia.org/wiki/2019:Registration Also, don’t forget: If you want to make a presentation, run a workshop, or display a poster during Wikimania, the Call for
