Message-ID:
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="utf-8"
Hey #1lib1ref organizers, WikiLibrarians and GLAM-Wiki enthusiasts,
We wanted to send a brief update on how the campaign is going:
As of writing the email, the campaign has tracked over 1930
contributions
by 392 contributos in 1332 articles in 15 different languages
(remember we
expect we are missing 1/4-1/2 of contributions that don't use the
hashtag).
This well surpasses our [https://meta.wikimedia.org/
wiki/The_Wikipedia_Library/1Lib1Ref/Lessons contributions from last
year],
and we still have another week and a half to go! We published a brief
update blog at https://blog.wikimedia.org/2017/01/24/1lib1ref-first-
week-highlights/ to highlight these accomplishments.
We have seen a slightly smaller amount of blogging and newsletters as
part
of the Campaign this year. We think this may be in part, because the
campaign is less novel and in part because of the broad number of
distractions in the press at the moment (we actually think this means
we
have been more grassroots this year which is a good signal for the
network
for Wikipedia and libraries). If you find pieces of press or blogs,
make
sure to share them at:
https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/The_Wikipedia_Library/1Lib1Ref/Press
We are testing a Central Notice Banner, to encourage Wikimedians to go
talk
to their librarians about #1lib1ref. So far we have seen pageview
activity
from Wikipedians, but it is not clear how much that will transfer into
activity. We have yet to see a social media boost or huge boost in
participation using the hashtag. If you want to try the banner in your
language, instructions are below [1]
We could still use your help reminding librarians in your context to
participate! Something as simple as visiting your library and showing
the
librarians how to add a citation to Wikipedia, or sending an email to
your
local library organiziations, would be awesome. Sharing in digital
communications attracts some participants to the campaign, but we also
know
that many of participants are encouraged by friends, peers, colleagues
or
patrons to participate.
We look forward to seeing what other activities events emerge this
year. If
you need help, make sure to contact the Wikipedia Library team.
Keep up the energy through February 3!
Alex Stinson
