The Wikimedia UK Annual Conference and AGM has established itself as an attractive annual event that is well attended by existing WMUK members and a wide variety of supporting individuals and organisations.
250 people (mostly German, Austrian and Swiss, but some others)
recently met in Karlsruhe for the annual German-language "WikiCon"
event.
Wikimedia Deutschland are quick to point out that, though they support
the event logistically and financially, it's not their's but is
community driven.
In contrast, how many people did we have at our nearest equivalent,
the WikimediaUK AGM?
Wikimania notwithstanding, how can we get more people at our future
events, and should we - from 2015 onwards - be looking at a similar
annual conference, beyond (but perhaps containing) the WMUK AGM, of
similar size, and which is open to all Wikimedians?
