Hi everyone!
Thank you all for coming to the meetup yesterday!
Lots happened!
- Rosiestep gave our first remote presentation, on Wiki Women in Red. Find [her
slides and call to action
here](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:2025_Bay_Area_Wikipedians_-_Demystifying_Wikipedia%E2%80%99s_Gender_Gaps.pdf).
If you create a page after being inspired by the presentation, let us know!
Thank you for bearing with us through tech difficulties - we'll be better
prepared for next time...
- We discussed and implemented changes to our membership and voting process!
You can find the final version here:

. Thank you to everyone who volunteered to become a member. If I missed anyone
when I gathered user IDs and email addresses for people wanting to become
members, please let me know.
- We heard from the developer of https://factorday.com/, a series of games and
puzzles based on the Wiki API. Check it out!
Wiki loves Pride
- There's been too much to do to and not enough funding to organize a big event
this year, but we are thinking of hosting an online editathon on Tuesday the
24th, in the evening. Event invite forthcoming.
- Our very own @Audiodude also generated a list of stubs about LGBT+ media such
as movies that can be improved. The full list of suggested articles is here:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Event:Wiki_Loves_Pride/2025/Suggested_articles.
- Wikimedia LGBT is also organizing an online editathon on the 29th at 8am.

Wiknic / July meetup
Our July meetup will be on the 12th, a Saturday, at 10.30am. This is a potluck
and a social event (with some crafts, a screenprinting station and wiki games).
Please register here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Event:Bay_Area_Wiknic_2025
and invite others who may have an interest in Wikipedia. It has not been
announced by central banner yet, but last year we had a large number of
registration, so we welcome all help by Wikimedia editors interested in talking
to the broader public about their work.
That's all for today!
See you next month.
@Audiodude, @elanHR, @e_mln_e
