Scheduled meetups in Seattle

[edit]

Wikipedia:Meetup/Seattle is a meeting in Seattle which often, but not always, takes place on or around the third Tuesday evening of every month. The purpose of the meeting is to socialize, collaborate Wikipedia projects among Seattle-area Wikipedia users, and to share in-person Wikipedia knowledge. The meetup is entirely volunteer run. Meetings are free to attend but you will need to buy your own food and beverages. If you plan to come, please consider putting your name on the list! Drop-ins are also welcome.

Will bring a few useful books to aid in the effort. Sounder Bruce 03:37, 5 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
- @SounderBruce: If you post a list of ISBNs on the talk page, I will prepare a list of citations, including links to online or previews for the books. You don't need to post them all at once; I will just process them intermittently until the day before. Peaceray (talk) 18:08, 19 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  - @Peaceray: Added a few to the talk page. I also have some books on hold at the branch that should hopefully be ready for Saturday. Sounder Bruce 03:37, 5 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

what I'm a seattle local, but a brand new wikipedian local, what happens at these events? -Dankopedia

Hi @Dankopedia, and welcome to Wikipedia! Please remember to sign your comments with four tildes (~). Typically we chat about articles or other projects we're currently working on Wikipedia, or upcoming things we hope to do here! Sometimes there's a lot of small talk or discussion of Seattle area-related events or topics, like local transit. Most people bring laptops to work on articles/etc but it's not required. The cafe the meetup happens in has both drinks and snacks. Sarsenet (talk) 09:07, 5 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
