Hello! Luiysia again :) Let's get together to celebrate Wikipedia Day 2025.

The meetup will be at the Wicker Park-Bucktown Library meeting room, and starts at 1:30 pm.

Here is the official meetup page, where you can find more details and add yourself as an attendee.

(If you would prefer not to see messages for Chicago meetups, go ahead and take yourself off this list.)

Hope to see you all soon!

Greetings Luiysia! I noticed that the Chicago Wikipedia day meetup seems wildly oversubscribed. You seem possibly involved in the planning so I'm reaching out to offer help finding a larger space if/when that's helpful. It would probably a bad idea to change the location at this late a date, but I am faculty at Northwestern and can get us space on the Evanston campus pretty much anytime (the Chicago campus is...possible, but more complicated). Anyhow, I'm on the waitlist for January 19 and will try to join if it seems reasonable to do so. Otherwise, I'm so grateful that you took the initiative to revive some Chicago Wikipedia activities and am eager to help/support however I can! Aaron (talk) 23:01, 9 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hey Aaron - Yeah since the banner went up we ended up having a ton of interest, way more than usual lol. We have casual meetups every other month. I appreciate the offer since there's been some interest in having them on the north side. It could also be good to have some outreach events at Northwestern (I know in the past we've had them at UChicago, UIC, etc). I'll reach out to you!

Awesome! That's great about the banner bringing people out of the woodwork. Thanks for emailing—I'll reply there re: planning other things up north :)

Hi,

I thought I signed up previously.

So please include me.

Thanks.
