Wikimania 2016 bids/Esino Lario/History
The bidding process of Wikimania Esino Lario stated in mid August 2013, after Wikimania 2013 Hong Kong. The process began by checking the potential feasibility of such a proposal and the interest of people and institutions. A feasibility study was produced to verify opportunities and challenges of organizing Wikimania in Esino Lario, and to review requirements and the possibility of this location to respond to them and in which way. The process of developing the feasibility study implied the review of the available documentation and of previous experiences, which lead to the production of a series of new documents on meta related to the history of the Wikimania editions and its different aspects. Wikimedia Italia supported since October 2013 the bid and a project manager was involved part-time for few months at the beginning of 2014 to facilitate the work (collecting pre-invoices, facilitating meetings). The Wikimania Esino Lario bid was presented in Spring 2014 (always proposed for 2016). July 18th 2014 the location was at the centre of a site visit of two members of the Wikimania Committee. In Winter 2014 an updated proposal was resubmitted (changes between the first application in Spring 2014 and the application in Winter 2014). In December 2014 Esino Lario was selected to host Wikimania 2016.
