Allow me to register my objection to the name/schedule combination! ;)
(Would love to come, but I'll be on a plane to Brussels for FOSDEM. Next
time!)
Ha, yes. I guess "Wiki Thursday" didn't have quite the same ring... :)
For those who aren't familiar with these gatherings, "Wiki Wednesday"
is an ongoing meetup about wikis, typically on the 1st Wed of the
month -- they happen all over the world in various locations. I
believe that SocialText started them, and here in the Bay Area, the
SocialText office in Palo Alto has hosted most of them. I believe the
Dreamfish one above is the first one in SF. Check the wiki page for
more info:

I'm not usually able to make it, since Palo Alto is pretty far away
for me, but I hear the meetings are good. Wikimedians have presented
at them in the past.
