Having Wikimania during [[Tisha B'Av]] [1], the last day of [[The Three Weeks]]
is a no go for all religious jews - not only Orthodox Jews. It is a long fast
(26 hours long) which starts the day before, very much like Yom Kipur.
Even I will not be able to attend Wikimania on that day (and the day before).
