Description

The Black Lunch Table is holding an editathon at Kickstarter for Art+Feminism in Brooklyn, NY. We would like to request a temporary lift of the IP cap for the location on Sun Mar 4 11am-6pmEST. We are expecting roughly 50 people for each event.

Please do so for this IP: 198.179.69.250

Other Black Lunch Table events are here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Meetup/Black_Lunch_Table/Event_Archive

And our art+feminism page is here: https://outreachdashboard.wmflabs.org/courses/Kickstarter/Kickstarter_ArtandFeminism_2018

We'd like the cap to be lifted on English Wikipedia and other projects if possible, since will include multilingual editing (primarily in Spanish).

Thank you!

Note: this is only my second Phabricator request for a Wikimedia project, so please feel free to let me know if you need more/less/other info.

I cannot activate the IP cap for all projects (Wikipedias). But, you can direct your participants to register at en.wiki for example and then they can edit everywhere they want.

I'm going to enable the IP cap for enwiki, eswiki, commonswiki and wikidatawiki. Please tell me if you need other projects included too until Monday 14:00 UTC, when it'll be deployed.

I'm helping to host two synchronous editathons for our project on Feb 8th. I realize it is very soon, and I still haven't received the IP address for one of the two events. But I have this one if you want to add it to the request:
Feb 8, 5-9pm EST for IP address: 66.99.86.39

Let me know if I should open a different request for this. Thanks!
