Ah yes, I'd meant to do that. Seems that someone has taken care of it
now - thanks if that was you, Kat.

I agree that "Channels" isn't a good name, but I'm not sure about
"Services" (it seems rather generic, also that page lists more than
social media accounts). Maybe "NewsChannels" or something?

GUADEC and GNOME.Asia are run by distinct groups of people, and they
have their own communication channels. One reason to move Events under
Engagement would be to make it clear who to get in touch with and
where discussion takes place. It also helps to keep the wiki in better
order. In general I would prefer to try and group our pages under
teams rather than spreading them out with no obvious structure.
