Hi Paula,

this is a good idea. Even though I am doubtful for the languages apart from English. Did I understand You, that you propose to ad that logo to the WP article of an museum that does have a Wikimedia project. How would we deal with time? If the project is done, will the logo be removed?

Any way it is a good thing. Because I believe that GLAMs do check one other GLAMs and their WP articles and it will help them to find the information they need to start their own WP GLAM project. 

Could we discuss this further?

We've talked about increasing the visibility of GLAM on Wikipedia.  

I noticed that (in EN at least) our project templates don't mention GLAM in the visible text at all.  I wonder if we should consider:

- Adding the "square" GLAM logo on the right in project templates that don't already have in image on the right, linked to the WP's main GLAM page (in EN, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:GLAM).

- Adding text in the project description such as "one of Wikipedia's Galleries, Libraries, Archives, and Museums (GLAM) initiatives" (also linked).

What do you think?

Paula
