Kia ora, did you know about the WP conference in Christchurch in May?
[edit]Kia ora, I'm just checking that you know that there is a Wikipedia conference in Christchurch in May? We have some funding available to assist people from outside Christchurch to attend (by covering their travel costs). Would be great to see you there! Registrations are open here: https://events.humanitix.com/2025-wikicon-aotearoa-chch Or feel free to put any questions on my talk page. Regards, MM MurielMary (talk) 06:16, 15 January 2025 (UTC)
- Thank you. I am aware of the conference. I regret that I do not expect to attend.-Gadfium (talk) 07:40, 15 January 2025 (UTC)
