Greetings everyone,
If you haven't participated yet, the Wikimedia sound logo contest voting
<https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Sound_Logo_Vote> is open until
December 20, 05:29 IST. Please participate to help choose a sound that will
represent Wikipedia and Wikimedia content on audio devices, it only takes a
few minutes to vote. This project has been ongoing for at least 1.5 years,
more so in the past 9 months, and has seen community members all over the
world, sound professionals, and staff from different teams collaborate to
bring us here. I found this blog post
<https://diff.wikimedia.org/2022/10/31/screening-3235-sound-submissions/> about
the experience of volunteer screeners an interesting read. Seeking
information and engaging with knowledge has become a more diverse
experience globally, with sound being among the fastest growing, and this
project aims to better attribute Wikimedia content in such settings. I
believe this is an important project, especially since I have worked on
audio-visual content digitization.
Thanks,
Amrit
