Add "Attendees" field to drupal.org Event

Created on 4 March 2025, 5 days ago

Problem/Motivation

The ability for an event organizer to credit an event's attendees would:

  • Give attendees an immediate reason to create a Drupal.org account
  • Provide a (mostly symbolic) incentive for attendees to show up to an event

Both of these support community growth and engagement for those new to the community.

Original Slack thread

Proposed resolution

  • Add "Attendees" field to drupal.org Event (analogous to Code of conduct contact, Organizers, Speakers, and Volunteers)
  • Document the purpose of this field, why an organizer should consider doing the work to collect drupal.org usernames from attendees, and how to enter many usernames quickly.
  • Possibly result in an "Events attended" badge on user profiles
