This is really good timing actually. I was speaking with Jon about this
very thing at about 11am today, based on recent conversations we've had
with you over the last few weeks. It was actually on my task list to email
you again today to discuss this. I know that QRpedia is on the agenda for
tomorrow's WMUK Board meeting and believe Fae has been in touch with you,
too.
If you feel that there's a hold-up at our end, please do drop me a line off
list and I'll do what I can to help take things forward.

Well congratulations Andy - good to see that you are
just getting things
done.
The recent board agenda indicates that they have no one assigned to the
task that Geni feels is important. It looks as if they are still struggling
with this as they haven't spoken to me about it since February. Obviously
that is disappointing given the fuss that was made about it.
Anyway much more importantly I really enjoyed the backstage pass that you
set up in Burnley. It was great to see dozens of unfamiliar faces with
people from the museums working closely to create new articles. I see that
ClemRutter has done some great work loading up images etc. The Queen Street
Mill was a real find and I was chatting with people from nearby museums and
museum trainees who seemed interested in finding out what was possible
using Wikipedia.
Walsall looks interesting too and we are planning a trip to come and see
what can be done. I also cannot resist telling you that Gibraltar now has
400 new articles in English making 900 articles overall. I'm particularly
pleased with the support we get locally both in Gib and in the UK.
So well done .... again

I'm pleased to announce that The New Art
Gallery Walsall:

where I am currently Wikipedian in Residence, today began to deploy
QRpedia codes alongside a number the artworks in their collection.
Given that a whois search still doesn't show
qrpedia.org as assign to
WMUK I would describe that move as unwise.
