Storytelling

From Wikimania 2011 • Haifa, Israel

The Wikimedia Storytelling team is coming to Wikimania and they want to meet you!

Tired of reading personal appeals from Jimmy Wales? Want the annual fundraiser to better represent the rich diversity of the global Wikipedian community? Help us improve the 2011 Fundraiser by sharing your experiences, thoughts and enthusiasm for Wikipedia with our team of professional storytellers. The storytellers will be conducting short in-person interviews throughout Wikimania 2011. Help Wikipedia by sharing your story with the world!

Share Your Story

If you'd like to participate in this project, please leave your contact information on the Storytelling talk page or email wikistorywikimedia.org. A WMF Storyteller will then get in touch with you directly.
