==Old List==
 
I have preserved the old list for now, until people become comfortable with the new botted setup.
 
===Planned Meetups===
 
''This is a new section designed to collect planned expeditions in one place. It will soon be automated, placing all pages that are in [[:Category:Expedition planning]] for each date under the appropriate subheading, but for now it is manual. For discussion on the automation effort, please see the [[User talk:AperfectBot|the bot talk page]].  To see what the bot is currently producing, [[User:AperfectBot/Test_Page|go here]]''
 
 
Add a new subheading if you are '''planning''' a more recent expedition, and move the subheadings for dates that have passed in their respective timezones to the Recent Meetups section. Each entry should be a link to a <nowiki>[[YYYY-MM-DD LAT LONG]]</nowiki> page giving more details of the planning, even if the plan is simply "[[User:thepiguy|thepiguy]] will attend." Please don't use this page for simply cataloguing geohash locations: posting here is interpreted as an intention to geohash there on that date.
 
 
If you are looking for an expedition, be very aware that '''this is not a complete list'''. Information on why, and more help finding expeditions is available at [[How to arrange meetups]].
