Complete Participants list

Use Telegram to communicate with others!
To enhance the social experience among participants, we have created a Telegram Group Chat "Wikimedia Hackathon" @wmhack, which everyone can join via t.me/wmhack.

We do not save your phone number! We will share news and updates from the organisers’ side via the group, but you can also use it for your ideas, suggestions and organizing yourself.

Set it up in 2 minutes: (If you have Telegram already, you can skip step 1)
 * 1) Install the Telegram app for your platform (direct links here: Android, iPhone/iPad, Windows Phone, macOS, PC/Mac/Linux)
 * 2) * or use the Web-version
 * 3) Click the invitation-link to join the group chat directly: bit.ly/joinwmhackchat (this is a shortened url which converts to: https://t.me/joinchat/AAAAAEKHB0ro4AcIPibLaw)
 * 4) * or access via t.me/wmhack
 * 5) * or find the group chat by searching for "wmhack" or "Wikimedia Hackathon" directly within the app

Mentoring Program
for infos on this year's new initiative for newcomers, please refer to the Mentoring Program subpage (coming soon).

Event Photography
Event photography means taking photos during the hackathon and uploading them to Wikimedia Commons.

All participants who didn’t agree to have their picture taken are recognizable by special orange lanyards with a “no-photo” print on them.

The regular lanyards are black.

Please put all of your hackathon images uploaded to Wikimedia Commons into the Category:Wikimedia Hackathon Vienna 2017 (or, even better, into fitting subcategories). If you have any questions regarding photography during the hackathon, please reach out to User:Tsui.

Event Blogging
Event blogging means publishing your personal experiences and impression of the hackathon. Soon, we will add a special section here, which you can use to put links to your personal blog page, or to your user subpage, or a Wikipedia Signpost article that you contributed to, or to your public social media entries (use #wmhack) etc.

If you manage to do this even during the hackathon, and not only afterwards, more people will enjoy it!

Host
As a host, please approach other participants  proactively, especially at social events and during mealtime - make sure that nobody feels left out just because he or she doesn’t know many other participants yet. Get familiar with our friendly space policy and the code of conduct for Wikimedia technical spaces as well as with the floor plan and the event management team’s faces. This will support you with helping others.

Mid-event Wiki-updates
For the mid-event wiki-updates, please occasionally wander around the hackathon, ask people what they are working on and add/assist with adding the projects to the wiki. Your task is to make sure that the projects are documented. Please also remind other participants to sign up for the hackathon showcase.

Post-event Note / Outcome Checking
Post-event note / outcome checking means to help to review documentation after the event, e.g. on Phabricator. You would help to make sure everything is clear and organized, and that next steps have owners.
