Wikipedia talk:Meetup/Auckland

I hope you had a good time, I apologise for not making it today. Yesterday I went with a group of school (primary) kids up Mt Ruapehu, and did not feel like rushing up there today :). Thanks simon for the report. Brian | (Talk) 05:53, 25 June 2006 (UTC)

NP you can catch the next one. I've just added a little bit for others to add more personal bits at the bottom of the report ( We do this on another wiki I frequent) and wote a quick paragraph. - SimonLyall 08:02, 25 June 2006 (UTC)

Lost pen

The pen looks a little bit like these

Did anyone pick up the pen I was using at the pub? I think I just left it on the table when I left. It's an Eppendorf pen made to look a little bit like an autopipette.-gadfium 08:32, 26 June 2006 (UTC)

next meeting

Is another one planned? Mathmo

No one's planning one to my knowledge, but it would seem like a good idea. If you want to organise one, the place to advertise it is at Wikipedia:New Zealand Wikipedians' notice board. You might get reduced numbers in December because many people will already be heavily committed to other social events, and during January, since many people will be on holiday, but if you just want to meet other Wikipedians, then nominate any weekend afternoon at some reasonably central pub or cafe, preferably with convenient parking. Give a week or two notice.-gadfium 17:22, 26 November 2006 (UTC)

Hi, I am on vacation in NZ in march, is any wiki meeting planned ? the list seems pretty empty. -- A1000 (talk) 17:14, 25 February 2011 (UTC)

Revisiting WM-NZ

Hi. Some of the Australians are really keen to help the Kiwis establish a chapter. We'd love to help organise a one day RecentChangesCamp in early December in Auckland, with a track to do this. As most of the people offering support are Australian, we really need help getting a venue and then help promoting it. We've got some contacts with Wiki Educator and Creative Commons New Zealand that we can try to get involved with this. Just need some people who might be interested in helping get the ball rolling. :) If that's you, please get in touch with me, or drop by #wikimedia-au ^connect. --LauraHale (talk) 08:55, 11 October 2011 (UTC)
