Re: [Wikimedia-US-CO] WikiConference North America submissions and scholarships due tomorrow (15 august)

I'll have to take a better look at the route tonight. Hopefully there will
be something good along the way.

Doing it over two days would leave about nine hours of driving a day, so
that would certainly leave time for a few photo stops.

do that if you can.

Sadly even if we decided it was worth the distance, it's probably too late
to actually organise something bigger at this point. But what do you think?

How many pictures can you get on the way? Because you should totally 
still do that if you can.

If you haven't done this before, proposal submissions are
talks/panels/workshops for basically anything we might see at any
other
Wikimedia event, but also especially stuff applicable to local groups
and whatnot. Like what have we even been doing as a group?

And if you're wondering if you should apply for a scholarship, the
answer is yes. They're very straight forward, you just get 500$ to
figure out your own trip and that should cover most of it, and if
you do
anything at all, you're probably in the running for getting one. If

As a side note, in the past I may have mentioned how we should

some point, hint hint. Maybe if some of us meet up at the

Last years was here:

So based on that I added a red link to where we'd expect 2017 on the 
main group page. Please correct if that's wrong!

[Wikimedia-US-CO] WikiConference North America submissions and scholarships due tomorrow (15 august)

2018-08-14 Thread Isarra Yos 
Hey all, for anyone who's interested and hasn't necessarily gotten 
around to it, general reminder that submissions and scholarship 
applications are due tomorrow. So if you're like me and haven't 
submitted anything yet and/or applied for a scholarship and want to, do 
these now!


If you haven't done this before, proposal submissions are 
talks/panels/workshops for basically anything we might see at any other 
Wikimedia event, but also especially stuff applicable to local groups 
and whatnot. Like what have we even been doing as a group?


And if you're wondering if you should apply for a scholarship, the 
answer is yes. They're very straight forward, you just get 500$ to 
figure out your own trip and that should cover most of it, and if you do 
anything at all, you're probably in the running for getting one. If 
you're subscribed to this list, you probably do something. If you're an 
academic, you also have a more academia-style option to look into.


As a side note, in the past I may have mentioned how we should maybe try 
combining the photo road trip idea with getting people to this 
conference, but this was before I realised just how far away Ohio really 
is. I thought it was close to Colorado! It's not! This one's further 
away than San Diego! But even if that's not necessarily feasible for
