The December 2016 NYC WikiWednesday salon and skill-share with the Wikimedia NYC community will be held Wednesday, 21 December, 2016, 7:00 pm - 9:00 pm at [http://babycastles.com/ Babycastles], a co-working space and gallery located near 14th Street / Union Square in Manhattan.
This will be the holiday party! Celebrate a December holiday with us, or in wiki-fashion, edit the calendar itself and join us to celebrate any holiday of your choice regardless of when it usually happens.
This will also be a good opportunity to prep for the upcoming Wikipedia:Meetup/NYC/Wikipedia Day 2017 on January 15.

:* An interactive weather history viewer - try selecting ranges at the bottom, switch to Fahrenheit, or mouse over for info. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Yurik/Weather_barchart
:* This is a simple historical heatmap: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Yurik/Weather_heatmap
:* And the same data shown as a well established enwiki climate table using a lua script: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Yurik/WeatherDemo
:* All above pages are generated from a single data page on Commons: https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Data:Weather/New_York_City.tab
:* Per state GDP viewer, with selectable history range: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Template:Graph:US_Map_state_highlight
:* A simple static population history graph with annotations: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Template:Graph:Population_history
:* A highly reusable lines template https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Template:Graph:Lines
:Documentation: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Help:Tabular_Data
