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
<https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/wikimedia-uk-agm-2017-tickets-34718203080>*
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(a)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
