Re: [Wikimediauk-l] Wikimedians in Residence in Amman

2020-02-21 Thread CAMPBELL Lorna
Hi Raya,

Really excited to hear about this initiative and would be happy to help if I 
can.  I worked as an archaeologist in Jordan a (very) long time ago and have 
maintained an interest in the country and it’s history ever since.

All the best,
Lorna

Best of luck with the sabbatical and the new post Richard.  I have to admit to 
being just a little bit jealous!

Hello everyone,

This is my last day at Wikimedia UK for a year as from Monday I'll be taking a 
sabbatical to work for English Heritage do stuff to do with castles. Best 
wishes to everyone on the mailing list, and please make sure WMUK stays a 
primarily tea-drinking office as I never got the taste for coffee.

Re: [Wikimediauk-l] UK univeristies and open content

2017-06-09 Thread CAMPBELL Lorna
The University of Edinburgh releases a lot of media material under open 
licence. Here’s a few sources, Ewan may be able to suggest more.

Open.Ed open licenses educational resources including images, video and 3d 
models http://open.ed.ac.uk/about/
Centre for Research Collections on Flickr 
https://www.flickr.com/photos/crcedinburgh/
UoE Image Collections http://images.is.ed.ac.uk/
MediaHopper Creative Commons https://media.ed.ac.uk/category/Creative+Commons/ 


Resources are released under a range of open licences, but there’s quite a lot 
of CC BY stuff there.

Cheers,
Lorna

Well it's CC but whether it should be considered "open" is another debate.

I believe the choice of NC-ND is down to older academics' wish to pre-empt the 
debate on moral rights of derivative works by forbidding derivation under open 
copyright.

Re: [Wikimediauk-l] [Scotwiki] Celtic Knot - Language Conference at the University of Edinburgh - Deadline for ideas 10th March 2017

2017-03-15 Thread CAMPBELL Lorna
Hi Owen,

I’m a Hebridean so I can help out here :)  Comann Eachdraidh Uibhist a Tuath is 
the North Uist Historical Society (there are many local historical societies 
throughout the islands) and they’re based in Taigh Chearsabhagh the museum and 
arts centre in Lochmaddy.  I don’t personally know any of the people involved 
(I’m from Lewis, a couple of islands further north) but their contact details 
are here 
http://www.taigh-chearsabhagh.org/heritage/ceut-north-uist-historical-societ/  
Several of the historical societies are involved in really innovative local 
history and language projects.

Le dùrachdan,
Lorna

Has anyone got in touch with the Comann Eachdraidh Uibhist a Tuath people who

I can't find a more useful URL about the session than  
https://github.com/MozillaFoundation/mozfest-program-2016/issues/825 and I've 
failed miserably to type up any of my notes or collate the tweets, but they're 
www.ceut.scot and have a "virtual museum" and a bunch of 
360 photography and VR stuff they did with support 
from the University of St Andrews. I don't remember the details, but there was 
a bunch of it involving Gàidhlig (oddly enough, given they're a Hebridean 
organisation).

Probably worth someone getting in touch, at least.

Hi Ewan,

Good to see you on Monday.

The Australian editor I mentioned, who is heavily involved in Noongarpedia:

   https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Noongarpedia

is Gideon Digby:

   https://wikimedia.org.au/wiki/User:Gnangarra

   https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Gnangarra

He or one of his colleagues from that project would be an excellent
speaker for your event.
