The Ada Lovelace edit-a-thon.
In remebrance of Ada Lovelace, we had an edit-a-thon in Stockholm with
focus on women in science and technology. Around 10 new editors were guided
by 6 experienced editors. 12 new articles were created and another 10
improved, a great acomplishment since there was little knowledge about
Wikipedia before at the attendees. One of them blogged about it on the
Wikimedia
Foundation
blog<http://blog.wikimedia.org/2012/10/30/gendered-language-and-the-swed…r/>.
It was also noted by media:

Report from Culutral treasures on the net (Kulturskatter på nätet)
Work with updating it to a second edition has started and it is probably
ready by spring time.
QualityIdentify deficient or missing content
Work is ongoing, the thesis will be ready in February.
Surveys of how Wikipedia is used and can be improved
Unfortunatly the student who started this thesis dropped out.
We have for the first time managed to translate the editor study to Swedish
and participated and are eagerly waiting for the results.
Content donations from institutionsCouncil of the Swedish Central Museums
Our workshops continued, three were held during November and meetings about
collaborations in exhibitions and preparations for batch-uploads were also
on the agenda.
The Working Life Museums Co-operation Council
We signed a letter of
intent<https://se.wikimedia.org/wiki/Projekt:Arbetslivsmuseer_2013/Avsik…
(in
Swedish) with he Working Life Museums Co-operation Council
(Arbetslivsmuseernas samarbetsråd) who has over 400 Working Life museums as
members. This is similar to the letter of intent we signed in May with The
Council of the Swedish Central Museums which made way to several workshops,
upcomin uploads and editing from the institutions.
The Vasa Museum
We signed a letter of intent on starting a project with the Vasa Museum,
who is a member of The Council of the Swedish Central Museums and this is a
direct spinn-off from that collaboration. The project is around an
exhibition and we will have workshops, Wikipedia competitions, and help
them with integrating Wikimedia content in the exhibition.

An online course
An online course is under development and will be launched this spring for
teachers mainly. It will be held online with virtual meetings. The
participants will, if successful, receive a diploma from WMSE.
Meetings
We had several meetings with Educational institutions discussing how we
could work with Wikipedia Education program, among these were:
- The Royal College of Music
- The Royal Institute of Technology
- Umeå University
Also, the Wiki skills project had a meeting in Athens.
Workshops
- Workshop with staff at the Central museums in The Royal Armoury.
- Workshop with the staff at Ájtte Swedish mountain and Sámi museum.
Meetup for volunteers
We have planned a day for volunteers, the 26th of January, here at
Wikimedia Sweden. The idea is to go through ideas about how to present WMSE
and the Wikipedia educational program here in Sweden.
Informational material
We created some new materials for our Wikipedia Education Program, and also
reprinted some already existing material.
- Wikipedia i
utbildning<https://se.wikimedia.org/wiki/Fil:Wikipedia_i_utbildning_bros…
(Wikipedia

The Wiki Skills brochure.
Leo is back from the partners coordination meeting in Athens. Anna has been
working on the economic reporting. Sophie has been printing the learning
scenario brochures which we will use partly for dissemination of the
project and partly as material for the courses. It will be used as a
complement to the learning scenarios of Wikipedia in
education<http://se.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=Fil:Wikipedia_i_utbi…
.
We are about to plan the content of the courses in more detail. In
preparation for this we have been giving some feedback to the Definition of
training scenarios and training
curriculum<http://wikiskills.cesga.es/xwiki/bin/view/Wiki-Skills/D3.1+Definition+of+training+scenarios+and+training+curriculum>,
the Guidelines for

and
the Evaluation
Framework<http://wikiskills.cesga.es/xwiki/bin/view/Wiki-Skills/Deliverable+8.1+-+Evaluation+Framework>
.
We have been preparing a course

and
a registration
form<http://kreablo.se:8080/x/wiki/kreablo.se/view/Wiki+skills/Anm%C3%A4lningsformul%C3%A4r>
which
has been sent out to invite our target group (which consists of teachers of
trainees and of students in vocational training. Other teachers from
secondary education may be welcome as well).
University (teach the teachers program)
We had a
blogpost<http://blog.wikimedia.org/2012/12/17/wikipedia-education-progra…
about
the Swedish program published on the Wikimedia Foundation blog.
Lessons to learn
In this, together with the past month, we have gratefully received
information, tips and best practices from Annie Lin at WMF and Cornelia
Trefflich at WMDE. This has furthered our educational program in various
ways but perhaps most importantly helped to minimise aspects which has
already been tried with few results.
KTH Royal Institute of Technology
We have been holding workshop at KTH with engineering students who have the
option to write their assignment on Wikipedia, which should be an article
about a subject in their course of study. This collaboration will evolve
further as the lecturer, Stefan, very much appreciate the idea.
KMH Royal College of Music
We have had two workshops with a small course of four students and two
professors. The students study to become teachers in music and music
production. We have set up a Wikipedia project where they will contribute
with their knowledge. In the spring, Wikipedia will in a more structured
and planned way, become a part of this course as the professors have so far
very much enjoyed to work with Wikipedia together with their students.
SLU Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences
We are currently supporting SLU in arranging a Wikipedia day the 18th of
January which should be seen as the launch of the project *Knowledge
transfer to Wikipedia from researchers at SLU.* It is a project where
researchers are asked to, by the university, contribute with their
knowledge to Wikipedia. SLU has filed an application as to be able to
employ potentially a Wikipedian for support to the researchers.
Swedish as a second language
<https://se.wikimedia.org/wiki/Fil:Wikipedia_workshop,_language_course.jpg>
<https://se.wikimedia.org/wiki/Fil:Wikipedia_workshop,_language_course.jpg>
Wikipedia workshop, students learning Swedish and Wikipedia.
This is a continuation of the courses which are initially offered to
newcomers in Sweden. At this level, students should have quite a good
understanding of Swedish. We have had one workshop, another one is to come
soon, with these students about the basics of Wikipedia. This teacher,
Maria, would want Wikipedia contribution to become an assignment for all
the students to come studying Swedish as a second language. At the moment
there is a project, based on all their nationalities, with focus on culture
and people. There is therefore a list, based on the students origins, with
some painters, musicians, writers etc, which are not written about in
Swedish. After talks with Annie Lin (WMF) though, it would seem as if a
better idea is to have them translate from Swedish to their native language.
Student clubs
A student club at Katedralskolan in Skara has started. Flipped classrom
movies has been used (pending upload to Commons). The theme is "Develop
city article and aspire for featured status" The project was
featured<http://www.diu.se/nr6-12/nr6-12.asp?artikel=s6> in
the Swedish magazine The computer in education (Datorn i utbildningen).
Europeana Awareness
An event page <https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/World_War_I_edit-a-thons> was
created on Meta to coordinate an international series of parallel
edit-a-thons with World War I as the theme. The edit-a-thons will take
place in a number of countries in Europe. If everything goes according to
plans, the events will take place at the 29th of June 2013.
Wiki Loves Public Art (WLPA)

A voting has been held on the logo for Wiki Loves Public Art. The winner
can be seen to the right.
Vinnova has given us funds to create a database about public artworks in
Sweden. A database developer will be identified and the work will have to
start as soon as possible. See our blog post in Swedish and
English<http://wikimediasverige.wordpress.com/2012/11/30/vinnova-stodjer…
.
A new national coordinator in Sweden and a person that will organize a few
supporting events for the photo contest was identified and will start
working with the contest in December 2012.
A new web designer are now working on getting the international website up
and running as soon as possible. We had some initial difficulties but it is
now progressing very well and a first version is up and running on
wikilovespublicart.org.
The organizing team for WLPA in Sweden had a very good meeting with The
National Public Art Council Sweden (Statens konstråd) and they are very
positive to the idea and are looking into how they can be involved in both
the creation of the database and in the Wiki Loves Public Art contest.
Database for Public Art
We received funding from Swedish Governmental Agency for Innovation Systems
(Vinnova) in their open data program to collect and create a database for
public art. We plan to build it on a similar architecture as the Wiki Loves
Monuments database, so that it can be utilized in a similar way for the
Wiki Loves Public Art contest. We are funded with 375 200 SEK, and we will
hire for this position.
Make contacts with important educational institutionsThe Swedish National
Council of Adult Education (Folkbildningsrådet and Flexlär)
We have been present at two conferences, which were organised by and for
the study-circle movement in Sweden. We have found several organisations
who would be interested in holding circles about Wikipedia and Commons. We
are now in the process of taking this further.
Dialogue with the Swedish educational broadcasting organisation (UR)
Ur is currently interested in how they can use Wikipedia, and potentially
Wikiversity as a part of their educational mission. The current dialogue is
focused on their material for newcomers in Sweden and how they may use
Wikipedia as a means to develop their knowledge of Swedish.
Broadcasting for the national radio
We have held a broadcast for the national radio which will be sent mid
December, where we held a workshop together with a teacher about Wikipedia.
Not only the technical basics but also the democratic, gender and societal
aspects.
SWAMID
This month we have met Leif Johansson at SUNET. They work with SWAMID, an
identity federation for universities and polytechs in Sweden. SWAMID is
though a part of a much greater network of identity federations for
universities and polytechs around the world in the EU, the US and Asia.
They have put together an idea about using that identity when editing
Wikipedia, which would most hopefully engage new contributors as they may
easily show their contributions on WP together with articles they have
published in journals and such, all collected through a single identity. We
have contacted Erik Möller as Leif asked for the possibility to meet in
person in either San Fransisco or Washington.
The Academy for Principals (Rektorsakademin utveckling)
We have met RAU and they have offered us to participate at their conference
for teachers next year where we may have two seminars, one each day. We are
also discussing the possibility of taking part in a course they're offering
principals during autumn where we may be responsible for one or two of the
seminars in that course.

Meeting of the Nordic Chapters
The third meeting between the Nordic Chapters was held in connection with
the FSCONS conference in Göteborg, November 10.
It was confirmed that the second phase of the project for the support of
the Sami Wikipedia should be led by Wikimedia Norway and be a
cross-the-border project.
Booklet on the activities by the Nordic chapters
The yearbook project was sucessfully finished with the printing of the
booklet *Working with the Wikimedia Chapters in Denmark, Norway and Sweden* (in
English). A second edition might be produced early 2014. A few copies will
be distributed to all chapters.

Important notes on internal character was approval of; a new policy for
working hours of employees, policy for communication and guidelines for
Conflicts of interest, policy for representation. We also enrolled in a
collective agreement, which is more or less standard for employers in
Sweden, thus giving us better status for new recruitment.
