====Events list==== Isn't it somewhat difficult to determine what's going on here? E.g., some meetups don't actually occur but they are still listed on the web site. When people create meetups and events, they list them, but when they stop doing them, they don't remove them. If you show up to something that doesn't happen, maybe you should remove it from the list on the web site. Someone was trying to make the wiki automatically incorporate the items from the homepage into the meeting template so the events discussed in the meeting would actually be current (according to the website). However, maybe we also need a mechanism for people to actually try to attend an event to see if it's going on. Maybe events should have contact names associated with them so that there is a way to contact someone to find out about the status of the event. Cool, the wiki does pull the current item list from the home page. So one mechanism is that if nobody ever comes to a meeting with personal knowledge that something is still going on, we can remove it. Instead of a name, we should perhaps have a contact e-mail address. And every group that meets here should have a wiki page on our wiki and an e-mail address that's listed on it. However, maybe some people who host groups don't know how to edit the wiki. But some people think this is very easy and they should probably learn. A particular change that we can try to make is to have a more detailed dialogue with people who come to weekly meetings wanting to use the space for an event. In particular, we can try to start enforcing a norm that when you come to a meeting wanting to use the space, you should actually take responsibility for documenting your event via a wiki page! There is sentiment in favor of this norm. It doesn't seem very hard and it seems like we could easily institute this norm and get benefits from it. We can also print the events page out on paper. If people want to use the space to host events, they should try to be in touch with the community to a sufficient extent that their events can be documented on our wiki accurately. One idea is that the secretary should actively maintain the event list. People like this idea.
