- Very interested! (to meet Singaporean Wikipedians) Haven't contributed to Wikipedia so much, but will be increasing my participation rate. Would love to meet veterans and learn from them. ∞4 (talk) 06:02, 14 November 2014 (UTC)
- yeap! Yd85
- Is the meetup still happening, or has it happened already? I'd like to join. Rindo (talk) 05:58, 23 July 2015 (UTC)
- Interested to join! Can make it during weekends. Chongkian (talk) 04:25, 25 August 2015 (UTC)
- Interested in it, Singapore is not a place with frequent WikiMeetups (as Hong Kong, my hometown did). Just a question: Are Wikimedians outside Singapore are not allowed to join (if not allowed, I will save lots of ticket fees, transportation fees, fees for eatery, etc).--Spring Roll Conan ( Talk · Contributions ) 12:44, 7 October 2015 (UTC). Hi Spring Roll Conan, anyone in Singapore (or near Singapore or willing to fly to Singapore) is welcomed to this meetup :) Chongkian (talk) 12:44, 13 October 2015 (UTC)
- I'm interested in this. :) Kenrick Talk 11:55, 11 October 2015 (UTC)
- I am in. It has been a while.--Exec8 (talk) 16:47, 26 October 2015 (UTC)
Plan for the event
[edit]Agenda
[edit]- Please add anything you are interested in discussing or doing at the meetup to the tentative agenda below.
- Pick one or two articles on the Wikipedia:SGpedians' notice board that are asking for comments, clean-up, expansion and so on, and work on them collaboratively.
- How we can "recruit" more SG Wikipedians (I.e. Organising Wikipedia-related events at libraries, etc., and also so as to better educate the lesser informed about the"rules and regulations" of Wikipedia. Many Singaporeans, in my opinion, still do not know what's right and what's wrong when it comes to basic editing.)
- Wikipedia Asian Month will be held on November 2015.
- Other business.
Things to bring
[edit]- Notebook laptops or tablet computers
- Portable modem (if applicable, in case the WiFi at the venue is down)
- Pens and papers
- Your other friends (Wikipedian beginners are most welcomed)
- Camera (we want to document this event, don't we? :) )
- Selfie stick :P
Discussions regarding the planned Singapore Wikipedia Meetup 8 event
[edit]Are there other active Wikipedians in Singapore? Are we able to meet each other at a neutral, public place? --huggi - never stop exploring (talk) 07:38, 5 September 2015 (UTC)
- I'm in! This one is more like "Are we able to meet each other at a neutral, public place with free wifi access?" :P Chongkian (talk) 04:04, 9 September 2015 (UTC)
- Chongkian: Yes forgot wifi, hope we will be more than just you and me :)
- I'm there (if I'm allowed to join the meetup as a foreign Wikimedian who wrote some Singaporean articles in zhwp, one of them is a GA), hope that this will succeed on the said date. Personally I know there's a Singaporean Wikipedian who was active in enwp and zhwp, and privately I have contact links with him. But I guess that it's very possible he may not be able join this meetup (as it seems that he is still young and even being busy with his school life). --Spring Roll Conan ( Talk · Contributions ) 14:19, 7 October 2015 (UTC)
- Spring Roll Conan, anyone in Singapore or outside Singapore (who are willing to travel or fly to Singapore) is most welcomed for this meetup. Well, we do understand that we can never satisfy everyone, else we can never find the most appropriate date and time for this meetup. But we can always do more often in the future. But as for this moment, we will go for this Meetup 8 first :) Chongkian (talk) 12:46, 13 October 2015 (UTC)
- Are we serious on 8 November at the National Library? --Exec8 (talk) 17:14, 26 October 2015 (UTC)
- Well, we have to make it serious, or else this meeting won't happen :P Chongkian (talk) 15:44, 27 October 2015 (UTC)
