Hi Cascadians,
An idea that I've had for years is that someone could produce 30 second to 60 second, CC-licensed audio clips of Wikimedia content for NPR and BBC radio to broadcast. This would be similar to the brief daily radio program about astronomy called Stardate. I'm wondering if there would be interest in having us at Cascadia Wikimeduans approach the local NPR affiliate at UW, which is KUOW, to ask them if they would be interested in partering with us to produce and distribute these clips. Thoughts?
Pine
Hello,
In NYC we regularly meet with people from NPR and PBS to discuss collaborating.
They have requested that we articulate options for partnership. If Cascadia wanted to join conversations then you are welcome.
I already have noted my attendance to meetings as being a wiki Casadia participant.

Sounds good. I would be interested in talking with NPR in particular. If WMNYC has an NPR contact who you think would be interested in this idea, please ask them to email me so we can arrange to talk, or perhaps I can join the next regularly scheduled WMNYC meeting with NPR.

Pine,
It has not worked that way yet. They only speak as a chorus of executive staff and lawyers. This is fairly typical for any institutional relationship when they have no Wikipedian on staff. If you want to draft proposals to share with the mix then you can. Write in such a way that twenty different people who know nothing about Wikipedia will all interpret your proposal in the same way when they read it separately. 6 months would be an expected turn around for comments once we submit several proposals. Chats could happen sooner if we requested and you could join.
These kinds of meetings are burdensome for us because they take lots of time and move slowly. They do not have a single point if contact because they are scared. We do not have one because of dectralization, no paid staff, etc. On Jul 12, 2015 1:30 AM, "Pine W" wiki.pine@gmail.com wrote:

Hi all,
I'm jumping in a little late here but just wanted to provide some additional background. Over the past 9 months, the WMF Comms team and our external support agency Minassian Media have had a number of informal meetings and a more formal summit with PBS, NPR and their NYC affiliates to discuss potential collaborations. We connected them at the summit with members of Wikimedia NY and Wikimedia DC and communication has been growing since.
We're encouraging as much grassroots partnership as possible and also trying to facilitate discussion where possible. If good ideas emerge from this grassroots partnering, we hope to use our resources at the Foundation to scale up successful initiatives. We're excited to see where this collaboration will take us!

Thanks Juliet. Perhaps before I propose something new it would be good to hear what WMNY is already planning. Pharos, can you provide a link to any draft proposals?
