Re: [Wikimediaindia-l] Insights from GLAMcamp Amsterdam

[Noopur]

Hey,

This presentation is not for audio/video. This came up since someone needed
a presentation for Photographers. Why I have used Commons interchangeably
is because I assume Arnav is going to speak to them about Licensing
(Creative Commons) as well as Wikimedia Commons. That is why I kept two
slides for both. I will change them to two clear slides in that case. For,
NPOV and uploading policies, I was refering to this:
http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Project_scope
Will change the archive bit too (thanks for the heads up!)
And, Featured images should be an excellent end :) (thanks again, you shall
be given a kitten soon!)
Warmly
Noopur

Re: [Wikimediaindia-l] Insights from GLAMcamp Amsterdam

[Lodewijk]

Hi,

Nice work! I am not very at home in Prezi, so some suggestions by email:

* Maybe it is better to call Wikimedia a "movement" to avoid confusion when
they encounter Wikimedia India
* In the file formats you seem to miss .OGG (sound/video)
* It is probably better to never say "Commons" like we do, but always
"Wikimedia Commons". Otherwise people get confused with Creative Commons.
* Is NPOV really relevant in Wikimedia Commons?
* Suggesting to dig up archives is dangerous - we have some bad experiences
in Israel with that. The danger is that they dig up photos taken by other
people of themselves. Maybe reword to "your old photographs" and focus on
authorship rather than (physical) ownership?
* Maybe add something about Featured images: if they submit really good
images, they might end up getting that status?

Anyway, hope it is useful,

Lodewijk

Thanks a ton Noopur. Now atleast I'll have something to show when I
invite the photography club for the next meetup.
Ashwin, I believe, it's http://bookshelf.Wikimedia.org I read it at
the back of the Welcome to Wikipedia Editors Guide.

For Arnav and others:
I made a little something on Commons and photography (have avoided any wiki
speak):

http://prezi.com/qjfh338fxhum/the-wikiguide-for-photographers/

It's on prezi so you can edit and then put it in a ppt to share offline as
well!

Arnav, brilliant, though I think you should first introduce
photographers to the Commons and explain the benefits. Let me know
your thoughts, if need be privately, as I'm planning to go forward
with a special meet aimed at the photography community myself, in
Coimbatore.

Re: [Wikimediaindia-l] Insights from GLAMcamp Amsterdam

[Arnav Sonara]

Hey everyone,

As Noopur said GLAM and outreach cannot be seperated, +1 to it.

Also wanted to share with you guys that the outreach event and
workshop I am organising in February in MS University Baroda, the
organizers from the city were amazed to know what Commons is and how
wikipedia and other project get images and media from it.

So they have asked me to come up with an event specially targeting
photographers. Thus am planning for "Wikipedia takes Baroda" though at
much smaller scale than scavenger hunt which has happened in other
countries till now.

Please give your inputs on it. And Noopur I ll get in touch with you
offline regarding it.

Thanks.

Re: [Wikimediaindia-l] Insights from GLAMcamp Amsterdam

[Pradeep Mohandas]

hi,

Well, L could reach WikiSource (old books?), WikiQuotes, Wikictionary
(difficult, tho). Better to keep all options open. Also, all the Indic
stuff would go on the Indic version of the respective projects. So, a
Malayalam wikisource or a Marathi Wikisource other than just English.

Pradeep, thanks. I forgot that the L stood for Libraries. Thanks.
According to me. G- Commons, Wikipedia. L- Wikisource. A- Commons,
Wikipedia, Wikisource. M- Commons, Wikipedia. Am I right? These are
just indicative as to what element of GLAM joins which project.

Pradeep, my thoughts exactly. The Commons would be the most utilised
project due to GLAM, and I think we should ask Yann, who is an admin.
Also, I'm curious to what role WikiSource would play here, especially
in India.

The way I understood it Noopur is willing to help out with a newsletter. Of
course GLAM will be part of it, but the newsletter WikiPatrika which we had
hoped would succeed needs to be revived if GLAM has to have a e-newsletter
to carry its articles in...

Warm regards,

hi,

GLAM contributions will impact contributions to Wikipedia sister
projects like Commons and WikiSource. Would love if people active on
these projects would come forward and share how such uploads from GLAM
would need to be moderated, etc. Would love to hear more from someone
who's onto WikiSource, especially.

warm regards,
Pradeep

@ashwin thanks :) I plan to get one for Jan hopefully or at least figure
things out by then. Am already designing a new logo and trying to see what
sections can cover Indic reports+GLAM+outreach and more. If you have
categories in mind, post on talk page or let's take this on private mail. I
will need help editing maybe and i suck at using templates etc. Would be
glad if you could help with it. :)

hi,

Can WikiPatrika discussion be taken under a new thread? It has matters
and points that might need this.

This thread meant to look at stuff like tech support, legal, help and
the long list of the like. There are people doing this on their own
but might be nice to do it a little more openly so that the whole
community can be helped. Also, when such resources cannot be found,
they can have people trained etc. Something along those lines.

Dear Noopur,

This project was well begun but came to a dead halt! No one to blame. With
a versatile person like Tinu handling so much, something was bound to come
to a stop.

What I meant is that someone should take up outreach coordination within
the community. That way documentation, compiling, connecting people with
other people is centralized and easier to manage.

Hello all :) I am glad you liked it and yes, I will post updates on the page. I

Hello all :)
I am glad you liked it and yes, I will post updates on the page. I am in
talks with someone from a relatively big museum but am taking it carefully
because these things, as you know, are very delicate. I might require the
chapter's support and preferably someone from the chapter or foundation who
is in Delhi. This will be sometime in January first week.
SO, I urge you all to stick around AND, most importantly speak up.

I only see a couple of names over and over and I am sure there are more
people who agree or disagree. *Also, if you guys from the chapter saw the
bit on regular meet-ups, do consider a zonal organisation for India as a
community. Everyone kept asking me how this big a country manages to have a
single chapter for all. Let's make nodal points and have newsletters or
updates. I can volunteer to make a newsletter! *

[Srikanth Ramakrishnan]

Hey Noopur, lovely mail. This should be made part of the FAQ on the
Wiki India Chapter website. I read about a massive GLAM collaboration
in the UK with a Museum for the Hoxne Hoard, which is a Featured
Article in English. The efforts to get info, photos etc, are
documented in the Foundation Report of 2009 2010. I believe this is
what we need to emulate in India simply because much of our culture
and heritage is present and rotting in several museums and we can save
it on Wiki.

Thanks Noopur for the detailed writeup. I am glad that you found it to be a
great learning experience.  Chapter is expected to play a key role in GLAM
initiative, based on our discussion with Liam in the beginning of the year.
We had some interactions with Dept of Public Libraries,Government of
Karnataka and  also Kannada Government Encyclopaedia project
(digital library)

Can you help seed some events around this?  You can use the
GLAMproject page on Wikimedia.in for
sharing your thoughts and/or proposals.

Hey Pradeep and the rest of you,

What I think was my biggest take away from the GLAMcamp is: GLAM and
Outreach cannot be separated. Similar holds for expanding the India
Wikipedia community. While doing Wikiacademy or workshops or clubs or
meet-ups, the idea is to spread the word as much as encourage a culture of
good editing. That is what these guys back at the camp take very seriously,
every occasional meetup is a wonderful outreach opportunity! Let's talk
more about that :)
Warmly
Noopur

Re: [Wikimediaindia-l] Insights from GLAMcamp Amsterdam

[Pradeep Mohandas]

hi,

Thank you for your update, Noopur. Coming back with more good and
concrete is great and the best way for the community to reflect.

Personally, I think there are people right now who are focussed on
building a new breed of editors through WikiAcademies and
Wiki-Workshops. This seems to be happening in tech schools and not in
art schools. Very few of the tech school junta might be interested in
the arts or history. But, they can teach the arts school junta to edit
and help them out. I think it is this cross-disciplinary editing that
we need to foster more in the Indian community.
There are people on this mailing list who are interested in
participating in GLAM. I hope they respond to this thread and
participate in the conversation.

warm regards,
Pradeep
