Hi all So far, Wikimedia UK's experiences of trying to work with the BBC have been...mixed. I'm sure it would be worth going back to them at some point but it makes sense to try and align our arguments and draw on examples.
On the other hand, our programme manager in Wales has had much greater success. At his request, the Welsh Government has changed their YouTube account licences on over 1,500 videos, of which over 150 have now been uploaded to Commons. The Welsh Parliament (Senedd) is now considering making this change on their YouTube account. Wikimedia UK also has a partnership with the Welsh language free-to-air television channel S4C. They have been placing their press releases on the Welsh Wikipedia on CC-BY-SA for over a year now, so that the text can be copied and pasted to Wikipedia articles. There are additional aspects of this partnership currently in the works (but not yet agreed) that could lead to further openly-licensed content on Commons. I have contacts within Creative Commons and Open Knowledge Foundation, but I suspect many people do.
