[Wikimediauk-l] Fwd: UK Deletionists - a request

From: "Catherine Edwards-BBC People" <Catherine.Edwards(a)bbc.co.uk> Date: 10 August 2009 18:15:10 BDT To: <michael.peel(a)wikimedia.org.uk> Subject: UK Deletionists - a request Dear Michael, Thanks very much for helping us out with this. We're making a documentary about the history of the World Wide Web, Digital Revolution, for BBC Two. A major part of our first programme, about power on the web, centres around Wikipedia. As part of this, we're hoping to find a UK Wikipedian who is a passionate Deletionist - someone who identifies with the goals of Deletionism to create a high quality encyclopaedia, and does Deletionist-type quality control themselves - perhaps someone who is a member of the Association of Deletionist Wikipedians? A bit more about the series: we're marking the 20th anniversary of the creation of the World Wide Web with a major multi-platform event: Digital Revolution (working title). This comprises an interactive website/blog, already launched ( http://www.bbc.co.uk/ digitalrevolution/), and four landmark documentaries for broadcast on BBC Two at the beginning of 2010, in the UK and across the world. Revealing the longer hidden history of technological innovation, we will assess the meaning of an extraordinary phenomenon now transforming our everyday lives, communities and institutions. If you fit the description and would like to be involved, it'd be great to hear from you! Get in touch by email - catherine.edwards(a)bbc.co.uk, or by phone - 07800 794299.
