Overview[edit]

Bay Area WikiSalon is a time to meet other people interested in working on free and open knowledge through Wikipedia and other Wikimedia projects. Join us to learn, discuss, create, mingle, and munch!

Come with a laptop if you are interested in editing the encyclopedia (or other WMF projects) - or looking at the code. You can buddy up with an experienced editor or take some time to yourself.

We will have light snacks and beverages (including beer and wine), funded by a Wikimedia Foundation Rapid Grant. You are also free to bring your own food/drink for yourself, to share, or bring an alternative adult beverage.


This is an informal, participant-driven event which has been happening on the last Wednesday of every month since April of 2016. We usually meet at the Wikimedia Foundation, but have began looking for another place every other month to mix it up.
