Good news everyone,
Cheese articles are gonna get improved!
As french, it was dreadful for us to see so few illustrations of cheese on Wikipedia. This is about to change.
A group of french Wikimedians, lead by Pierre-Yves Beaudouin, designed a project to photograph many cheeses, up to 200 for the moment.
This project is perticular as we aim to have it found through a french crowdfunding platform, KissKissBankBank.
Of course Wikimedia France could have funded it itself, but we wanted to use the project as a way to get the larger audience aware of their ability to contribute and to give a fun image of contributing.
The project in few words iss follow : * 10 cheeses per session * During the session the cheeses are photographed and their articles improved * During the sessions experimented wikimedian would train new editors * At every session every participant would enjoy eating good cheese too
If you want to read more, or even contribute, about the project you can go on KissKissBankBank : http://www.kisskissbankbank.com/fr/projects/wikicheese
If you have any questions, please feel free to shoot them on or off list.
All the best,
-- Christophe
