Wikimedia Nederland - report January 2009
by Lodewijk 26 Feb '09

26 Feb '09

see also online: http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimedia_chapters/Reports/Wikimedia_Nederla… Content Online Platform Esther Hoorn attended on behalf of Wikimedia Nederland the Content Online Platform in Brussels on the invitation of the EU Commissioner Reding. The main subjects were the "protection of minors" and "cultural diversity online". A report has been submitted to the chapters and the Wikimedia Foundation. The importance of media literacy was stressed and the IWF-case was discussed (an IWF representative was present by chance). During the second part, the importance for free licenses for content was stressed for a diversity of material and some experience of Wikimedia with linguistic diversity was shared. New Year reception, photo hunt Together with Creative Commons Nederland and Open Streetmap Nederland Wikimedia Nederland organized a new year reception in Amsterdam. This was preceded by a photo hunt, where the challenge was to make photos for articles in Wikipedia which did not have a good photo yet. The photographer of the winning picture obtained a prize. The meeting was attended mostly by Wikipedians, but also OSM'ers and CC'ers were present. General Assemblee, New Board On January 31, Wikimedia Nederland had it's annual General Assemblee with the approval of the financial figures, budget and the election of a new board, the presentation of ongoing and new projects and the introduction of the "small subsidies". A new board of six was elected, including four new board members. The new board consists of Jose Spierts (president), Mark Wesbeek (treasurer), Hay Kranen (secretary), Lodewijk Gelauff (international affairs), Piter Siebenga and Marco Swart. Small Subsidies project Wikimedia Nederland launched a "small subsidies" project. €1000 has been budgeted to be used for innovative requests which help the Wikimedia projects forth. The idea has been partially based on similar initiatives in other chapters. With the project, Wikimedia Nederland hopes to stimulate the inventivity of Wikimedians and to make small projects with a relative large impact possible. Wikipedia Loves Art Inspired by the 'Wikipedia loves art' initiative in New York earlier, Wikimedia Nederland will organize an event together with Creative Commons Nederland. The event is still in planning stages, but the idea is to let around 10-15 museums participate in a contest where Wikipedians are challenged to make photos of artistic works in those musea under a free license for Wikipedia. On the 21st of June, the longest day of the year, an event will be held where the best picture will get elected. Wikimania 2010 During the General Assemblee it was confirmed that Wikimedia Nederland will continue with a bid get Wikimania 2010 to the Netherlands. A banner was voted for and a report was given to the General Assemblee about the current status of the bid. The assemblee was enthousiastic about the bid, and voted in favor of continuing with it.

Wikimedia Italia news no. 23 - January 8th, 2009
by Nemo_bis 05 Feb '09

05 Feb '09

Available at http://www.wikimedia.it/index.php/Wikimedia_news/numero_23/en. Editorial Dear members, another year is gone and our association enters in 2009 with a lot of important events. The WMI Members' Meeting is nearer and nearer, and we urge all members to attend it. In February we will also host "wikimangia", an event which, like in the past years, wants to gather at the same banquet table people from the various wiki projects to stay together, laugh, eat and generally enjoy ourselves. Future events * *January 9*, Reggio Emilia: at Gabella, a meeting about Wikipedia and Wikimedia; Paginazero will attend it. * *February 14/15*, Monte Amiata: we'll have the fourth edition of "wikimangia". All members and non-members are invited; keep in mind that the event is focused on eno-gastronomy, so /no more wikitalks and go eat and drink/. If you want to confirm your attending, go to the page on wikipedia <http://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Amiata_2009_-_Wikimangia_4>. * *March 22*, Milano: Ordinary and Extraordinary WMI Members' Meeting, at Domus Academy, via Giacomo Watt 37. News from our projects News from Italian WMF projects * *Wikiquote*: added a new parameter <http://www.wikipedia.org/wiki/q:it:Template:Interprogetto/man#Wikipedia_int…> to the template Interproject to connect to Wikipedia articles in other languages (here <http://www.wikipedia.org/wiki/q:it:Pierre_V%C3%A9ron> an example); BimBot <http://www.wikipedia.org/wiki/q:it:Utente:BimBot> created 4129 redirects ftom the same number of works' titles to the corresponding paragraphs of 1767 articles; all sysops were given bureaucrat flag, as per consensus <http://it.wikiquote.org/w/index.php?title=Wikiquote:Bar&oldid=227881#Burocr…>. * *Wikisource*: reached 20.000 texts. * *Wikizionario*: two new policies are adopted. One to recategorize all flexed forms <http://www.wikipedia.org/wiki/wikt:it:Wikizionario:Bar/Archivio/2008-13#una…>, so that categories may be more effective; another to recategorize specialized terminology <http://www.wikipedia.org/wiki/wikt:it:Wikizionario:discussione_policy#Termi…>. These policies will lead to the deletion and creation of hundreds of categories. News from Musica Musica completely renewed its home page, adding an area showing new uploads. During the last month, two operas of Giuseppe Verdi and some new punk albums were added. News from the Association As per our charter, the Board called an *Ordinary and Extraordinary Wikimedia Italia Members' Meeting*, which will be held in *Milano* on *March 22, 2009*. This meeting is really important for our Association; besides usual management issues (budget and resolutions' approval) and the usual talks among members and wikipedias, we are aiming to *change the charter* of the Association. Among the changes proposed there is the lowering of the quorum needed to make further changes to the charter itself (now it is set at three quarters of the members, and we risk to have the Association locked up), and the modifications needed to become an *Associazione di promozione sociale* (APS: see it.wiki <http://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Associazione_di_promozione_sociale>). Becoming an APS allows us to have several facilitations: the most important one is the deducibility (or partial deductivity) of the donations to the Association. Board Deliberations * Virtual Skiz asked for and was appointed coordinator of the Association for Campania. Nomination lasts three months since deliberation. * Board approved unanimously transfer of €3.500,00 to Wikimedia Foundation. This is the whole amount of donations to Wikimedia Italia in 2008 (€1.700,00), and 30% of proceeds of gadgets' sell.

Wikimedia Nederland - report December 2008
by Eia 09 Jan '09

09 Jan '09

Hi all, please find below the summaries of the activities of WMNL in december. The activities are somewhat lower, since the end of the year involved a lot of things that are not worth while reporting (financial statements, annual report blabla). This will most likely be the last report from this board, because on January 31 there is a general assemblee with board elections. The annual chapter report for 2008 can probably be expected around march/april this year (hopefully before the chapters meetup in Berlin). Evaluation of the annual national conference will also be concluded this month, and if interest is there, I can translate the core results in English. If you have any question, please let me know. Yours, Lodewijk Content Online Platform On the suggestion of Angela (and Wikimedia Nederland), Esther Hoorn has been invited as an expert to the Content Online Platform. Topics include protection of minors and cultural diversity online. Legal Wikimedia Nederland has won the legal case against Sijthoff. This because the judge agreed with Wikimedia Nederland that Wikimedia Nederland has no legal or technical influence on the content of the projects. New year cards Wikimedia Nederland has sent new year cards to its members and allies. People who has meant something special to the association received a hand written note. Besides this, invitations have been sent for the new year drink on January 17, which is organized in Amsterdam together with Creactive Commons Nederland and Open Streetmap NL. We have already had quite some positive feedback on them. Press Quite some attention (side news) for the outcome of the legal case. Mostly positive'ish towards Wikimedia. Also interest for the 10k articles for the Frysian Wikipedia (including interview on Omrop Fryslan) and some minor subjects for more foreign issues.

Wikimeda Polska November-December report 2008

Hi, This is Wikimedia Polska report for November and December. It is available here: http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimedia_chapters/Reports/Wikimedia_Polska/… === Financial matters === We have finally sorted out tax deducible donations list and calculated current cash-flow. We have actually 146 585.80 PLN (around 36 827 EUR) + 99 EUR on our bank accounts. Until 12.12.2008 we have raised 176 823.54 PLN (44 4234 EUR) of which 136 636.05 PLN were tax deducible donations and 40 187.49 other sources of income. At the same time we have spent 42 040.67 PLN (10 562 EUR). The vast majority of our costs were various direct and indirect support of Polish Wikimedia project's community (travel costs to various conferences, organising meetings and conferences, wikicontest etc.). === Meetings === [[File:Wikiakademy pl chorzow.JPG|thumb|200px|left|Wikiacademy in Chorzów]] ;Wikiacademy for teachers in Chorzów : On 23 October 2008 we have organized a one day Wikiacademy in Chorzów.

Wikimedia Sverige - December
by jan＠ainali.com 01 Jan '09

01 Jan '09

Here is Wikimedia Sverige chapters report for December 2008. == Seminars and conferences == We were invited to speak about Wikipedia at the Christmas conference for professors at teacher programs. It was a nationwide event held at the University of Karlstad. The talk was taped and it is available online.[1] == In media == === Early announcement of Swedish Idol winner === Just a few days before the final of the Swedish Idol the page on Wikipedia gets vandalised by announcing the winner as if the final already took place. Unfortunately it stays there for 18 hours before being reverted, long enough for one of the biggest Swedish tabloids to pick up the news.[2] Although this wasn't a major situation it shows there is still some education to do since the paper wrote "those responsible for Wikipedia have now removed the information". === Donations / Fundraiser === Wikimedia Sverige received a donation from the media company Mindpark. The donation was 1 per employee (totalling 2000) and 500 from the CEO. It was also a challenge to other companies to do the same, and so far one CEO have matched this. This and the fundraiser was noticed in one of Sweden's biggest newspapers, with a surprisingly accurate article. [3] The 29th of December one journalist writes in her blog "Why I never will donate to Wikipedia" about how the article about her blog was being deleted for the reason it was not notable. Lennart, our chair, gave a very good reply, which in turn hasn't got a reply from the journalist. The interesting part is that Wikimedia Sverige noticed a substantial increase of donations after this. == Milestones == === Swedish Wikipedia reaches 300 000 articles === At 14:23, December, 13 Swedish Wikipedia reached 300 000 articles. The 300 000th article was Arvidsjaurs kyrka [4] a church in the northern Sweden. Wikimedia Sverige issued a press release [5] that were picked up by Piteåtidningen.[6] Some tables and graphs are available.[7] === Swedish Wikipedia has more than 92 488 users === Why is this significant? Because it is more than 1 % of the population of Sweden. User 92 489 is [[:sv:w:User:Akew]] and signed up on 30 December. == Wikipedia Academy aftermath == Without any involvement from WMSE, one of the participants at WA arranged his own seminar about Wikipedia and general criticism of sources at the University of Kalmar.[8] We believe that is a huge step towards a more broadened and nuanced (or should I say relevant) debate. == Board meetings == During this period we have had one board meeting. One of the most important outcome was the decision to get an online payment system for donations. Minutes are only available in Swedish. [9] == Members newsletter == We have sent out one newsletter to our members. It is available in English.[10] Jan Ainali [[User:Ainali]] for Wikimedia Sverige ==Links== [1] http://video.kau.se/tcs/#page:conferenceList&status:recorded&pageNumber:1 [2] http://www.aftonbladet.se/nojesbladet/idol2008/article3957304.ab [3] http://www.dn.se/DNet/jsp/polopoly.jsp?d=2374&a=868568 [4] http://sv.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arvidsjaurs_kyrka [5] http://se.wikimedia.org/wiki/Pressmeddelande_2008-12-13 [6] http://www.pitea-tidningen.se/nyheter/artikel.aspx?ArticleId=4266413 [7] http://sv.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipediadiskussion:300K [8] http://www.newsdesk.se/view/pressrelease/foerelaesning-om-wikipedia-och-kae… [9] http://se.wikimedia.org/wiki/M%C3%B6tesprotokoll/Protokoll_2008-12-15 [10] http://se.wikimedia.org/wiki/Nyhetsbrev/Nummer_6,_2008/english

Wiki UK Limited December newsletter
by Michael Peel 26 Dec '08

26 Dec '08

The December newsletter has been published at http:// meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimedia_UK_v2.0/Newsletter/December2008 and is copied below for your convenience: Summary: You can now join Wiki UK Ltd, which hopes to become the official UK chapter of Wikimedia in January. The organisation is planning its first Annual General Meeting, where members can vote on who is on the board, and put forward and vote on resolutions. The organisation is already supporting activities such as a bid to hold Wikimania 2010 in Oxford and the exciting Wikipedia Loves Art project at the Victoria and Albert Museum. We also bring you news of the the recent Wikimeet in London. In this month's newsletter: 1. Chapter formation 2. Membership 3. AGM 4. Wikimania 2010 - Oxford bid 5. Wikipedia Loves Art 6. London Wikimeet Chapter formation As mentioned in our November newsletter, the Chapters Committee has recommended we are approved as a chapter of Wikimedia, and we are expecting the Wikimedia Foundation to decide on this at their next meeting, on 9th–11th January. We hope to complete bank account opening shortly after we are approved. In the meantime, we are preparing for the rush of events which will happen immediately afterwards (see http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimedia_UK_v2.0/ Timeline ), and we are also supporting activities ranging from the bid to hold Wikimania 2010 in Oxford to Wikipedia Loves Art. Membership As we announced in our last newsletter, we are now inviting membership applications: being a member gives you an official say in what the company does, allowing you to attend and vote at AGMs, put forward written resolutions, elect the new boards at the AGMs, and much more. You can download the application form here: http:// meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/ File:Wiki_UK_Ltd_membership_application_form.pdf . We will start processing the applications received as soon as the bank account is set up. We should also be able to accept tax- refundable donations at that point, and claim back the tax from the donations already received with the permission of the donors. AGM As soon as the chapter status is approved and the bank account opened, the board will move to call the first AGM. This is currently pencilled in for the end of February, giving us enough time to give the statutory notice and to organise the elections. However, if there are any delays this may be pushed back. The draft of the agenda for the AGM (see http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimedia_UK_v2.0/AGM ) currently includes the election of the first permanent Board, discussing the priorities of the chapter and passing some formal resolutions. Wikimania 2010 - Oxford bid Wiki UK Limited is keen to bring Wikimania to the UK, and the 2010 Oxford bid still seems like the best chance we will have for this in the next few years, since there is a common feeling that 2010 is Europe's year. Organising a conference on the scale of Wikimania is a lot of work, and we desperately need your help (see below for details of things you could do). A lot of progress was made on the bid over the summer, but since then the momentum has died down a little due to the other commitments of those who had been working on it. In the last few weeks, Seddon has once again begun work, obtaining the support of the local flickr group, and investigating a new source of sponsorship for us. How you can help: * work on the bid page (expand existing sections, fill in place holders) - see http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimania_2010/Bids/Oxford * contact potential sponsors and partners on our behalf (see http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimania_2010/Bids/ Oxford#Organisations_not_currently_being_investigated and the talk page) * show your support by signing up as a member of the local team: http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimania_2010/Bids/Oxford#Local_team Wikipedia Loves Art The Victoria and Albert Museum, the world's largest museum of decorative arts and design with a collection of over 4.5 million objects, is joining in with a world-wide project in February 2009 to photograph major pieces of work and release the images under public licence: Wikipedia Loves Art. They have invited Wikipedians to get involved in collecting the images, putting them online and using them in Wikipedia articles. More information is available here: http:// en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WP:WLA@V%26A . Please sign up to get involved and let us have your ideas! London Wikimeet Sunday 14th December saw the 16th London Wikipedia meetup ( http:// en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Meetup/London_16 ). As the numbering suggests the meetups have been running for quite some time, with the first one in June 2004. The meetups currently take the form of a pub lunch at the Penderel's Oak in Holborn on the second Sunday of every month. Eight Wikipedians came along, falling within the stereotypical Wikipedia demographic (15-45, higher education, involvement in a non- manual job). Topics discussed included Wikimedia UK and its current status, the (now concluded) Arbitration Committee elections, (briefly) contract law and various other tidbits. The meetups are excellent fun and a good opportunity to meet other Wikipedia contributors and get to know them; several projects people have worked on have come about as a result of interactions with people at these meetups. The next one is due to be held on Sunday 11th January 2009 at 13:00 (see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Meetup/ London_17 ). Wiki UK Limited is a Company Limited by Guarantee registered in England and Wales, Registered No. 6741827. The Registered Office is at 23 Cartwright Way, Nottingham, NG9 1RL, United Kingdom.

Wikimedia Italia Report (December 2008)
by Nemo_bis 15 Dec '08

15 Dec '08

*W i K i M e D i A N e W s* no. 22 - December 3rd, 2008 Official monthly bulletin from Wikimedia Italia Association. Editorial This number of Wikimedia News, just before Christmas, is being published in a characteristic period for our association and all of WMF; we are in the middle of fundraising (http://wikimediafoundation.org/wiki/Donate/it). I believe that everybody, and especially our members, know that it's necessary to support, also financially, both Wikimedia Italia and Wikimedia Foundation. Together with the usual reports for activities and events, so, the Board wants to urge all readers to take part, both physically and financially, in the needs of the the association. Senpai What happened last month * November 2, Pavia: we attended /Sapere libera tutti!/, a day dedicated to the new ways for creating a collective culture. The report from EdoM: I don't know what kind of promotion the event had, but at least in the morning there were just we speakers among the members of WMI. I don't know if in the afternoon some other people came. Cristina Moretto made a short introduction, then Simone talked about history and logic of the licenses. His talk was quite interesting, and the public from a lot of questions. I talked more or less for 20 minutes about wiki philosophy and the various projects. The other speakers were Simone Cortesi (OSM) and Christian Biasco (about his work). * November 28-30, Faenza: we attended Meeting delle Etichette Indipendenti. The report from Senpai: This year, Meeting delle Etichette Indipendenti was below par. Maybe there were less visitors, but it's certain that they were much less willing to support our projects. Takins were much lower than last year: many visitors looked at our stand, said "Oh, Wikipedia", and then went away. I had the impression that the casual user takes our projects for grant. Maybe we should try and explain that the fact that Wikipedia and the other WMF project are free (as in beer) does not mean that we don't need money to run them. Maybe we could think at some effective slogan to let people know that the lack of donations will lead to the closing of the projects. Leaving aside the financial issues, we took advantage from MEI. We managed to get in touch with some music companies interested in copyleft; in the near future we will be therefore able to insert a lot of new content, especially for classical music, but also for some rock and electronic music, in the pages of our project Musica <http://musica.wikimedia.it>. Future events * March WMI Meeting: The meeting which should let us change our Charter and eventually become a Non Profit association might not be held. After the proposal of a few location for the meeting, no official bid has been made yet: we need to have a final bid by the end of December, or the meeting shall not be held. * Wikimangia: Since March and April 2009 will be full of events (WMI Meeting, Chapter Meeting, Easter), Senpai thought that it would be nice to anticipate the usual "eat-and-drink-alot" gathering in February. The program will consist in a day of skiing (Saturday), while laziers will appreciate the typical pubs near the ski tracks, and quaff hot chocolate or alcoholic beverages. As usual, we need quickly to know how many people think to attend the event, so please gave us some feedback! News from our projects News from Italian WMF projects * *Wikibooks*: New logo <http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Image:Wikibooks_simple_book_blue_beige.svg> was approved. We need just the last details. * *Wikinotizie*: Reached 6,500 articles. * *Wikipedia*: Fundraiser started. Here there are the statistics <http://blog.wikimedia.org/2008/11/25/wikimedias-fundraiser-which-banners-cl…> about efficacy of the various requests to donate. * *Wikiquote*: A proposal <http://en.wikiquote.org/wiki/Wikiquote:it:Bar#Burocrazia> was made to promote all sysop to bureaucrat, like in es.wiki. Two new pages featured: /Matrix <http://en.wikiquote.org/wiki/it:Matrix>/ and /Fight Club <http://en.wikiquote.org/wiki/it:Fight_Club_%28film%29>/. /Catechismo della Chiesa cattolica <http://en.wikiquote.org/wiki/it:Catechismo_della_Chiesa_cattolica>/ was voice #8,000. * *Wikisource*: Still discussions <http://www.wikipedia.org/wiki/s:it:Wikisource:Bar#Sempre_sempre_copyright_.…> about copyright: text of posters, leaflets, flysheets, may be defined /public domain/ like public speeches? * *Wikiversità*: Danielg <http://www.wikipedia.org/wiki/v:it:Utente:Danielg> quit from sysop. * *Wikizionario*: Approved <http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/it:Wikizionario:Discussione_policy#transfen_e…> a rule which will lead to deletion of thousands <http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/it:Categoria:Da_ricontrollare> of lemmata <http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/it:Categoria:Voci_trasferite_dal_wikizionario…> automatically imported from en.wikt in 2005 and 2007. News from association * Wikimedia Italia, together with Wikimedia Nederland <http://nl.wikimedia.org>, sent a statement about the Green Paper on copyright <http://www.wikimedia.it/index.php/Libro_verde_su_%C2%ABIl_diritto_d%27autor…> which European Union prepared (the link refers to the statement by Wikimedia Italia). * For the holiday season, our Association promotes *"Regala Wikimedia"* (Wikimedia as present). Through our online shop, at this page <http://shop.wikimedia.it/index.php?main_page=gv_faq>, people may buy a gift token that can be spent in Xmas gadgets by WMI; we suggest to every member to pamper her/himself with a wikigift! By the way, we added new pins and some stickers; we are also purchasing a new model of t-shirt and a new sweatshirt. * Wikimedia Hungary <http://wiki.media.hu>, one of the latest Wikimedia Chapters, partially modeled its homepage after ours. News from Biblioteca * Mizardellorsa has nearly completed the upload of the latest book by Simone Aliprandi about copyleft. Whoever wants to lend a hand will find our guidelines here <http://biblioteca.wikimedia.it/wiki/Guida_all%27uso_delle_licenze_e_degli_a…>. News from Musica * At MEI we approached some recording label interested in copyleft. During the next days we will fatten our site.
