Dear best-practices-team!
We are taking big steps forward on existing articles like *Assigning
Wikipedia articles as coursework to students, *and *Using Wikibooks in the
classroom *and on new pages like *Building a content partnership with a
cultural institution, *and *Wikimedia loves photography events.
*In the last weeks we had inspiring discussions, intensive conference calls
with many dedicated Wikipedians, and we were able to engage experts from the
outside!
That brought us a lot of attention, comments, and positive feedback from the
community!
Thanks to all of you for your hard work and support!
But I have the feeling that we just started and that we are now really
picking up speed!
Jan Eissfeld has his hands full to support a variety of university projects
starting this fall. And I know that many of you are deeply involved
contributing to Wikipedia's mission!
I am eager to hear about your plans! What else can we achieve in the next
months? What issues need to be addressed on the best-practices pages?
How could you contribute to this? Who else could join our team?
Do you know of any interesting activities in the chapters?
Should we change/ improve our communication channels (IRC-meetings)?
Please, share your ideas, thoughts, or plans with us (you can also use the
planning calendar):

Thanks again for your wonderful support!
