[06:40:18] <wm-bb>	 <Leaderboard> This is still confusing - why is there a "Northwestern" hackathon along with this? Is the "Northwestern" event not WMF-organised?
[06:44:16] <wm-bb>	 <Jan_ainali> No, it's locally organized. (re @Leaderboard: This is still confusing - why is there a "Northwestern" hackathon along with this? Is the "Northwestern" event not WMF-organised...)
[14:44:53] <wm-bb>	 <tehreedy> I mean, it's not like Milan counts as north western europe ;)
[14:56:26] <wm-bb>	 <NicolasVIGNERON> why is there like 30 Wikimedia hackathons a year 🤷 (re @Leaderboard: This is still confusing - why is there a "Northwestern" hackathon along with this? Is the "Northwestern" event not WMF-organised...)
[14:57:19] <wm-bb>	 <lcawte> Only 30?
[15:21:07] <wm-bb>	 <siebrand> Yes. WMNL volunteers organize it. (re @Leaderboard: This is still confusing - why is there a "Northwestern" hackathon along with this? Is the "Northwestern" event not WMF-organised...)
[18:06:00] <wm-bb>	 <Ash_Crow> Per https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Hackathons/Previous_hackathons it's less than 10 a year worldwide (and most years, half that or less) (re @NicolasVIGNERON: why is there like 30 Wikimedia hackathons a year 🤷)
[18:06:51] <wm-bb>	 <NicolasVIGNERON> a lot of them are not listed here (re @Ash_Crow: Per https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Hackathons/Previous_hackathons it's less than 10 a year worldwide (and most years, half that ...)
[18:07:57] <wm-bb>	 <Ash_Crow> given that it includes some events with like 12 people, they probably should ^^'
[18:09:44] <wm-bb>	 <Jan_ainali> I notice that the WikiIndaba hackathon in 10 days is not listed in the upcoming ones.
