Hello, you may remember the WMIT WIR at BEIC; if not, see links in English. :) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:GLAM/BEIC Last week, the 10 months collaboration came to an end; I published a lenghty report/case study in Italian. TL;DR: free software developed, 10 BEIC staff contributing, a thousand images uploaded, 6500 usages, 400 articles created, 4 millions accesses/month. https://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Progetto:GLAM/BEIC/2015-07 The partnership between WMIT and BEIC will actually continue, but I'll have a non-BEIC job at WMIT and a non-wiki job at BEIC. So I'll do little/no editing for BEIC; probably some planning, training, uploading and maybe coding. Maybe WMIT will keep providing BEIC a wiki editor and invoice for it, maybe not. I have some requests from you! I hope you can help. 1) Comments on the past months, e.g. based on the monthly updates or brutal numbers. 2) Suggestions on what is worth translating of the report. There are passages trying to push institutions to free software, open data, public domain, community consultation, involvement of staff. Someone liked my metaphor "be like mushroom, not sequoias". But maybe this is all covered better elsewhere already? 3) Recommendations on how to update https://outreach.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikipedian_in_Residence . Should I still be listed there, or call the WIR done? Where to record the WMIT-BEIC partnership? 4) Lessons from other partnerships with institutions having an in-house wikimedian not doing wiki work. (Other than Sannita/Luca at ICCU...) Perhaps Scotland, Netherlands and Switzerland have more to say as AFAICT they are all moving towards a permanent team serving multiple institutions à la traveling WIR, like WMIT.

P.s.: Sorry for cross-posting but I think it's better than many overlapping messages; if possible reply on each list to the parts relevant for that list and cc only me, not all the other lists.
