@Bjenks, Dan arndt, Evad37, Gnangarra, Mitch Ames, Samwilson, AtticEdit, Ridiculopathy, Dwertyorga, and MavropaliasG: The Wikimedians who attended the October Meetup 89 agreed that the next meetup, and final one for 2025, should be held in the second half of November, with the following meetup probably being in Jan 2026. I volunteered to arrange, and I've just created the page.

I'm thinking Sun 23 November, with the following meetup being Sun 18 January 2026 (to avoid the Australia Day long weekend). Anyone having any views - please post them here. As for the venue, I will try to think of somewhere worth photographing for Commons, as per the October meetup. Again, any comments please post them here.

I’m going to be overseas for most of November so I’ll see you in the new year. Dan arndt (talk) 11:05, 21 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]

For January we talked about doing maybe a Thursday evening meetup on the 15th (as it's the 25th birthday). But I agree, a photo outing somewhere on the weekend after would be great! And for the November meetup, how about somewhere around East Perth Cemeteries or Claisebrook area? Or maybe the cafe at Grove library in Cottesloe? Or somewhere on the new Armadale line? Sam Wilson 11:58, 21 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Grove library would be good for Nov. It's open on Suns 12-4pm. I was already thinking we could photograph the Albion Hotel, which is across the road, heritage listed, and has a Wikipedia article (that could do with improvement), and not a huge number of Commons images just yet. As for Jan, sorry, I forgot about the Thu night suggestion. Let's go with that. I think we discussed the Buffalo Club in Fremantle, didn't we? It's open until 10pm on Thursday nights. Bahnfrend (talk) 14:31, 21 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I'm good for 23rd at Cottesloe, and yeah we did talk about the Buffalo on the 15th Jan. both sound like a plan Gnangarra 11:17, 23 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]

also be good to put the January one up early perhaps we'll catch some travellers from other parts too. Gnangarra 11:18, 23 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]

the SailGP is on at Freo on the 17-18 Jan, so having it on Thursday 15 January at the Buffalo Club is a great idea. Dan arndt (talk) 01:47, 24 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Okay, I've fixed the date for Nov, and also created a new page for the Jan meetup. The Nov venue will now be the Albion Hotel as the cafe inside the Grove Library is not open on Sundays. Bahnfrend (talk) 12:44, 25 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Bahnfrend, Bjenks, Dan arndt, Evad37, Gnangarra, Mitch Ames, AtticEdit, Ridiculopathy, Dwertyorga, and MavropaliasG: Just noting here that the next meetup is to be on January 15th, in Fremantle. Sam Wilson 00:05, 5 January 2026 (UTC)[reply]

A Thursday night at the Fremantle Workers' Club ??? Dan arndt (talk) 01:44, 5 January 2026 (UTC)[reply]

@Dan arndt: No way, that'd be silly! It's a Thursday night at the Fremantle Buffalo club! :-P (It's Thursday because that's Wikipedia Day, and it's 7PM because {I think} that's the actual celebration time world-wide.) Sam Wilson 07:12, 5 January 2026 (UTC)[reply]

@Samwilson:, my memory is not as good as it used to be. I've wacked it in my diary! so I can't forget. Dan arndt (talk) 07:17, 5 January 2026 (UTC)[reply]

@Bjenks, Dan arndt, Evad37, Gnangarra, Mitch Ames, Samwilson, AtticEdit, Ridiculopathy, Dwertyorga, and MavropaliasG: As agreed at last night's meetup, the next meetup will be held in mid-February at Dôme Café, Byford (Q131159771), to celebrate the extension of the Armadale railway line to Byford station. It will be on a Sunday (15 Feb) and therefore a day when Transperth trains, etc, are free (with a SmartRider). Bahnfrend (talk) 06:28, 16 January 2026 (UTC)[reply]

@Bjenks, Dan arndt, Evad37, Gnangarra, Mitch Ames, Samwilson, AtticEdit, Ridiculopathy, Dwertyorga, and MavropaliasG: Sam and I decided at Sunday's meetup to have a March meetup in Midland to commemorate the opening of the new railway station there. Details are on the meetup page. Bahnfrend (talk) 09:05, 17 February 2026 (UTC)[reply]
