  1. Gertrude206 Sorry I can't come today. There may be someone who comes along to find out about creating a WP article about skydiving in NZ. I was talking to him the other day.

Agenda

  • Introduction to meet up by organisers
  • Round table for participants to say what you’re working on and if you need help with anything - bring along your Wikipedia, Wikidata, or Wikimedia problems
  • Highlighted research resource - Read the Plaque - Map of plaques, their images and text from around the world
  • Get on with problem solving, editing, and chatting

Outcomes

[edit]

We had a visit from Wellington Skydiving Historical Society member Murray Fryer. He came on a "reconnaissance mission" to scope the possibility of collating historical materials relating to skydiving in New Zealand, with a view to also creating WP NZ skydiving articles.
