Meetups
A WordPress Meetup is . . .
“an opportunity for people who love and value
WordPress to get together to learn from, and
connect with each other”
https://make.wordpress.org/community/handbook/meetup-organizer/meetup-program-basics/
As WordPress Meetups are organized and run by local communities, anyone can
show leadership and no single person is necessarily the owner of what may be
organized or hosted. WordPress Meetups are groups in which anyone is
welcome to organize an event.

Editor's Notes

  • #3 A major part of using WordPress involves relying on the WordPress community at large, which has the reputation of being genuinely friendly and helpful. After all, as an open source platform it has been built and maintained by that community! In this session we'll look at the kind of resources and experiences the WordPress Community can offer you and the ways in which you can contribute, as well as touching on the WordPress freelance working community.
  • #5 People work ‘on’ WordPress not ‘for’ it – it is a collaborative project.
  • #6 A vibrant community, a borderless family . . .
  • #7 What we’ll cover
  • #10 All chapter meetups Follow an agreed Code of Conduct Agree to Five Good Faith Rules You can find links to these in the About Us article on Meetup and in the Quick Reference Links that will be posted on Meetup and in FB after this session. In return, WordPress pays for the fees for Meetup.com and provides a central support structure.
  • #14 Comments from people who have been to a WordCamp?
  • #15 Things that impressed and stayed with me: Commitment to accessibility and internationalization The range of volunteer opportunities and depth of time commitment – in a blog post I wrote ‘ What a fantastic model for social co-operation!’ ‘Darth Vader wins of Yoda every time!’ – content that elicits emotion response is what goes viral, especially if it aroused anger. Therefore we all need to cultivate an ability to evaluate both our emotional response to content and the ‘facts’ in a post-truth world. The corridor stream – making contacts, meeting people both during the conference and at the after party, can be both fun and useful. State of the Word – Paul B to speak to this!
  • #16 WCUS tends to have pretty spectacular after parties – in 2016, we partied with dinosaurs at the Academy of Natural Sciences! City after parties have their own traditions and character; for a number of years, the photo booth was a Toronto feature.
  • #18 Not yet clear if there will be a Toronto WordCamp in 2019 (in 2018 it was held at the beginning of December)
  • #21 (link out to a couple of these resource sites!)
  • #26 Paul B to speak to this
  • #27 ? Link out to Stack
  • #29 The Deputy program was started in an effort to both decentralize management of the overall Community program and help with the large volume of daily emails. It started with a small pilot program in October of 2014 and has subsequently been expanded. Deputies are vital to our meetup and WordCamp programs. The Community Team trains people from all cultural backgrounds and walks of life to be extraordinary community organizers. Part of that training is done in orientations and through our handbooks, but peer mentoring is an important cornerstone. There is not nearly enough full-time Community Team staff to provide oversight and mentorship to all the meetup groups and WordCamp organizers in the world; our deputy program makes the Community program possible. Helpful Prior Knowledge #Helpful Prior Knowledge While no one is required to know all the things, it is helpful to be a member of a locally organized WordPress community and to have been part of organizing a local WordCamp or Meetup. That way you know the rough outline of what should happen before you even get started! Similarly, for WordCamp organizers, there is a mentoring program, there are monthly chats, etc.
