About the Event

edit
 
Home cafe

The meetup is for both experienced editors and those wanting to try editing Wikipedia, Wikidata, or Wikimedia Commons. Come along to listen to what others are doing, talk about what you’re doing, ask questions, and get some help.The meetup is organised by Einebillion (Victoria Leachman) and Ambrosia10 (Siobhan Leachman).

Complete beginners are welcome. Training and troubleshooting is provided. Free WiFi is available. Bring a laptop if you can. There are also public computers in the space that have internet access. We’re open to everyone and committed to providing a safe space.

Food and drink in the space is frowned upon within the net.work area but Home Cafe is a a few steps away if your energy is flagging.
