Latest revision as of 23:01, 18 November 2021

WikiConference North America 2021 takes place over three days, October 8 - 10.

We have several concurrent tracks:

  • Tracks Red and Blue are filled with presentations. These are also live-streamed to YouTube and available in both English and Spanish.
  • Track Green is primarily workshops and discussions.
  • The edit-a-thons track holds edit-a-thons and other collaborative sessions.
  • The Unconference is where anyone can propose or spontaneously organize a mini-presentation, discussion, or workshop on a wiki-related topic. Please add sessions to our unconference page.

There are 5 unscheduled minutes between most sessions to allow for session wrap-ups, switching rooms, and taking quick breaks.

We use JavaScript to adapt the schedule to your local timezone and to reload this page when the schedule changes. Use this link if you want to see the unadapted schedule in U.S. Eastern Time, or to avoid the automatic reloading.

Translation

We're pleased to provide translations between English and Spanish for our Blue and Red tracks!

When watching a presentation in either of those tracks, you will see an option on the right-hand column to change your language and receive an audio feed from a live interpreter. Attendees may also change Hopin's interface language by clicking their avatar at the top-right and selecting "Languages" in the dropdown.

Friday, October 8
