Thank you for this and all the other resources! I just started a preliminary conversation with my co-workers about GLAM-wiki partnerships and it's much easier to make the case when you have examples. :)

Hi all,

I just wanted to point out a presentation I created for training new editors at an event the Smithsonian hosted last Friday, “Wikipedia Loves Libraries: Backstage at the Smithsonian Librarieshttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Meetup/DC/WLL/2012 .”

PDF on Commons: http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Introduction-to-Editing-Wikipedia-for...

I find that a lot of the existing tutorials are very text heavy, but this one includes lots of screenshots and visuals. Please feel free to link to it, improve it, and add it to the various lists of GLAM resources.

Best,

Sara

Agreed! This is AWESOME, Sara, thanks so much!

I don't know if this would be helpful to anyone, but I wrote up a worksheet for Wikipedia a few weeks ago, which covers editing Wikipedia, uploading images to the Commons, and using them in a Wikipedia article. Here it is, licensed CC-BY-3.0, if anybody would like to use/adapt/fix/improve it: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1Ew4MbfK3DiGxKNxpdQM7BvH3CwJNHe_v6qqoMx0m...

Courses for GLAM curators • How do i add rights info to my collection? Rights info and tagging for curators

• How to make my collection available online
