The Wikimania is the largest meeting of the Wikipedia-Community worldwide and is taking place every year at another city around the world. It is fully organised by volunteers. | |||
This years Wikimania was taking place in Washington, D.C. and was organised by the US-Sub-Chapter Wikimedia D.C. As it already did last year, Wikimedia Austria sponsored scholarships for Austrian participants. Nine of ten scholarships were given to Austrian Wikipedians travelling to the USA. The application- and pre-selection-process was organised by the Scholarship commitee of the Wikimania 2012. Surprisingly many nonmembers and not yet known persons for WMAT applicated this year. All Austrian applications were successful. | |||
Some of the Austrian participants also held lectures at the Wikimania: | |||
* '''Wiki Loves Monuments in Austria – Challenges and Solutions''' Michael Kranewitter, Alexander Wagner (http://wikimania2012.wikimedia.org/wiki/Submissions/Wiki_Loves_Monuments_in_Austria_%E2%80%93_Challenges_and_Solutions) | |||
* '''Wikipedian Among Professionals''' Ralf Roletschek (http://wikimania2012.wikimedia.org/wiki/Submissions/Wikipedian_among_Professionals) | |||
* '''CiviCRM – The Swiss Army knife for chapters''' Holger Motzkau, Manuel Schneider (http://wikimania2012.wikimedia.org/wiki/Submissions/civiCRM) | |||
* '''WikiTV''' Manuel Schneider, Marco Fleckinger, Julius Kratky (remote per SwitchX) (http://wikimania2012.wikimedia.org/wiki/Submissions/WikiTV) | |||
During the Wikimania the team of WikiTV and some other interested people visited the ORF-office in Washington, D.C. | |||
An important meeting during the Wikimania was the foundation-meeting of the Wikimedia Chapters Association, where ''Manuel Schneider'' was participating for Austria. There the WCA was founded and the 18 delegates elected a chairman (User ''Fæ'') and the vice-chairman (''Ziko van Dijk''). Subsequent to the Wikimania there were commitee meetings about budget, staff recruitment and Chapter-audits held. | |||
