It is a community event, which is also open to the public and to scientists. Wikimania is a place for editors and users of the Wikimedia projects around the globe (Wikipedia, Wikibooks, Wikisource, Wikinews, Wiktionary, and Wikiversity) to gather, to meet each other, to exchange ideas, and to report on research and projects. This year's conference will be held from August 3-5, 2007 in Taipei, Taiwan at Chien Tan Overseas Youth Activity Center <http://www.cyh.org.tw/center/center_bu.php?loginno=&buid=B>.

Wikimania 2007: Inbjudan till deltagande Om Wikimania Wikimania är ett årligt återkommande världsomspännande evenemang, ägnat åt Wikipedia och Wikimedia Foundations övriga projekt. Det är ett evenemang för gemenskapen kring Wikimedia, och även är öppet för allmänheten och för vetenskapsmän. Wikimania är ett tillfälle för användare på Wikimediaprojekt världen över (Wikipedia, Wikibooks, Wikisource, Wikinews, Wiktionary och Wikiversity) att samlas, träffas, utbyta idéer, och berätta om forskning och olika projekt. Detta års konferens kommer att hållas 3-5 augusti i Taipei i Taiwan, på Chien Tan Overseas Youth Activity Center. Vi tar nu emot anmälningar av material till konferensen i form av affischer (posters), föredrag, workshop och diskussionssessioner. Vi kan också ta emot förslag på talare och debattpaneler, och förslag till andra aktiviteter. Lägg märke till specifikationerna nedan, och var djärv i era bidrag! Viktiga datum 1 mars - 30 april: förslag och bidrag kan skickas in 1 maj - 31 maj: Feedback och bekräftelse på om bidrag tas med 3 aug – 5 aug: Wikimania Konferensteman Bidrag inom ett eller flera av följande teman är välkomna: Wikimediagemenskaper – Intressanta projekt och särdrag inom gemenskaperna (vi välkomnar särskilt presentationer av din lokala Wikimediaprojektsgemenskap!); skapande av policy inom enskilda projekt; konflikthantering och dynamiken inom gemenskapen; rykte och identitet; flerspråkighet; språk och kultur; sociala studier. Öppet innehåll – Öppen tillgång till information; metoder för att samla in och distribuera fri kunskap, användning av Wikimediaprojekt inom utbildning, journalistik, forskning; metoder för att förbättra kvalitet och användbarhet; copyrightlagar och andra legala områden som berör Wikimediaprojekt. Teknisk infrastruktur – Frågor som rör utveckling och utbyggnad av Mediawiki; hårdvarukonfiguration för Wikimedia; nya utvecklingsidéer (inklusive användbara fallstudier från andra wikier eller liknande projekt). Ditt ämne måste beröra Wikimediaprojekt och dessas gemenskaper eller skapandet av fritt innehåll i allmänhet. Om ditt ämne faller utanför skapandet av fritt innhåll och wikimediagemenskaper, men berör wikier och gemenskaper runt andra applikationer så är WikiSym 2007-konferensen <http://www.wikisym.org/ws2007/> (21-23 oktober 2007, Montreal) eller ett Recent Changes camp kanske ett bättre forum.
