Hi everyone,
This is just a heads-up - our Vice-President Gideon Digby was interviewed
today as part of a segment for The Project on Channel Ten. The segment
will discuss the recent news article about Victoria Police computers being
used to edit a Wikipedia page about an event they were involved in. <

>
There is plenty of discussion online, and no doubt will be more after the
segment is broadcast (6:30pm tonight).

We would also like to encourage people to put the article <
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Death_of_Tyler_Cassidy> on their watchlist if
possible.
We expect this will provide an opportunity to build relationships with
mainstream media organisations so that we can provide background and
context to many of the decisions and events that occur in the Wikimedia
community.
Hopefully The Project will put up a clip after the show - I'll pass it on
if I see anything!
Regards,
