Wikipedia:Meetup/NYC/Wikidata Day 2022

Event will be at Brooklyn Public Library by Grand Army Plaza.

Wikidata Day in New York City is being hosted by Wikimedia NYC on Saturday, October 29, 2022, and marks the Wikidata 10th Birthday with a celebration and mini-conference. The event will be held at Brooklyn Public Library by Grand Army Plaza, in the Central Library's Info Commons Lab.

It is inspired by such past events as the Wikipedia Day tradition in New York City.

All attendees are subject to Wikimedia NYC's Code of Conduct. In addition, to participate in person you should be vaccinated and also be sure to respect others' personal space, and we may limit overall attendance size if appropriate. Brooklyn Public Library encourages the wearing of masks when indoors, and especially be mindful of those in your proximity.

The all-day event will feature beginner workshops, keynote presentations, breakout group discussions, lightning talks and yes, cake.

We are also glad to be joined by the co-located OpenStreetMap NYC group.
