Harry - that sounds really good! If you've got a written version anywhere and it isn't on the WMUK blog can you make that a thing for those of us (like me) who sadly won't make it. 

I have voted by proxy though :)

I assumed all the slots would be taken, but I'd be happy to give a talk if there's space. Let's go with "War Memorials, Wikipedia, and Why You Should Care", just because I appreciate alliteration. (Hi Nicola! If you need more detail, please do email me offlist.)

Is there somewhere public we can put these things and/or sign up for the event in general? I know it's a crazy Wikipedian thing, but it might inspire someone else.

Best,

Harry Mitchell

Dear all

There are quite a few places left at Saturday's AGM so please sign up here if you'd like to come. As well as the AGM, this is a key opportunity to feed into the final cycle of the global Wikimedia movement strategy process, as there will be a workshop/facilitated discussion on the emerging strategy in the morning. We will be joined, virtually, at this session by Ravishankar Ayyakkannu from the Wikimedia Foundation's Global Reach and Partnerships team, who will give a short summary of the New Voices strategy track and will be available to answer questions during the discussions.

One of the highlights of last year's event for me was the 'lightning talks' session, but so far this year we only have one person signed up. Please consider giving a lightning talk and sharing some of your wiki wisdom! Talks should generally be about five minutes long, although of course if we don't have many people signed up the timings will be a bit more relaxed. You can sign up by emailing nicola.furness@wikimedia.org.uk with your name and a title for your talk. 

I'm looking forward to seeing many of you at Senate House Library on Saturday. 

Best wishes

Lucy
