- Very descriptive article! I noticed Jimmy Wales said something about improving Wikinews, etc. Why isn't this on Wikinews too? xD Diego talk 00:05, 9 August 2011 (UTC)
Done See Wikinews Water Cooler. —Tom Morris (talk) 06:56, 9 August 2011 (UTC)
- I'm afraid the Chapters Committee did not meet at all (or plan to) - there was a Chapters Meeting though: for both chapters and interested foundation people (there were none of the latter category this year as far as I recall) or others. effeietsanders 05:20, 9 August 2011 (UTC)

- I see no bot reversion in the talkpage version history. What's Jimmy referring to exactly? --Cybercobra (talk) 06:39, 9 August 2011 (UTC)
- Jimmy was saying he edited WP:RM directly. —Tom Morris (talk) 06:57, 9 August 2011 (UTC)
- And while Wikimania is technically over,Harej and I discussed a user-freindliness upgrade to his bot, at 1:30 this morning on the Technion campus, here in Haifa. What a productive event it has been. Rich Farmbrough, 08:05, 9 August 2011 (UTC).

- For audio coverage of the conference, the Wikipedia Weekly podcast recorded three episodes, including an interview with Jimmy Wales and one covering GLAM exclusively. It can be found here: Wikipedia Weekly. -- Fuzheado | Talk 18:32, 9 August 2011 (UTC)
- Congratulations on the comeback of "Wikipedia Weekly" and thanks for pointing out that the link was missing - it was however present in the shorter Wikimania summary in "News and notes".
- On participant blogged a "Best of Wikimania 2011" collection of quotes and tweets from the conference, also worth reading.

- Domus, an Italian art/architecture magazine, covered Wikimania in their "Design" section, which is quite interesting to me. It seems that Wikipedia's presence "in real life" is becoming more and more prominent. /ƒETCHCOMMS/ 20:47, 11 August 2011 (UTC)
- Just two comments - the early commers party was on Wednesday, but the conference itself started on Thursday; more then 726 people attended the conference (726 badges were given, but some entered without badges). Deror (talk) 09:28, 16 August 2011 (UTC)
