I like the idea of mentioning that the QR code links to Wikipedia. I worry, though, that
some GLAMs may not want their collections to link their. Perhaps if there was another QR
code by the Wikipedia one that linked to the object's page on the museum's
website, the GLAM might be more interested, and most people would probably scan both if
they were there anyway.

Got any pictures of the installation processes or labels in-situ? This deserves a mention
in the Signpost and if you could also add it to the "this month in GLAM" report
for Feb that's being compiled here

Agreed with Roger too, if we could generate labels that not only show the QRcode but also
the article title, and maybe something like "read about me on Wikipedia..." to
give some context. Roger, would you mind giving a report of what you've achieved to
the cultural-partners mailing list and requesting assistance to bring this to v.2?

I'm thoroughly impressed that we went from my
vague mention of QR
codes to a live public exhibition within 3 days. Victuallers, you
deserve a great big "Making things happen" barn star.
