Hello, all-- Happy almost-Thanksgiving! I'm writing for two reasons: first, there is an upcoming edit-a-thon in Lowell, and the organizers would welcome additional support from local Wikipedians. So if you're in that area and would like to participate, please contact the organizers -- the first event is December 7th, but it's actually part of a larger series focused on Lowell history.
Wikipedia event page: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Meetup/Boston/downtownlowell_editathon Meetup.com event page: http://www.meetup.com/wikipedia-5/events/218797475/ And second, it's about time for an end-of-year New England Wikimedian meeting. These are often held on a weekend afternoon, to allow as many people as possible to attend. We have two possible dates, so I'd like to ask the group to vote: http://doodle.com/sgubbyrd74kpx2t7 (I've used a Doodle poll so that anyone can reply, with or without a Meetup or Wikipedia account.) Please join us to discuss our Fall happenings, plan for the Spring, and share the holiday spirit. You do not need any prior experience with Wikipedia — all are welcome! Amanda / User:AmandaRR123
