UK Wikipedians needed for BBC 'Imagine' programme - WikiEN-l

7 Aug 2006


      I've been speaking to a few people at the BBC about this. I'll be
helping them with whatever I can, but they could do with more of the
fiercely addicted editors, particularly those who've been on Wikipedia
for a fair while! Here's something they sent me to send to you all:
"BBC ONE's 'Imagine' programme is looking for UK-based regular
Wikipedia contributors.  We are making a film about how the internet
has changed our culture and want to show how Wikipedia has developed
and the way it works.  We're especially keen to hear from people
who've had a 'Featured Article' on the homepage, or who contribute
very regularly.  Please contact us at imagineinternet@hotmail.co.uk,
and leave your phone number plus an outline of your subject
interests."
So far they seem very clueful and like they're going to try hard to do
us justice. All good :-) I should be meeting up with them some time
this week (helps that I work just nearby ;-).
