Plan for the event[edit]
Sky Harbor from the Philippines would like to attend and has indicated the dates when he (she?) is free. What about Tuesday, 30 October? — Cheers, JackLee –talk– 10:54, 4 October 2012 (UTC)
- I'm a he, and I'm arriving in Changi from Jakarta on the 30th at 7:00 pm. I can either catch up somewhere, or we can meet either on the 20th, 21st, 22nd or 31st. :) --Sky Harbor (talk) 12:03, 4 October 2012 (UTC)
- Wednesday, 31 October, is OK for me too. — Cheers, JackLee –talk– 12:52, 4 October 2012 (UTC)
- Shall we all go in costume for Halloween? :P --Sky Harbor (talk) 14:51, 4 October 2012 (UTC)
- Wednesday, 31 October, is OK for me too. — Cheers, JackLee –talk– 12:52, 4 October 2012 (UTC)
- Is the date locked in? There are 100s of people to be invited.. ;-) John Vandenberg (chat) 23:44, 10 October 2012 (UTC)
- Just heard from Francis Bond. He may propose another date as 31 October is not good for him, apparently. — Cheers, JackLee –talk– 06:31, 11 October 2012 (UTC)
- Actually 31st is now OK --- I am checking the availability of hackerspace (which looks ok, but hasn't been confirmed yet). Francis Bond (talk) 01:12, 12 October 2012 (UTC)

- OK, the 31st is confirmed at the Hackerspace so the date and time are locked in. Please invite 100s of people and someone suggest an agenda. Francis Bond (talk) 09:12, 15 October 2012 (UTC)
- Great . I'll send out the invites tomorrow morning (I am training someone how to use mw:Manual:pywikipedia). Last time I notified 152 enwp people, five zhwp people, four idwp people, four frwp people, two mswp people, one jawp person = 169 people. Category:Wikipedians in Singapore now has 175 distinct members, so there has been growth ;-)
- Last time the invite message was "Hi there! You are cordially invited to a meetup next Tuesday evening (4 September). Details and an attendee list are at Wikipedia:Meetup/Singapore 6. Hope to see you there! John Vandenberg xx:xx, xx August 2012 (UTC)" Obviously this needs to change as I wont be there this time. Let me know what you want the message to be. John Vandenberg (chat) 13:00, 15 October 2012 (UTC)
- Whoops. I forgot about these five or six. John Vandenberg (chat) 13:26, 15 October 2012 (UTC)
You can also organise a WP:GEONOTICE to inform everyone who checks their watchlist while they are in Singapore. John Vandenberg (chat) 13:03, 15 October 2012 (UTC)
- How about something like "Hi there! You are cordially invited to a meetup on Wednesday the 31st of October. Details and an attendee list are at Wikipedia:Meetup/Singapore 7. Hope you can make it." You can sing it as you or me, whichever you think is more appropriate: you are sending the message, I am hosting the meeting. Francis Bond (talk) 14:37, 15 October 2012 (UTC)
- I sent out 172 enwp invites to people who are in Category:Wikipedians in Singapore.. John Vandenberg (chat) 12:57, 16 October 2012 (UTC)
- And another 36 enwp invite for people who arnt in Category:Wikipedians in Singapore (yet?). John Vandenberg (chat) 14:28, 16 October 2012 (UTC)

I'd like to advise meetup attendees that my flight back to Manila is at 12:45 am on November 1. I will gladly check in online beforehand, but my presence is essentially dependent on the time that I have to be at the airport. I am amicable to meeting attendees a little earlier too if they like, but I think I won't be able to stay longer than 10:30 pm since I have to factor in transit times between Bugis and Changi Airport. But still, I hope for a successful meetup regardless. :) --Sky Harbor (talk) 09:25, 17 October 2012 (UTC)
- Sure. Don't think we'll need to have that long a meet-up, anyway. — Cheers, JackLee –talk– 14:05, 17 October 2012 (UTC)
I've added a Wikipedia:Geonotice#Requests. Can someone email the SG mailing list? John Vandenberg (chat) 01:14, 20 October 2012 (UTC)
- The Geonotice is now live. You should see a notice on special:watchlist. John Vandenberg (chat) 02:40, 28 October 2012 (UTC)
Agenda[edit]
Tenatative agenda, please add if there is anything you would like to discuss. Francis Bond (talk) 14:37, 15 October 2012 (UTC)
- Take a look at some of the pages at Wikipedia:SGpedians'_notice_board that are asking for comments, clean-up, expansion and so on
- Discuss any plans for Wikimania 2013 in Hong Kong: attend or not for example?
- Other business
Can I suggest an issue, how are you guys planning about Wikimania 2013 in Hong Kong? attend or not for example? --JéRRy.雨雨.talk.hk 08:25, 17 October 2012 (UTC)
- I can ask them about it. :) --Sky Harbor (talk) 09:19, 17 October 2012 (UTC)
- merged into the Agenda, thanks for the suggestion (^_^) Francis Bond (talk) 13:13, 30 October 2012 (UTC)
Apologies[edit]
- Add your name here if you can't make it, but would like to attend future events in Singapore.
- Sorry cannot make it, due to school, hope to attend one that doesn;t clash with my current schedule. Thanks and have fun to those who are going. Timothy Teo aka Evan Weinstein
- What day of the week & time does suit you? ;-) John Vandenberg (chat) 13:42, 16 October 2012 (UTC)
