I saw this on another list and think it is of interest to US GLAM people
-- including people who are not technologists.

Dear all,
a ship is cruising rivers in and around Germany with a science
exhibition every year. The topic for next year is the digital society,
and you are invited to edit the exhibition, e.g. by proposing
individual exhibits or by making suggestions about the overall
concept.
The project page in German is at
http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:GLAM/Ausstellungen/MS_Wissenschaft_%…
,
and a summary in English sits at
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:GLAM/Ship .
Thanks and cheers,
Daniel
This sort of tool is, in its most general form, not specific to Wikipedia.
Are there any widespread tools for tracking visibility of an archive
on other sites on the web?

Cool! Thanks for pointing me to the right direction.
However I need something a bit more, including more languages and
categorization of types of pages (encyclopedia article page, talk and
other "house-keeping" pages) since the goal is to build a tool for
measuring Wkipedia presence of digital humanities websites.
For the case of measuring welshjournals.llgc.org.uk, I believe that
stats from Welsh Wikipedia (cy.wikipedia.org) is necessary for this
case, but not included by the LinkSearch.
Best,
han-teng liao

The meeting's over. Video should or will be up on youtube (and maybe
eventually commons?) watch the glamout page onwiki.

Hi all!****
** **
We will be hosting our next edition of the GLAMout tomorrow (or today,
depending on your time zone!), July 12, starting at 3 p.m. EDT (12 p.m. PDT
/ 07:00 UTC). GLAMout is an opportunity to share news and information with
one another, and hear what is going on in GLAM-Wiki. This month, we will be
hearing about the Chemical Heritage Foundation's new Wikipedian in
Residence and latest editathon, the Smithsonian Institution Archives'
editathon, and the GLAM-Wiki US Consortium's new Wikimedia affiliate status.
We are still looking for more participants! If you have your own GLAM-Wiki
news to share, or would simply like to be part of the on-air conversation,
please sign up at:**
** **
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:GLAM/GLAMout
And you can also watch the broadcast live on YouTube, and send in
questions/comments to the participants using the #glamwiki hashtag. We will
be tweeting the link to the live video on that hashtag from @glamwiki
shortly before the broadcast, so please follow along!
Dominic
