On 19-20 October there is a French language conference on reliability and academic recognition for Wikipedia. I expect it to be fairly small and informal, as it is the first event of its kind. http://colloque.wikimedia.fr/2007/
It's organised by the French chapter of the Wikimedia Foundation. As well as some talks on these themes, workshop tracks include (please excuse my schoolboy French translations): - How to developing a network of academic experts, and bring their expertise to bear on articles - Wikipedia and education - Article validation - what is it exactly, and how will it be implemented? http://colloque.wikimedia.fr/2007/spip.php?rubrique1 If you feel your French is up to it, and you can make it to Paris for October 19, please come! I'll be there (despite my abilities in French!), and besides me I know of at least one PhD chemist Wikipedian and one chemistry librarian who are attending. -- Martin A.
