Michigan Wikipedians meeting

Hello! I'm interested in attending a Michigan Wikipedians meeting. However, I need a clarification about the meeting time/location: the MLibrary Guide says that you meet Thursday at 8:00PM in Room 4041 of Shapiro Library, but your group page says you meet every Monday at 8:00PM at the Language Resource Center in the basement of North Quadrangle. I assume that since the Monday edit was made in September 2013, you now meet in NQ? Thanks! Stara729 (talk) 21:14, 23 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, Stara729, we now meet in the Language Resource Center in the basement of North Quad at 8pm every Monday. This was a change that was just made this September for logistical reasons. Please, feel free to join us at any (or all) of our meetings. Take care! Michael Barera (talk) 23:07, 23 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks! What sort of things do you do at meetings, anyway? I'm quite curious :) Stara729 (talk) 02:15, 24 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

It depends. Sometimes it is low-key, just editing Wikipedia together in a friendly and collaborative environment. Sometimes we put together presentations or mini-workshops, and we are preparing a topical series that is open to the public for the rest of this semester on the first Monday of each month. The first will be November 4 on the subject of creating an account and learning how to edit, while the second will be on December 2, possibly on uploading images to Wikimedia Commons. We are small and flexible, however, so we'd be very open to your suggestions if there is something that you'd like to see at one of our meetings.

Thank you! I think I will try to come to the next meeting. I'm actually using Wikipedia as a social media study for one of my classes, and I think this would be helpful as a supplement. Plus, I think I need to learn more about Wikipedia beyond the basics. Stara729 (talk) 16:18, 24 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]
