Invitation[edit]

is the 29th anniversary of the launch of the first wiki! On March 25, 1995, Ward Cunningham launched the Portland Pattern Repository, which is still available today at http://wiki.c2.com

Since then, countless other wikis have been born exploring everything from patterns & pattern languages to organizations, to fandoms, to journalistic efforts, to individual projects, to entire movements, and beyond, including of course many of the world's largest encyclopedias. Countless people use wikis every day, because wikis have become a key part of how humans tell – and edit – our stories.

A few dozen people were on a 25th anniversary WikiBirthday call a few years ago, which provoked much joy. In the hopes of having a similarly wonderful time together this year, some of us have organized a couple of video calls to meet with other wiki aficianodos. Ward Cunningham will be with us on both of these calls, and we hope you can join us as well!

This invite is also going out to other community-minded technologists, unconference and Open Space organizers, artists, Wikipedians, and many others. It's a chance to share what you are up to with wiki lately, and any new (& old) wiki tools you find useful or promising. We can also highlight past wiki successes, mourn those no longer with us and wiki efforts which didn't work out, reflect on lessons learned, etc.

One World Birthday - Wiki birthday March, 2019[edit]

One World Birthday was a celebration of:

  • 20 Years of Wikipedia
  • 25 years of Wiki
  • 10 years of Wikidata
  • 10 years of Federated Wiki

Format was a Park Bench discussion followed by a Wikidojo.
