Wiki Wiki Shuttle, the bus from which Wikis got their name
Concept
To take a minibus from London to Esino Lario for Wikimania 2016 taking a dozen wikimedians and Wikimedia UK luggage and also providing a transport resource for the duration of the Wikimania event.
Key questions
Why?
- Provide a cost-effective way of enabling Wikimedian volunteers to travel to Wikimania 2016
- Provide a cost-effective way of taking and bringing back Wikimedia UK luggage (Equipment, WMUK Publicity and other appropriate material) to Wikimania 2016
- Provide an addition to the resource pool for the effective delivery of Wikimania 2016
- Provide a team-building experience for Wikimedia UK volunteers supporting Wikimania 2016
- Provide a reliable structure so that volunteer tasks can be delegated to the Wikimedia UK Volunteer team during Wikimania 2016
- Fun: provide a positive memorable experience for volunteers, visiting interesting places on the way and endeavouring to meet other Wikimeidans on the way. Maybe we can form a convoy.
