1) It is good recognition that the Wikimedia movement is a stakeholder in the development of heritage and educational resources.

This should help us build up our network of institutional partners, particularly (but not exclusively) aimed at the World War I centenary, and help lay the groundwork for some exciting collaboration work in the future.
Any questions, or if you'd like to express your interest in being involved in future work on the World War I centenary, please give me a shout.

This might be a moment to go public with an idea I have been mulling over for a couple of months, prompted by "Wiki Loves Monuments". I have this thought that WMUK should host a "UK sites" wiki, organised around physical "sites of cultural significance" in the UK.
I had in mind "meta for WLM", in other words a coordination wiki across all the projects for material that can be tied in to the monument concept, and allowing discussion of/participation by relevant institutions. E.g. if there is a need to contact local authorities, a place to house what results, and to point to.
The way discussion is going, expanding the scope to allow for GLAM activity that ties into any given site looks like a good idea. "Stakeholder in the development of heritage and educational resources" is pretty much what was at the back of my mind.
