Dear colleagues,
I need your help.
In a weeks time, I am invited by the Norwegian Science Council to meet them and lecture and discuss about how they can nurture and contribute to the Wikipedia.
The Science Council (Forskningsrådet) organizes all the universities, colleges, and institutes sector as regards research, through funding and program evalution.
The task is that they will first produce a "do-it-your-self-kit" to scientists and researchers on how they can fulfill they obligation of educating the public. Thereafter, they will work more targetedly with pinpointing and contributing directly to the Wikipedia, probably Commons too.
Our good partners in the Arts Council Norway have already worked with us for a long time on their public outreach obligation, and will take part in the meeting and speak about how they have nurtured the outreach of cultural heritage through Wikipedia and Commons.
QUESTION:
Where can I find good overviews of:
- Examples of universities or institutions who have "used" Wikipedia to educate the public
- Examples of professions or individual researchers who have done the same
- Examples of formal co-operations between science and Wikimedia movement, as reference
- Examples from your chapter of co-operation with science / universities
Thank you all,
Erlend
Hello Erlend,
The Swedish Agricultural University (SLU) have been doing this for some time. All links below are in Swedish, the webinar is especially good, where Olle Terenius at SLU explains not only why, but how they actually are working with Wikipedia.

Hi Erlend: Here we go with Catalan Areas:
- Examples from your chapter of co-operation with science / universities
- We've done a Wikiproject called Science week since 2011 https://ca.wikipedia.org/wiki/Viquiprojecte:Setmana_de_la_Ci%C3%A8ncia_2011 - We've done scientific illustration in collaboration with Science institutions and design scholars : http://outreach.wikimedia.org/wiki/WikiArS (case study https://outreach.wikimedia.org/wiki/WikiArS/Case_studies) - We are doing a collaboration with the Catalan Meteorology Agency (releasing CCBYSA texts) - We have some education projects where students write science articles as home assignments https://ca.wikipedia.org/wiki/Portal:Educaci%C3%B3/Exemples
Can explain it to you more detailed if needed of list

I have recently been appointed Wikimedian in Residence at the Royal Society of Chemistry:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:GLAM/Royal_Society_of_Chemistry
It's a little early to report results, but I have already been involved in a successful collaboration with Catalan Wikipedians:
https://ca.wikipedia.org/wiki/Viquiprojecte:Setmana_de_la_Ci%C3%A8ncia_2014
and this follows from an earlier engagement between the RSC and Wikipedians:
https://wikimedia.org.uk/wiki/Royal_Society_of_Chemistry_2014_Event
You may also be interested in work to integrate ORCID identifiers into Wikipedia, Wikidata, etc:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WP:ORCID
(I am Wikipedian in Residence at ORCID, too.)
Hoi, Today or tomorrow, time permitting I will blog about how universities can check what alumni and employees are known for them in Wikipedia (ie Wikidata). At the moment I know the following: 195085 people http://tools.wmflabs.org/autolist/autolist1.html?q=CLAIM%5B31%3A5%5D%20and%20claim%5B69%5D with an alma mater, men http://tools.wmflabs.org/autolist/autolist1.html?q=CLAIM%5B31%3A5%5D%20AND%20CLAIM%5B21%3A6581097%5D%20%20and%20claim%5B69%5D 158649 women http://tools.wmflabs.org/autolist/autolist1.html?q=CLAIM%5B31%3A5%5D%20AND%20CLAIM%5B21%3A6581072%5D%20and%20claim%5B69%5D 29059 geen sex 7377.
It is very easy to provide the same information per university. It allows for editathons and special interest for the female alumni. It is for you to decide how best to use this. For your information, the Reasonator will show up to 500 linked to the item of the university .... DO REMEMBER that alumni or professors may be known in other languages... I blogged about a professor of the University of Utrecht recently... Thanks, GerardM
