The Ōtautahi Christchurch monthly meetups are a chance for Wiki people (Wikipedia, Wikidata, Wikimedia Commons, Wikisource, and so on) to get together. Everybody's welcome, beginners or experienced.

  • Foundation Cafe, ground floor of Tūranga, the Christchurch Central Library. We can move to a table space in the library when everyone has arrived.
  • Sunday 7 July 2024
  • 10:00–midday

Apologies

[edit]
  • MurielMary (talk) (will be out of town)
  • David Palmer//cloventt (talk) Unfortunately can't arrange childcare so won't be attending.
  • Alexeyevitch(talk) (Next meetup should be in Addington - more convenient for me)

What have we been up to?

[edit]
  • David Palmer//cloventt (talk) Not had much time for wikiwork in the last month, with work and other interests ramping up a bit. Visited Tekapo so took the opportunity to create an article for the Tekapo A Power Station and take a bunch of photos, which are now on Commons. Started a Draft:Fairlie Bakehouse article because they seem pretty notable in the area. Have yet to publish that though, any feedback would be welcome.

Upcoming events

[edit]
  • Christchurch Architecture Edit-a-thon 2–3 August 2024 (watch this space): A Friday afternoon/evening (to 8pm), Saturday morning to midday event in a single location. People are encouraged to drop in for all or some of it.

Outcomes and tips

[edit]

Next event

[edit]
  • The 4 August meeting will be replaced by the Christchurch Architecture edit-a-thon
  • Following that will be a meeting on 7 or 8 of September: time and place will depend on a responses to a Doodle poll. We can look at changing either if it means more people can attend.
