 Yes - about 1/3 of our income is from donors who give directly to
 Wikimedia UK by monthly or quarterly direct debits.

 I'm sure Katherine, our fundraiser, can explain more!

Re: [Wikimediauk-l] Wikimedia UK April 2013 report - call for content

2013-04-02 Thread Michael Peel
Hi all,

If you've done anything connected with WMUK recently, then please do take a few 
minutes to add a couple of summary sentences about it to the monthly reports. 
Stevie put the link to this month's below; there's also the March report that's 
being collaboratively drafted at:
http://uk.wikimedia.org/wiki/Reports/2013/March

These reports are important as they're sent around to the global Wikimedia 
community, and as such they're the main way that the Foundation and the other 
chapters learn about what we're doing. They also serve as a historical record 
of our work, so people can look back and see what we've been up to 
month-by-month. And, of course, they're also for you, to learn about what 
others have done recently, and what is coming up in the near future.

Thanks,
Mike
P.S. if you don't have anything to report, but have a few minutes to spare, 
then please help copyedit the report - one suggestion of a quick and 
interesting task might be to turn the list of links in 'UK press coverage'  
into one-line summaries of those stories.

[Wikimediauk-l] Announcement – QRpedia donated to Wikimedia UK

2013-04-02 Thread Stevie Benton
Hello everyone,

Wikimedia UK has today published a blog post announcing that the technology
behind QRpedia has been donated to Wikimiedia UK by Roger Bamkin and
Terence Eden.

As a donation from Roger and Terence, the intellectual property in QRpedia
and the qrpedia.org and qrwp.org domains will be transferred to Wikimedia
UK, which will maintain and support the development of the QRpedia platform
for the future for the benefit of the Wikimedia community. Roger and
Terence will act as honorary advisors to Wikimedia UK in this, as well as
retaining their moral rights of attribution, but will not receive any
financial consideration for this. The transfer of the domains will take
place as soon as the remaining legal details have been resolved.

Wikimedia UK is grateful for this donation which will allow ongoing
technical support for a number of Wikimedia-related outreach projects where
QRpedia is already in use, including Wikimedia UK’s work with the Derby
Museum and Monmouthpedia, and many others worldwide.

Full details are available on the Wikimedia UK blog at
http://blog.wikimedia.org.uk/2013/04/announcement-qrpedia-donated-to-wikimedia-uk/

Thanks and regards,

Stevie
