 On Friday, user:Aliaretiree and user:Rubicon49bce (Mylee and Katherine
 from the State Library of NSW) and myself did a full-day training
 workshop at the National Library for representatives of each of the other
 State Libraries in Australia. This is part of the project to write articles
 about digitised newspapers in Trove. The event was under the auspices of
 the annual 'Australian Newspapers Plan' consortium meeting (a committee of
 all the state libraries to coordinate their newspaper
 collecting/preservation).

 WP event project page: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia
 :GLAM/State_Library_of_New_South_Wales/NSLA_Training_November_2013

 This training session was significant not only in terms of the fact
 that there are a couple of trained Wikipedia editors among the staff
 of each state/territory library now, but also because this was the
 culmination of the SLNSW Wikipedia project (which included the
 Wikipedian In Residence with user:Whiteghost.ink earlier in the year).
 The project was always hoping to be able to develop enough skill and
 confidence within the SLNSW that editing WP became part of 'business
 as usual' for their staff, and that they could then train other state
 libraries too. So, to sit up the back of the room and watch two of my
 former 'students' deliver their own WP training day was brilliant!

 Thanks especially to user:99of9 (Toby, also one of the original 
 SLNSWtrainers) for helping out remotely during the day and over the 
 weekend in
 ensuring the articles we created were given the once-over and all our new
 users were welcomed.

 You can see the practical results of the day, in terms of new users and
 new articles created, here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia
 :GLAM/State_Library_of_New_South_Wales/NSLA
 _Training_November_2013#Trainees
 [note there are two articles currently sitting in the 'articles for
 creation' queue and one is currently being debated for deletion. If people
 could weigh in on those that would be helpful].

 Sincerely,
 -Liam / Wittylama

 p.s.
 On a side note - here at the NLA we just had a public guest talk by
 user:edsu (Ed Summers) from the Library of Congress. He spent
 basically the entire time talking about how good wikipedia was and why
 GLAM-Wiki was really important, and showing off some of the
 visualisation tools he's created to demonstrate that - such as
 Linkypedia http://wikistream.wmflabs.org/ and Wikistream http://
 wikistream.wmflabs.org/
 You don't often get a better endorsement than that!
