I could be heading to the Australia Day ceremony in Canberra tomorrow. I did look into the tonights ceremony but they didn't reply to my email.

Do they typically allow gawkers to take photographs at public citizenship ceremonies? I might be able to get to the Brisbane one (weather permitting) tomorrow.

It would be good to try to collaborate on a Wikinews piece about the various events. The recipients will be announced at a ceremony in Canberra from 6:00pm until 7:00pm. If we can get a list of winners, we can collaborate on determining notability and improving the articles. There will be a concert from 7:45pm - 10:00pm. Both events will be held on the lawns of Federation Mall in front of Parliament House, Canberra. Can anyone with a camera make it to either event? The media accreditation packs are here: http://www.australianoftheyear.org.au/media/files/vk0j5q_Australian%20of%20the%20Year%20Awards%20&%20%20Australia%20Day%20Live%20Concert%20accreditation.pdf Contact info at: http://www.australianoftheyear.org.au/pages/page5.asp The PDF says that press applications needed to be submitted by Jan 20. ;-( -- John Vandenberg ___ Wikimediaau-l mailing list Wikimediaau-l@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikimediaau-l
