Hi Fae, Maybe hiding vital information from the community is consistent with the best practices in the industry[1 <https://www.quora.com/Why-was-the-user-Russavia-globally-locked-by-the-Wikimedia-Foundation>] and what they call "Transparency" is just another way say that is not profitable for the WMF to hold Wikimania in remote, non-commercial centers. Or maybe they are just too used to stay in 5 star hotels while the community stays in dorms and just don't care anymore.
