Hi all,
A reminder that our October meetup will take place on October 9th, 6.30pm at
Double Union. Registration is here:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Event:Bay_Area_Meetup_October_2025. We'll have a
short presentation on collaborating with Galleries, Libraries, Archives and
Museums based on the GLAM bootcamp that happened in DC last week, and organize
for our upcoming lunch and learn series with the San Francisco Historical
Society. Then have our usual coworking tables and editing support (as well as
pizza and drinks. We will get non fuzzy drinks).
We also wanted to share with you our dashboard numbers; it appears that the 194
editors who have registered for our meetups since April have collectively added
342k words to wiki projects! The dashboard is set up to track edits of meetup
participants for the month following the event, and demonstrate the impact of
the meetups to sustain regular editing efforts. All stats here:

All are also welcome to the community event: The Life of a Wikipedia Editor,
and How You Can Join on Tuesday, October 7, 2025, 6:00 PM - 7:30 PM at North
Beach Library.
Our November meetup will be November 14th. Registration here:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Event:Bay_Area_Meetup_November_2025. We will be
celebrating Wikidata's birthday with cake and lightning talks about open data.
If you would like to talk about an open data project or knows someone with a
cool open data project, please reach out!
Our December meetup will be on December 10th - please note the change of date!
This is a Wednesday, to accommodate the SFPL librarian who will come to talk
about using their databases and newspaper archives for editing local pages and
news. This will also kickstart our local pages project, aiming to more
systematically keep them updated and free of partisan interference.

Finally, please save the date for Sunday January 24th! SFPL has offered to host
us in their event space at the main to celebrate Wikipedia's 25th birthday. If
you have suggestions or requests for this event please add them here:
