All Wikipedia Day volunteers must wear face masks unless eating/drinking, and we request attendees to follow their lead. All attendees are subject to Wikimedia NYC's Code of Conduct, and to participate in person you should be vaccinated, and use a face mask whenever you are in proximity to others. Attendees can find face masks at registration. Also be sure to respect others' personal space, and in the event of crowding we will designate strict mask-required zones

Lightning talks

Add your 3-5 minute lightning talk here! Lightning talks may cover a wide range of topics related to Wikipedia, Wikimedia, and AI as relevant to the larger free culture movement, although we ask that lightning talks aren't used to promote or sell products and services. We have space on the schedule for about 10 of them. Topics may be subject to review by event volunteers, so signing up here doesn't guarantee you'll go on.

1. Portal:Current events, the proudly boring and surprisingly popular online news source, and its potential for careful AI-assisted growth.--Pharos (talk) 20:10, 7 January 2024 (UTC)
2. Add your talk here!

Sign up

On-wiki RSVP is highly encouraged, but Eventbrite RSVP is required for the university's security desk.
