I've started to add the schedule: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SoftwareFreedomKosovo

Day 1 is finished, just I want the opinion from everybody to see if that style is good. Later I will be adding day 2.

I don't think is a good idea. A wikipedia article about a specific
event doesn't sound right, and if we insist on proposing it, we will
alienate the goodwill of a very important open source project.
We can be informational, like the OSCON page, but leave the details in
the event page itself.

Wouldn't a link to the schedule be enough? I think more space should be
taken up by a summary of events, goals of the conference, and so on. A
picture or two would be nice too!

You are absolutely right.

Please someone do that, because it isn't the right time for me to edit that at this moment.

Software Freedom Kosova is about to be deleted from WIkipedia.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/SoftwareFreedomKosovo

But the Koha Ditore article may help. Can someone translate it to
English? Other newspaper articles can help as well.

[jamesmi...@googlemail.com]

There are lots of examples of pages for indvidual events, about 20 of them

e.g.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LinuxTag

see the lists:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Linux_conferences
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Free_software_related_events_and_awards

[jamesmi...@googlemail.com]

Well,
we can put the page on other wikis as well.
we can make a wikibook for the conference for example.

The discussion is not about if such events are supposed to be in wikipedia,
but if our event is notable.
we need to prove that it was worth being in the wikipedia,
we need external references and supporting evidence.
external newspapers listings etc.

The article has been deleted.

[James Michael DuPont]

Yes.
At least we tried.
We can always put it on the albanian wikipedia.
http://sq.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flossk
we can make a section about the conference there.

But we are learning about the problems of wikipedia in kosovo.
The wikipedia people are not interested in supporting us just because we support them.
Also we need to do better press work.
Has there been any english language press about us?
What about a press release about the conference?
I think there is alot of work to do.
