Let's gather info on who wants to do it when and try to set a date by December 15, 2004. -- Jmabel | Talk 00:29, Dec 9, 2004 (UTC)
So far we have 3.9 (!) for the 15th and 3 for the 29th. Not much of a turnout, either way. This is not looking encouraging, though I'd gladly get together with 2.9 of my colleagues... -- Jmabel | Talk 05:37, Dec 19, 2004 (UTC)
I've dropped a message about the jan 15 meetup on the user talk page of everyone I know is even vaguely active and lives in striking distance. I'm sure a lot of others have never listed their locations, so I'm unaware they live near here... -- Jmabel | Talk 07:13, Dec 23, 2004 (UTC)
I assume we'll refactor this comment somewhere into Wikipedia:Meetup/Seattle/Jan 15, 2004 or something like that. I just wanted to note that I've started Wikipedia:Museum projects, per discussion at the meetup. I will contribute more to it later. My first project will probably be a collaboration with a museum volunteer I know in Lincoln County, Oregon. Great to see you all again! DanKeshet 04:28, Jan 16, 2005 (UTC)
1) sorry I missed (both!) Seattle meetups (buried in grad school etc) but I am looking forward to going to the next one, if it happens/hasn't already happened?
2) is anyone else going to wikimania? I am fortuitously in europe anyway, so am going, & hopefully presenting. Brassratgirl 07:26, 25 May 2005 (UTC)
Just a note for anyone watching this page who might be interested. The Vancouver Wikipedians are apparently having a meeting on September 24, with the idea of planning to possibly host Wikimania next year. For more information see this page. I would encourage people to support this effort if you can. -- Michael Snow 23:51, 16 September 2005 (UTC)
I became an editor not long after the last meetup. Are we ready to plan another one? MKoltnow 19:33, 9 October 2007 (UTC)
Hi. Is there going to be a 2010 meeting in Washington, Oregon or Idaho? I haven't gone to one before but I think it would be interesting. Thanks. NeoJustin ( Talk page) 16:48, 12 July 2010 (UTC)
Date? Time? Location? List of targets? -- Dennis Bratland ( talk) 01:28, 13 August 2012 (UTC)
A lot of the articles in Category:Wikipedia requested photographs in Seattle, Washington need proper location or geocoding data added to that they will appear on the Google map. I'm not totally sure how you do it. -- Dennis Bratland ( talk) 20:03, 19 August 2012 (UTC)
I've removed the people and bands from the requested photos category and come up with this list. I'm checking each article for coordinates now so they will show up on the map. -- Dennis Bratland ( talk) 23:58, 1 September 2012 (UTC)
Hey :)
Denny will likely be in Seattle in the last week of April. If there is interest in talking about Wikidata on your side please let me know and we can try to arrange something together. -- Lydia Pintscher (WMDE) ( talk) 13:59, 15 February 2013 (UTC)

Are there any Seattle residents interested in participating in Wiki Loves Pride 2014, a multi-national effort to improve coverage of LGBT-related content at Wikimedia projects? Perhaps an edit-a-thon or a photography project? Please visit the project page for details or let me know if you have any questions. Thanks! -- Another Believer ( Talk) 17:37, 13 May 2014 (UTC)
Hi All! I'm a native Washingtonian (from Mount Vernon) that currently does Wiki stuff in New York and with Wikimedia NYC. I will be in Seattle for the July Wikinic and am looking forward to meeting some Seattle Wikipedians. I hope to talk to you more about Seattle Wikipedia activities at the meetup as I am very interested in the proposed Wikimedia Cascadia Usergroup! If you want to sign on as a founding member of Wikimedia Cascadia (or whatever we will call it!) go to meta:Talk:Cascadia Wikimedians#Sign on to be a Founding Member of Cascadia Wikimedians and contribute to the discussion. Thanks! OR drohowa ( talk) 18:55, 13 June 2014 (UTC)
Hey,
This is an idea that I have been kicking around for a while. I wanted to talk about last meetup, but I had to go early and did not get a chance to raise the issue.
Would any one be interested in a weekly co-editing session? Not an outreach project, just a day and time where people could stop by to edit, chat, relax and have community.
I would mostly be taking responsibility for this. I would make the commitment to be somewhere at a certain time every week with a Wikipedia sign (and if no one else shows up, that is just how I normally edit Wikipedia then...). But, to set the initial day and time I would like to find at least one other person who could make it.
I work remotely and thus have lots of free time, and I live in cap hill: so, something like 1:00-3:00pm Wednesday at the main branch library would be the perfect thing for me. But I imagine not a lot of people could make that, so something like Saturday 1:00-3:00pm in the U District would be acceptable for me as well. 66.235.3.210 ( talk) 21:41, 17 October 2014 (UTC)
Hi all! I've finally uploaded the rest of the photos (besides the group photo on the meetup page) from the last meetup. You can see them on Flickr. I'll upload them to Commons in about a week (without identifying anyone, except Mako since he's got his own category and all). In the meantime, if anyone would like me to remove a portrait of them from the set, just let me know.-- ragesoss ( talk) 05:04, 25 October 2014 (UTC)
The article on Glenn Fleishman was deleted. He's blogging and tweeting about it -- insisting he doesn't care, but still has a lot of time to complain. There's a gamergate hatchet job conspiracy theory. I think *maybe* there's enough to resurrect the article, if you're so inclined. -- Dennis Bratland ( talk) 03:59, 8 April 2015 (UTC)
I'd like to invite folks to add preliminary info for Minnesota's event this year at Wikipedia:Wiknic.-- Pharos ( talk) 18:42, 7 June 2016 (UTC)

I realize this is a Seattle page, but I just wanted to share a Facebook link to an upcoming Wikipedia edit-a-thon in Spokane (October 6): https://www.facebook.com/events/254766412011335/. Thanks! --- Another Believer ( Talk) 18:02, 13 August 2018 (UTC)
I'm sure Seattleites, have know limitations of attracting local groups with our software, limited to watchlist notices. In 2016, WM-NYC filed a task to allow CentralNotice (the banners on top of article pages) to target readers in local areas. Efforts have stalled and to spur progress it would be great if you could support it in the Community Wishlist Survey. Voting ends November 30.
An example, CentralNotices were ran for Wikipedia's 10th birthday. WM-NYC had to cut pre-registration early, unable to accommodate the shear number of people signing up. Subsequent birthdays had at most 1/10 the RSVPs. — Dispenser 11:49, 21 November 2018 (UTC)
Hi friends, as you can imagine, there are a lot of folx in a panic at the moment with the statewide shutdown of schools, bars, restaurants, public places, etc. There's a lot of info floating online about available resources, unemployment, sliding scale offers from the community, but they're pretty scattered across Facebook posts, groups, and websites. Though its been a few years since I've tinkered on this platform, I created new Wiki on by shared hosting space to help bring these resources together and definitely need some help with contributions, as I'm working on it while still working on day job. Please share far and wide, this is meant to be 100% community-driven. https://www.readysetassist.org/wiki/index.php

Hi, all! Since most coffeehouses are still operating with reduced hours in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic, we need to determine somewhere where we can gather. I have given up on an evening venue & am thinking that Saturday or Sunday afternoons would be better.
I am going to suggest the Gathering Space at KEXP-FM. During the weekend days that I have visited, it seems like they have ample space, plus there is a Caffè Vita location there & KEXP's live-streamed music at a volume conducive to conversation. KEXP is located at 472 1st Ave N, Seattle WA 98109 in the northwestern end of Seattle Center. Peaceray ( talk) 21:02, 30 January 2023 (UTC)
