EMWCon
EMWCon, or the Enterprise MediaWiki Conference, was an annual event held from 2016 to 2023 which included talks, workshops and tutorials relating to the use of MediaWiki outside of Wikimedia sites, including by companies, organizations and government agencies. It was spun off from SMWCon, or the Semantic MediaWiki Conference, which began as a twice-annual event in 2010 but became once-annual in 2016. EMWCon was generally held in the United States in the spring, while SMWCon was generally held in Europe in the fall.
The MediaWiki Users and Developers Conference (MWCon) began in 2024, and is the successor to both EMWCon and SMWCon. Despite the differences in names, the three conferences have had roughly the same mix of subject matter in practice; though MWCon has a broader stated focus than the other two.
