Is there a wikimania conference at Philippines?

So is there any wikimania event in Philippines? 143.44.164.223 00:34, 9 November 2024 (UTC)

Hello @143.44.164.223 currently no there is no wikimania related event in Philippines. However, if there will be one in Philippines it will be listed on the 2025:Related affiliate events page. Please keep an eye on that page.

Thank you.

Ok we hope that in 2026 a Wikimania

event will be in Philippines 143.44.164.223 07:11, 10 November 2024 (UTC)

Hello @143.44.164.223, please still keep an eye on 2025:Related affiliate events for 2025 maybe the PhilWiki Community might decide to host a Wikimania 2025 watch party/event.

Thank you

Currently Wikimania is rotated regionally across the world. For 2026, unless there have been changes since the last round of Wikimania:Expressions of Interest, it will be in Paris. The dates are not decided yet as there are a lot of factors in play. As to if it will be in Philippines the next time, it can be considered if there is a proposal for it in the next EOI. However do note that Singapore hosted Wikimania in 2023, the first since COVID-19. If we are doing it in a rotational manner since then, it may take awhile for South-east Asia region to be considered again. Robertsky (talk) 15:47, 19 November 2024 (UTC)

Venue

As booking early can really save money, I wanted to ask when a decision on the venue can be expected?

I understand that negotiating and renting a venue may take time, but perhaps the organisers could indicate an area of Nariobi? Thanks! --Dimi z (talk) 11:53, 25 November 2024 (UTC)

@Dimi z, Please check the Travel page for more information regarding your request. Joris Darlington Quarshie (talk) 14:56, 20 December 2024 (UTC)

Hello @Zipper ffsgb,

No please there's no Wikimania Conference in South Africa. Wikimania 2025 is only happening in Nairobi and Online. Joris Darlington Quarshie (talk) 11:31, 5 December 2024 (UTC)

Proposals for talks/workshops etc

Where is the page where one puts forward proposals tor presentations/ workshops etc? I cannot come, but am hoping to give an online presentation. MargaretRDonald (talk) 18:55, 2 December 2024 (UTC)

Hello @MargaretRDonald,

The call for proposals has not yet been launched. Once the call for proposals is launched we will definitely be having a page for the call. Joris Darlington Quarshie (talk) 11:33, 5 December 2024 (UTC)
