Hi,

In the History section, you've picked a couple of "notable" locations.
To me it's not clear why these locations are notable (compared to the others) and why you wouldn't just list all the editions.

There could also be a paragraph on the organization of the event. How every year a new local team organizes it how they see fit, while a core group helps maintain continuity.
This results in every edition having a different identity and focus while still feeling like part of the same series.

I think it might also be nice to include some links to some of the projects and organizations that were presented at WBM, like Libre Router, OpenWISP, Coolab and NYC Mesh. Maybe even link directly to the recordings?

I think most people might read the wiki page, but won't do a deep dive into the main WBM page to find the past schedules.

Hi!

Thanks for creating the Wikipedia page. I agree with Thijs, a list of
all editions would be preferred. The WBM wiki page has a lot of more
information that can be included, but it's a good starting point.

Best Regards,
Filipe Teixeira

Thanks for input. I appreciate ideas, but need more.

All can be done in some way at least (external neutral/academic/web
references are essential) but not all at once and not from wikis, blogs and
social media?so please help advance that part by working with
partners/symphatizers :-)

I would have started with updating now as I am on the long train ride
Berlin > Amsterdam (goVolta) without internet, power sockets and my laptop
died recently :-/

Anyone in Amsterdam? Can anyone meet in some library/indy space and help
work on this? I also wanna translate it to local HR/SH/BS languages next
week if it ripens ;-)
