The Conference Committee is a committee formed to oversee the organisation of Wikimedia conferences in the UK. It is currently responsible for the 2014 Wikimania bid and WikiConference UK 2013.

The committee meets online monthly. The meetings will, where possible, be open to anyone and the minutes will be published on the WMUK wiki. To join the committee, simply attend one of its meetings and express your interest - you should also subscribe to the committee mailing list. Contact details for the committee members are available via the member's user pages, and also by an internally shared text document. The committee operates the http://www.wikiconferences.org.uk/ domain name.

The plan so far

• Build on the London 2013 bid for 2014
• There will be an awesome conference in London in 2014; be it Wikimania, Regional or National
