EduWiki Conference 5-6 September in Leicester, UK[edit]

I am writing to you as you have signed up to the Education Meetup at Wikimania 2012 and perhaps are interested in how Wikipedia links to education. Wikimedia UK is now running a education related event that may be of interest to you: the EduWiki Conference on 5-6 September in Leicester. This event will be looking at Wikipedia and related charitable projects in terms of educational practice, including good faith collaboration, open review, and global participation. It's a chance to talk about innovative work in your institution or online community, and shape the future of Wikimedia UK's work in this area!

The conference will be of interest to educators, scholarly societies members, contributors to Wikipedia and other open education projects, and students.

For details please visit the UK Chapter Wiki.

Please feel welcome to register or promote within your network.

Thank you, Daria Cybulska (talk) 16:18, 25 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

GLAMouts[edit]

Hi User:Haxpett. I see you were the host of the November GLAMout. Do you know if there was a December or January GLAMout, and what the current state and future of this project is? I held host the GLAM/US GLAMouts in the past, and am slightly worried that U.S. participation has dropped since it became global. I know for myself, that I haven't been on a GLAMout since September, which seems like a long time. Coordination just seems tougher at a global scale, all around. Thoughts?

Hi OR drohowa, I did the November GLAMout Global, and I think Sebastiaan TerBurg said he would coordinate the next one. I like the global idea and I hope it'll work and that we'll get it up and running again. If you want to I think you can set up the next GLAMout and hopefully people from all parts of the world will attend. /Haxpett (talk) 08:01, 9 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Hi User:Haxpett thanks for comment. So do we have a date scheduled for the next one? Please make sure to send out the invite to the <glam@lists.wikimedia.org> and <glam-us@lists.wikimedia.org> when we do. OR drohowa (talk) 16:51, 12 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Nothing decided yet. If you want to host it you can either decide on a time and date that suits you or set up a doodle to try to find a date and time that more people will agree on. If you're not interested in hosting it someone^tm else should. But then we need to find that someone instead... /Haxpett (talk) 17:01, 12 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]
