- Pick a place! I vote for Books and Books cafe. GroveGuy (talk) 08:58, 10 December 2010 (UTC)
- The event is posted as meetup MIAMI. So let's respect the city that was chosen by keeping it at home. I highly doubt the wikipedians in NYC met in Jersey. Cheers! Eric Statzer (talk) 07:02, 22 December 2010 (UTC)
- Who doesn't LOVE Miami Beach (world's playground when I lived there - what memories!!!) in the winter? I vote for Books and Books too, 933 Lincoln Road, Miami Beach, (305) 695 - 8898 (even though I love Wet Willies, although not much of a drinker). I have never been to B & B, but the menu seems to have something for everyone and the reviews are good, although they both have 4 out of 5 stars, which is as good as these reviews get. I don't like the bathroom facilities at W. W., so B & B cannot be worse, IMO; also, I have eaten at News Cafe. I like Wet Willie's food better. Bottom line: I have been to Wet Willie's and News Cafe. You cannot go wrong with Wet Willie's, but there seems to be more variety with the Books & Books Miami Beach menu - and it's more of an intellectual's place - and isn't that what we WIKIPEDIANS are, LOL? BTW, I LOVE Wikipedia - I have recommended it for years to my students (when Wikipedia was a young toddler). http://www.yelp.com/biz/the-cafe-at-books-and-books-miami-beach So let me just say:
HAPPY BIRTHDAY, WIKIPEDIA!!! GREAT JOB, JIMMY!!! =D A big fan (I donated - a worthy cause)!!! =D DRJACOBB (talk) 16:26, 1 January 2011 (UTE)
Is this meeting open to the public? -I am a student wondering if I can attend.
- Was wondering this as well....Halofanatic333 (talk) 12:56, 3 January 2011 (UTC)
The meeting is open to the public. Secret account 15:17, 3 January 2011 (UTC)
- i need to know the exact location where it will be and what time! I AM WILLING TO ATTEND! ::LOLA ESTRADA
Maxnan2008 I will be there just need the location, Congrats!!!
I will be going!! Im syked and ready to enjoy my time with fellow followers of human growth!!
Happy Birthday Wikipedia! Thanks a million for the best website on the net! I can not express how much Wikipedia has helped me. I am sure it will be a blast wherever you decide to have your party. We all know South Floridians know how to throw a party! I will do my best to make it, it just depends on my schedule for that day. Please don't be to disappointed if I don't show. ;) Denny B DenB (talk) 04:35, 10 January 2011 (UTC)
Possibility

- --Trödel 22:16, 10 December 2010 (UTC)
- I'm sure going to try to be there.TucsonDavidGOD BLESS THE U.S.A. 09:45, 11 December 2010 (UTC)
- Jusdafax - Quite tempted if time permits. Would prefer it to be moved a bit northward if possible, West Palm Beach would be fine. ;D Jusdafax 16:24, 15 December 2010 (UTC)
- Comment - Well, it looks like those asking for a shift a bit northward have lost out. How about a mid-afternoon time instead of noon? Speaking for myself, I am much more likely to attend if I don't have to wake up and start a long drive. Jusdafax 16:55, 7 January 2011 (UTC)
- I agree, West Palm would be a much better location for me as well. --nn123645 (talk) 00:15, 22 December 2010 (UTC)
- Aaron1a12 (talk) 15:44, 24 December 2010 (UTC) - I could only go if the meeting time where to change since I'm Jewish and I observe the Sabbath therefore I can't go on a Saturday. Could the meeting take place in Versailles? It's pretty famous café where lots of tourists go. They also serve good FOOD :)
News lounge in design district is a much better venue, Miami Beach gives me the consumerist creeps. I'd go wherever it ends up being though.
- Halofanatic333 Maybe.....Might bring a friend as well...Also depends where it's at. EDIT: Found out it's my aunt's birthday, and that B&B is about 42 minutes away....Halofanatic333 (talk) 13:12, 3 January 2011 (UTC)
- AlanDewey Small likelyhood I will be there. I also would prefer West Palm Beach area, if there is going to be enough people to make it worth it. AlanDewey (talk) 16:54, 6 January 2011 (UTC)
- hbueno Whoopi Goldberg confirms as well: http://booksandbooks.com/whoopi_goldberg
- At Coral Gables, not Miami Beach. Halofanatic333 (talk) 22:08, 6 January 2011 (UTC)
- Anonymous~Source (talk) 03:51, 9 January 2011 (UTC) Gotta see what's going on with the job.

- Silverskylines 18:33, 21 December 2010 (EST) Sorry dudes, I'll be back at college in Tallahassee. I wouldn't be able to make it down there. If there's ever an event at the Capitol...
