| Adelaide Meetup Next: 4 September 2026 Last: 7 August 2026 |
Hi Bilby, as a participant in WikiProject South Australia, I'm just letting you know about this training session next Friday, which will feature a guest speaker from Butterfly Conservation SA. While it's primarily aimed at newcomers, it would be great to have your participation in assisting with the event, or having a catchup with local Wikimedia staff after their recent attendance at Wikimania in Paris. Registration details for in-person or Zoom session and more resources are on the event page, which also includes, at the bottom of the page, a list of suggested articles for improvement, with references. Cheers, Bahudhara (talk) 07:46, 31 July 2026 (UTC)
