Abstract
A discussion about Wikimedia conferences worldwide. We have Wikimania, national Wikimedia conferences and regional events. How can these be coordinated, how can we make sure they do not interfere. How can the conference be used optimally to strengthen communities, to transfer maximal knowledge, and skills. What are the problems you will face as organizer, what are the opportunities? The central theme will be the coordination among the different events.
