#* Not all the talks are out yet, but here is the [https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLw2YgbWET_pgT_oUsampBL8O6osinnNW8 YouTube playlist]
#* Wikidata was a big topic during the conference with several topics devoted to it
#* The [https://hopin.com/ hop.in] platform was very nice and added a lot of "conference like" features
# '''Community Wishlist Survey 2021''' {{Agenda presenter|Bryan}}
#* [https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Community_Wishlist_Survey_2021 link to survey]
# '''WMF Stable Interface Policy'''

# '''Creating reusable MediaWiki products''' {{Agenda presenter|Yaron}}
#* Yaron runs [https://wikiworks.com/ WikiWorks] a MW consulting company
#* The goal of the reusable products is to increase MW usage
#* Envisioned to be a Docker container that has MW + Extension (including [[MW:Extension:Page Exchange|Page Exchange]])
#* "Products" could be made up of packages of MW, extensions, and data structures.  It could be useful to anyone starting up, consultants, and be FOSS or include proprietary elements
#* {{Agenda presenter|Rich Evans}} I'm happy to donate Template/Forms/Properties
#* {{Agenda presenter|Rich Evans}} I think the problem with page exchange for private enterprise sites that might use your data structures is the SSO issue
#* {{Agenda presenter|Marcus}} I'm happy to contribute
#* {{Agenda presenter|Alex}} I am just learning about docker and looking to use it for MediaWiki so I'll be interested in contributing
#* A package manager could help
# '''How to become a member''' {{Agenda presenter|Mark}}
#* Brief mention that the "Become a member" feature is now live on the MWStake website
# '''WikiConference North America (WCNA) {{Agenda presenter|Peter Meyer}}
#* December 11th-13th
#* If someone from MWStake could provide a write-up of what MWStake is all about, Peter will share
#** Peter to contact Markus for write-up
# '''Chat service recommendation'''
#* From [www.volteurope.org Volt] (a new political movement)
#* Looking for a Workplace alternative. I was curious about what the Wikimedia movement is using. I asked some questions and somebody referred me to the MediaWiki Stakeholders. I think Elements is very interesting. I was also curious if the Wikimedia community is also integrating something like Trello? I learned that the community uses Phabricator. We are looking for a very user friendly open source platform. 
#* There's a bunch of information about Matrix on https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T186061
#* There's also https://chat.wmcloud.org/ which is Mattermost
#* The Wikimedia Foundation uses Slack internally
#* Zulip is used for some engineering outreach, and Telegram is used mainly by Wikimedia user groups / chapters.
#* Obviously there are IRC channels all around the place
#* The Wikimedia movement hasn't really converged to a single chat solution yet
#* The main differentiating factors for Matrix are federation and end-to-end encrypted group chats so it might depend on your situation how useful it is to you
# '''Upgrading MW from 1.31 to 1.35'''
#* It appears that Mediawiki 1.31.10 created an additional "slots" table. See https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T212428.
#* So we must create the new table manually before running the upgrade script. <code> php maintenance/populateContentTables.php</code>
#* Strange that 1.31.10 created additional tables. I would think creating new tables (altering database) should only be done by a major version?
#* See https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T212428
#* The general consensus is the the update scripts should catch this and create the necessary tables
# '''Misc'''
