Overview

Provide resources for setting up a stall at the Cambridge University freshers' fair 2012 to advertise the Cambridge University Wikipedia Society and WMUK.

Budget
  • £30 registration fee (TBC)
  • A few WMUK banners
  • Lots of freebies to give away
Timeline
  • Now to early October (the freshers' fair is 2-3 October)
Expected outcomes

Successfully bid and set up a stall at the Cambridge University freshers' fair. Through the stall, it is hoped that everyone in Cambridge University will know about WMUK; a sizeable number (expect 20~50) of Wikipedian freshers and other students will sign up to the campus Wikipedia society. The society will then aim to host events such as speaker events and editing workshops. Supporting the use of Wikipedia-editing as coursework is also in mind, if we get course leaders on board.

Who I am

Deryck Chan, Wikipedian since 2004, WMUK member since 2010, Cambridge University student and Wikipedia campus ambassador to Cambridge University.
