Hi All,
Recently I commented on some of the advantages of being a Wikia wiki. One of those was that we are working to develop relationships and partnerships with some of the companies behind the various topics on Wikia. Recently, Jorge posted some pictures from LEGO City: Undercover, which we were given access to after talking to the game maker, Nintendo.
Now we have something new to tell you about! Nintendo is launching LEGO City: Undercover in London next month. They are planning a one day event for the occasion, which includes a chance to try out the new game and other LEGO themed activities. We're planning to be there - and we'd like one or two of you to come along!
So we're looking for people over 18, who are based in the UK, and who are able to travel to London on March 23. We would prefer that they are admins, but will also consider any editor with a good history of contributing to the wiki. Wikia will cover your travel costs, and pay for you to stay in a London hotel. If we have several people interested, we will look at each application and choose between them.
Of course, we want to be sure that this opportunity benefits this wiki, rather than the one that might be created elsewhere, which complicates things. I really wish that this even had come up any time other than this! I've not yet specifically asked if anyone is intending to stay on the Wikia wiki (that is, intending to keep this wiki as their "home" and edit here as before) and my concern is that none of the UK-based admins are going to do that. But if you are, and you are interested in this opportunity, then please contact us
