<br />
===Is the conference just for English Wikipedia?===<br />
This conference targets Wikipedians in the United States, but anyone is welcome attend, particularly, people interested in Wikipedia/Wikimedia from all over North America. <br />
<br />
The conference will be conducted in English, but those editing other language Wikipedias are welcomed to attend.<br />
<br />
===Do I need to register for the conference in order to attend?=== <br />
We ask that attendees register in advance to facilitate planning.<br />
<br />
Those planning to attend should plan their travel arrangements and accommodations as soon as possible, since New York City is major tourist attraction. Even expensive hotels can be sold out months well before a planned visit.<br />
<br />

<br />
==Accommodations==<br />
===Where can I stay near the conference?===<br />
There is a list of cheap places, to stay such as hostels, that are either close to the conference venue, or are easy for transportation using mass transit. However, note that the subway station nearest the venue (Franklin Street station on the #1 train) is NOT handicap accessible.<br />
<br />
Some suggestions for venues include the following:<br />
*[http://hinewyork.org/ Hostel International New York City], less than $50 per night, and the most recommended option for being the best value<br />
<br />
===The cheap accommodations are all taken! Where can I find an inexpensive hotel?===<br />
Consider visiting the Wikivoyage guide to [[voy:New York City|New York City]] for suggestions. <br />
<br />
===I found a cheap hostel but on the map it seems far away; should I stay there?===<br />
Check Google Maps for travel times. Many people in New York City have daily commutes which are one hour each way or longer, and traveling on the subway is part of local culture.<br />
<br />
Attendees visiting from elsewhere are advised to stay in New York City, near a subway line, and as close as reasonable when considering the available options and one’s own budget.<br />
<br />
===Scholarships===<br />
How do I apply for a scholarship to attend the conference?<br />
See the scholarship page and submit the application to the scholarship committee.<br />
<br />
===How do I know if I qualify for a scholarship?===<br />
See the scholarships page for more details, but in general, have some history of participation in a Wikimedia project and be ready to describe that to the scholarship committee.<br />
<br />
==Conference Program and Schedule==<br />
===What should I do if I have an idea for a workshop or panel?===<br />
Propose it! There are multiple conference tracks and the conference is being organized so that attendees of the conference can present to each other. We invite you to be creative with your proposals and welcome proposals for workshop, panels, case-studies, group editing and tech trainings, and other formats you can think of!</div>Jihyunbhttps://wikiconference.org/index.php?title=2014/Main_Page&diff=5462014/Main Page2014-05-16T19:44:37Z<p>Jihyunb: </p>

==General Information==<br />

WikiConference USA is the first national Wikimedia conference of its kind in the United States. The conference will be held on May 30 – June 1, 2014 at New York Law School, located in Tribeca district of Manhattan, New York City. WikiConference USA’s program will be devoted to topics concerning the Wikimedia movement in the United States, as well as related topics of free culture and digital rights.<br />
WikiConference USA will feature a diverse array of conference offerings such as keynotes, presentations, panels, and workshop sessions; provide a lounge space and break areas for conference attendees to gather and mingle; and host an unconference day for attendees to design their own schedule and engage with each other around common interests.<br />
<br />
===What will happen at the conference?===<br />

<br />
<br />
===How much does the conference cost?===<br />
WikiConference USA is free to attend. Registration is here: http://wikiconferenceusa.org/wiki/Registration.<br />

<br />
<br />

<br />

You do not have to be a Wikipedia editor to attend. New contributors and those not yet contributing, but interested in becoming an editor are as welcome as well. <br />
<br />
We invite newcomers to experience The Wikipedia Adventure, a beginner’s introduction to Wikipedia.<br />
<br />
<br />
===Is the conference just for English Wikipedia?===<br />
This conference targets Wikipedians in the United States, but anyone is welcome attend, particularly, people interested in Wikipedia/Wikimedia from all over North America. <br />
<br />
The conference will be conducted in English, but those editing other language Wikipedias are welcomed to attend.<br />
<br />
===Do I need to register for the conference in order to attend?=== <br />
We ask that attendees register in advance to facilitate planning.<br />
<br />
Those planning to attend should plan their travel arrangements and accommodations as soon as possible, since New York City is major tourist attraction. Even expensive hotels can be sold out months well before a planned visit.<br />
<br />
===Who can I contact about bringing a large group?===<br />
Please contact wikicon@wikimedianyc.org if you want to bring a group.<br />
<br />

<br />
<br />
==Accommodations==<br />
===Where can I stay near the conference?===<br />
There is a list of cheap places, to stay such as hostels, that are either close to the conference venue, or are easy for transportation using mass transit. However, note that the subway station nearest the venue (Fulton Street station on the #1 train) is NOT handicap accessible.<br />
<br />
Some suggestions for venues include the following:<br />
*[http://hinewyork.org/ Hostel International New York City], less than $50 per night, and the most recommended option for being the best value<br />
<br />
<br />
===The cheap accommodations are all taken! Where can I find an inexpensive hotel?===<br />
Consider visiting the Wikivoyage guide to [[voy:New York City|New York City]] for suggestions. <br />
<br />
<br />
===I found a cheap hostel but on the map it seems far away; should I stay there?===<br />
Check Google Maps for travel times. Many people in New York City are willing to accept daily commutes which are one hour each way, and traveling on the subway is part of local culture.<br />
<br />
Attendees visiting from elsewhere are advised to stay in New York City, near a subway line, and as close as reasonable when considering the available options and one’s own budget.<br />
<br />
<br />
===Scholarships===<br />
How do I apply for a scholarship to attend the conference?<br />
See the scholarship page and submit the application to the scholarship committee.<br />
<br />
<br />
===How do I know if I qualify for a scholarship?===<br />
See the scholarships page for more details, but in general, have some history of participation in a Wikimedia project and be ready to describe that to the scholarship committee.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
==Conference Program and Schedule==<br />
===What should I do if I have an idea for a workshop or panel?===<br />
<br />
You should propose it. There are multiple conference tracks and the conference is being organized so that attendees of the conference can present to each other.</div>Jihyunbhttps://wikiconference.org/index.php?title=2014/Contact&diff=672014/Contact2014-01-26T22:01:27Z<p>Jihyunb: /* General Inquiries */</p>

We invite attendees to submit proposals for panels, workshops, seminars, and other presentations in topics that fall under topics related to Wikipedia or free culture. To assist you, we have created five themes for the conference:<br />
<br />
====Community====<br />
:''Why do people contribute to Wikipedia?''<br />
:''What are the major concerns of Wikipedia contributors and readers, and how can we address them?'' <br />
:''How might we broaden and diversify the community (in terms of professional experience, multicultural and gender participation), while building on the original grassroots spirit of the project?'' <br />
<br />
Proposals under this theme could explore the dynamics of wiki culture and community, and provide a forum for participants and researchers to share methods for community management, engagement, participation, and conflict resolution. <br />

<br />

===Proposal Topics===<br />
We invite attendees to submit proposals for panels, workshops, seminars, and other presentations in topics that fall under topics related to Wikipedia or free culture. To assist you, we have created five themes for the conference:<br />
<br />
====Community====<br />
:''Why do people contribute to Wikipedia?''<br />
:''What are the major concerns of Wikipedia contributors and readers, and how can we address them?'' <br />
:''How might we broaden and diversify the community (in terms of professional experience, multicultural and gender participation), while building on the original grassroots spirit of the project?'' <br />
<br />
Proposals under this theme could explore the dynamics of wiki culture and community, and provide a forum for participants and researchers to share methods for community management, engagement, participation, and conflict resolution. <br />
<br />
Topic areas under this theme may include: <br />
*paid editing, generic advocacy editing, and conflict of interest editing;<br />
*multicultural, linguistic, and gender diversity on Wikipedia;<br />
*dispute resolution for Wikimedia projects; <br />
*discrepancies and conflicts between different policies; and<br />
*community and chapter dialogue.<br />
<br />
Beyond a critique of the current situation, we hope that the track will lead to suggestions for future improvement and reconciliation between people in conflict with one another.<br />
<br />
====Advocacy & Outreach====<br />
:''How do contributors find community, local and global?''<br />
:''How do usergroups and chapters mobilize independent contributors?''<br />
:''How does the Wikimedia community fit into the global conversation about open culture, information freedom, and digital rights?''<br />
<br />
Proposals under this theme could focus on outreach to diverse institutions and communities to promote Wikipedia’s mission.<br />
<br />
Topics under this theme may include:<br />
*local community building and outreach events; <br />
*broad campaigns like Wiki Loves Monuments and Wikipedia Loves Libraries;<br />
*copyright licensing and legislative reform (for example, orphan works);<br />
*building partnerships with open access allies;<br />
*free culture advocacy;<br />
*methods for digital collaboration;<br />
*internal and external grant funding for Wikimedia chapters and contributors;<br />
*effective use of social media to promote chapter activities; and<br />
*strategies and tactics for effective advocacy<br />
<br />
====Technology & Infrastructure==== <br />
:“How can we empower the non-tech contributors to participate in technological development?”<br />
:”How can we make tools more user-friendly for the non-tech users?”<br />
:”How can communities more effectively and sustainably contribute to the development of new tools for Wikimedia?”<br />
:”How we can empower our Wikimedia community on privacy and cybersecurity?”<br />
<br />

===Proposal Topics===<br />
We invite attendees to submit proposals for panels, workshops, seminars, and other presentations in topics that fall under topics related to Wikipedia or free culture. To assist you, we have created five themes for the conference:<br />
<br />
====Community====<br />
:''Why do people contribute to Wikipedia?''<br />
:''What are the major concerns of Wikipedia contributors and readers, and how can we address them?'' <br />
:''How might we broaden and diversify the community (in terms of professional experience, multicultural and gender participation), while building on the original grassroots spirit of the project?'' <br />
<br />
Proposals under this theme could explore the dynamics of wiki culture and community, and provide a forum for participants and researchers to share methods for community management, engagement, participation, and conflict resolution. <br />
<br />
Topic areas under this theme may include: <br />
*paid editing, generic advocacy editing, and conflict of interest editing;<br />
*multicultural, linguistic, and gender diversity on Wikipedia;<br />
*dispute resolution for Wikimedia projects; <br />
*discrepancies and conflicts between different policies; and<br />
*community and chapter dialogue.<br />
<br />
Beyond a critique of the current situation, we hope that the track will lead to suggestions for future improvement and reconciliation between people in conflict with one another.<br />
<br />
====Advocacy & Outreach====<br />
:''How do contributors find community, local and global?''<br />
:''How do usergroups and chapters mobilize independent contributors?''<br />
:''How does the Wikimedia community fit into the global conversation about open culture, information freedom, and digital rights?''<br />
<br />
Proposals under this theme could focus on outreach to diverse institutions and communities to promote Wikipedia’s mission.<br />
<br />
Topics under this theme may include:<br />
*local community building and outreach events; <br />

*effective use of social media to promote chapter activities; and<br />
*strategies and tactics for effective advocacy<br />
<br />
====Technology & Infrastructure==== <br />
:“How can we empower the non-tech contributors to participate in technological development?”<br />
:”How can we make tools more user-friendly for the non-tech users?”<br />
