An article for Guardian Higher Education Network by Liz MacCarthy (Bodleian Libraries) and Kate Lindsay (Oxford University)
This quote in particular warms my heart, given the resistance we sometimes encounter in academia: "
The importance of hosting a Wikipedia editathon in a university setting goes beyond the articles it generates. Wikipedia is an enormously important resource [...] It's useless to ignore it or simply tell students not to use it"
Another article by Liz and Kate, this time for Oxford Today, the Oxford University publication for members and alumni. I'm not sure yet if this will appear in the paper magazine, or just online.
