The
producer of Melvyn Bragg's In Our Time are wondering if there'd be
any value in adding episodes from the In Our Time archive, which is now
complete, to relevant Wikipedia entries?
This is fab! I am a great fan of In Our
Time and as someone else said,
the programmes would certainly be suitable additions to some of our
articles.
If there are transcripts that are licensable they would go well on
WikiSource.
As you've seen elsewhere on this mailinglist I'm convening GLAM-WIKI in
London later this year. One of the attendees on a panel session will be from
the BBC archives and the director of the archives wrote to us directly to
suggest him. I've written back to thank him but also to point him to the
issues raised in this thread and see if there was any possibility along
these lines. We'll see :-)
