Sessions I am planning to attend
- All times in Eastern Daylight Time, i.e. local time in Montreal. Sometimes, the list has several options (find out why). Sessions I am involved in running are marked in bold. For full program, see Programme, which also has location info. Some sessions will be live streamed. Besides the collaborative session notes, I will mainly be using Twitter for communicating during the conference, whose hashtag is #Wikimania (some people also use #Wikimania2017).
- Sessions I actually went to are marked like this:

Other sessions I am excited about
From the session Submissions/Making a real Wikipedia Globe (I am not involved — at least not yet).
This list is very incomplete at the moment — haven't yet managed to go through all submissions, nor to log all I already found exciting. A good place to find submissions of interest to me is Category:Scholarly submissions.
- Submissions/Possible strategies of increasing involvement of scientists and academics in Wikimedia projects
- Submissions/Making a real Wikipedia Globe
- Submissions/How does common knowledge sound? My experience uploading audio files to Commons
- Submissions/The role of Wikipedia in the progress of Artificial intelligence
- Submissions/Wiki-in-Residence Birds
Topics I had considered submitting but finally did not
- wikis for kids
- WORKSHOP: Unconference session
- looks like there will be unconference sessions every day (in the evenings), which is basically what I want to propose.
