A geonotice is a message that appears at the top of a user's watchlist, using IP data to display messages relevant to the user's location. On the English Wikipedia, it is controlled by MediaWiki:Geonotice.js, which can be edited by any English Wikipedia administrator. This page is intended to serve as a central public venue for uncontroversial requests for new geonotices and to track existing geonotices of interest to WMUK.

Meetups, events, or other items of interest to the chapter currently advertised via the geonotice


Requests for new geonotices

Please bear in mind hat controversial (or potentially controversial) requests will require discussion at Wikipedia:Geonotice. It is worth considering whether an event or meetup is likely to be quorate without the assistance of a geonotice, as some people find geonotices annoying.
