My Fellow Wikimedians,

Mark your preferred Wikimania sessions (=E2=AD=90/ like) on eventyay while =
this
volunteer created tool is very useful for getting your starred sessions
into your calendar: https://wfc.toolforge.org/

If you are from an affiliate, chapter, hub, user group, or local community,
we love to see your brochures, handouts or pocket books. For others, aside
from those, you can bring in small items in our conference in Nairobi.
Further details are at the Wikimania Exchange Corner :
https://wikimania.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimania:2025/Exchange_Corner

Meetups are seen at
https://wikimania.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimania:2025/Meetups

If you have any questions, feel free to ask at [email protected]



Sincerely,

Butch Bustria
