[Wikimediaau-l] interviews with Australian Paralympic skiers
Bidgee, Hawkeye7 and I had the opportunity to interview seven members of the Australian Paralympic Ski team on Sunday. All the interviews have been submitted for review on Wikinews and three have been published. http://en.wikinews.org/wiki/Wikinews_interviews_Australian_Paralympic_skier_Andrew_Bor http://en.wikinews.org/wiki/Wikinews_interviews_Australian_Paralympic_skiers_Jessica_Gallagher_and_Eric_Bickerton http://en.wikinews.org/wiki/Wikinews_interviews_Australian_blind_Paralympic_skier_Melissa_Perrine Hopefully, http://en.wikinews.org/wiki/Talk:Wikinews_interviews_Australian_Paralympic_skiers_Toby_Kane,_Cameron_Rahles_Rahbula_and_Mitchell_Gourleywill be reviewed tomorrow. We have already had http://en.wikinews.org/wiki/Copper_Mountain_and_Vail_face_poor_snow_conditions_ahead_of_IPC_Nor-Am_Cuppublished. We're hoping to get at least one story submitted tonight. Things have been a bit hectic since getting here so we're not getting as much done as we would like. We had a good conversation with a guy from Disability Sport United States about what we are doing. We've taken a few profile pictures for articles that haven't had them yet. Our interviews are all available on Commons. A number of articles about this were taken to DYK or GA in advance of the competition. We're probably the only major media here. Having never seen the sport before, I'm seriously impressed. I wouldn't want to try those speeds as an able-bodied person. -- twitter: purplepopple blog: ozziesport.com ___ Wikimediaau-l mailing list Wikimediaau-l@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikimediaau-l

Tony, I'm a bit confused here... From what I can see you're the one who reply-all'd to Craig's initial email, and then in that last email you also included multiple contact details. Can you clarify? -Liam On Tuesday, 11 December 2012, Tony Souter wrote: > I wasn't aware that my name and my private email address would be > published in your recent reply on the public list.

I wasn't aware that my name and my private email address would be published in your recent reply on the public list. Not happy. Why are those on the public list not simply encouraged to provide feedback on the public list?

That's why I copied it in to the public wikimedia-au list as well. There are people on the members list who are not on the public list, and I want to reach as many people as possible.

[Wikimediaau-l] Lets talk about the 2013 Annual Plan...
Hi All, As you may be aware, at the recent AGM, the members of Wikimedia Australia approved our annual plan, but also directed the committee to revise and adjust the plan to a more modest state with a view to applying for Round 2 funding from the FDC, early in the new year. With that in mind... what sort of revisions and feedback do you have for us? Obviously I can't promise to satisfy every single person but I'm interested to feel the pulse and see what people generally speaking are thinking. The only thing I can promise is that if you don't provide any feedback, then I won't be able to consider it! If you're not comfortable replying in a public setting, I'm happy to consider any comments put forward in private emails as well.
