Hi Pine, et. al. I am seeing a lot of WikiSource in GLAM projects, including: - https://en.wikisource.org/wiki/Wikisource:WikiProject_NARA - https://fr.wikisource.org/wiki/Wikisource:BAnQ - https://fr.wikisource.org/wiki/Wikisource:Aider_pour_la_livraison_BnF - https://it.wikisource.org/wiki/Wikisource:Collaborazioni And I am also hearing about similar projects in Indic languages, though not quite as well documented -- I would love to hear about more GLAM projects in Wikisource :) Cheers, Alex On Wed, Jul 20, 2016 at 6:10 PM, Pine W <wiki.pine(a)gmail.com> wrote:

Hello, Does anyone running education or GLAM programs use WikiVoyage, WikiSource, WikiSpecies, or WikiNews in their programs? If so, how do you use them? I can imagine some possibilities for them, but I can't recall ever them being used in education or GLAM programs.

Hi Pine. There are some reports here on the Wikisource Community User Group page: https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikisource_Community_User_Group#Updates Also, if you want some updates make sure to subscribe to the wikisource-l mailing list, when the conversation usually happens. https://*lists*.*wikimedia*.org/*mail*man/*list*info/*wikisource-l* <https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikisource-l> Aubrey On Thu, Jul 21, 2016 at 3:01 AM, Pine W <wiki.pine(a)gmail.com> wrote:

Thanks everyone. I might suggest that we keep a centralized list of GLAM+STEM and Education projects, probably on the Outreach wiki, to facilitate awareness and communication. As far as I know, we currently have no easy way to figure out what projects are planned, are happening, or have happened. These don't need to be elaborate reports; a simple list of locations and dates with links to the project pages would be great. Alex, is this something that you and Tighe could look into coordinating?

Thanks everyone, this is good to know. The attention to WikiSource is interesting and more than I anticipated. My guess is that we all have room to grow our activities on WikiVoyage and other projects as well. Those of us who meet at WikiConference North America in October might have a chance to discuss these issues in person. The conference website is https://wikiconference.org/wiki/2016/Main_Page. The conference organizers are working on many tasks at the moment. Hopefully session submissions will be open within the next few weeks. The current plan is to have conference sessions in both Spanish and English. If you're interested in coming to the conference, please mark October 7–10 on your calendars.

Hi Pine, We made a contest in Wikisource [1]. The results were very good, we made 1238 new pages but they´re very few participants. If you need something else I would love to chat with you. Regards.
