In an effort to provide a wider range of activities over the weekend of the conference, we are now calling for ideas for possible editathons and/or hackathons to take place in Cardiff during or immediately after the conference. Some ideas that would be very welcome include:

• a high-profile cultural institution (i.e. a GLAM event)
• updating Cardiff pages on Wikivoyage and/or Wikipedia
• the Doctor Who experience in Cardiff Bay
• hacking the Mediawiki education-related extensions, such as this or this

If you're interested in leading (or taking on an active role) in these or any other similar activities in Cardiff between 1 and 3 November please use the template below and/or email education@wikimedia.org.uk by Friday 6 September 2013 at noon BST.
