John is part of Wikimedia Norway. What sort of thing do museum liaison
volunteers sell the idea of free to museums with? Please answer on
foundation-l :-)

To: Wikimedia Foundation Mailing List foundatio...@lists.wikimedia.org


Is it possible to find some common grounds on why and how a
GLAM-organization should use Wikimedia Commons? Forget about troublesome
disputes with specific organizations. Why should they use us and is it
possible for us to tell them how to better utilize our services? What
are our services? Perhaps we need a sales department... ;)

Daniel has signed himself for metoericigical incidents

I suppose as the [[Australian Cricket Hall of Fame]] is a museum exhibit,
the inductees themselves are also museum exhibits, well pictures of them
anyway I have a few in mind
