Meetup group
I'm planning a meetup to coincide with the Great American Wiknic, and have created Wikipedia:Meetup/Detroit to organize it. If you've ever been interested in becoming more involved in the Detroit and Wikipedia community this would be a great time to start. The current plan involves having the Wiknic at Wayne State University's Campus, as a part of the Detroit Windsor International Film Festival Tech Fair. Keep an eye on the meetup page for more information as it becomes available.
