I don't know if it would be possible to install a calendar extension on 
MediaWiki. There seems to be a few options.[1] This would help in 
organising events and archiving events for later look-ups.

Does anyone have any experience with using a calendar module on MediaWiki?

Alternatively, if there is a decent calendar for the LibreOffice.org 
site, we could move the events calendar there. It would be great if it 
could categorise so that native language groups could have their own 
calendars.
