Re: [Wikimedia-l] Questions about GLAM projects

[Ilario Valdelli]

Thank you,
I have been unclear.

The question was more connected with the donation of content than with 
creation of content.


An edit-a-thon can generate content in several languages, but an example 
that can match what I am asking for is a donation of digitized documents 
in several languages.


About the Latin language would be interesting to have a link to the 
material of the British Museum.


I have checked here:

The original British museum project produced some Latin material.

[Pine W]

I personally am more interested in transparency in general as a matter of
principle and as a matter of setting a good example from the top.

Re: [Wikimedia-l] Board transparency (thread fork)

[Trillium Corsage]

Agree, in that I found that the Board's minutes from last year, for the session 
in which it eliminated the identification process for those administrators it 
accords access to personally-identifiable identification of editors, were very 
vague. Aside from the fact that SJ Carden moved to approve that and the other 
changes, and that WMF lawyer Michelle Paulson briefed it and then left the 
room, there was no hint of the reasoning. It would also have been nice to see 
if any trustee had voted against the policy change, which I think was an 
extremely bad one, and likely to make Moiramoira-type stalking incidents more 
frequent in the future.

[Wikimedia-l] Questions about GLAM projects

[Ilario Valdelli]

Sorry if address here two questions but I am collecting some data and I
would double check to supply the most accurate information.

First question: can someone say me if there was a GLAM project managing
more than 4 languages?

Second question: do you know a GLAM project managing material in Latin
language?

Regards

[Wikimedia-l] Eligibility to submit Annual Plan Grant (APG) proposals in 2014-2015 Round 2 is confirmed

[Winifred Olliff]

Dear Wikimedia Colleagues:

As you may know, Annual Plan Grants are funds allocated to support an
organization’s annual plan to achieve mission objectives, and the Funds
Dissemination Committee (FDC) is a group of Wikimedians who make
recommendations to the WMF Board about Annual Plan Grant (APG) proposals.
Proposals to the APG program are accepted twice each year, in April and
October. You may read more about the APG process and upcoming milestones
here: http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Grants:APG/Information.

Today, we are pleased to confirm that six of the seven organizations that
submitted letters of intent for 2014-2015 Round 2 of the APG process are
eligible to submit proposal forms for 2014-2015 Round 2 by the upcoming *1
April 2015* proposal form due date. Only eligible organizations that have
already submitted letters of intent will be able to submit proposal forms
using their proposal hub pages that were created at the time the letters
were submitted.

The eligible organizations are The Centre for Internet and Society,
Wikimedia Armenia, Wikimédia France, Wikimedia Italia, Wikimedia Norge, and
Wikimedia South Africa. One organization that submitted a letter of intent
for 2014-2015 Round 2 withdrew its intent to apply on 10 March: Wikimedia
Suomi. You may view a detailed summary of how eligibility was determined
here: http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Grants:APG/Eligibility/2014-2015_round2
.

Proposal forms for Annual Plan Grants will be due by 1 April 2015. Here are
some upcoming milestones:
* Eligibility confirmed: 15 March 2015

** Proposals due: by 1 April 2015*

* Community review: 1 April 2015 - 30 April 2015

* Staff assessments published: by 8 May 2015

* FDC deliberations: middle of May 2015

* FDC recommendations published: by 1 June 2015

* Board decision: by 1 July 2015

* Start of new grant terms: 1 July 2015

All eligible organizations must continue to comply with any agreements with
WMF and meet all requirements listed in column (T) of the eligibility
checklist in order to maintain eligibility until and after a grant is
received, and the organization may not be able to receive a grant (or funds
may be withheld) if the organization stops being eligible at any point. *Once
proposal forms are submitted, a 30-day public review period will begin on **1
April 2015, when comments on the proposal forms are considered as an
important input into the FDC process. *

We encourage you to contact fdcsupp...@wikimedia.org with any questions
about the eligibility process or the proposal process. If you have general
questions or concerns, you may also post them here on Meta:
http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Grants:APG/Comments.

Best regards from FDC staff!
