Subject: Re: [Wikimediauk-l] What next with QRpedia?

+1 on the leaflet idea. Sending a leaflet to every museum in the country (all 10,000 of them) could be very effective.

Thanks,

Mike

I could train a chimp to make QRpedia codes in ten minutes, so training sessions are probably overkill. This is the sort of learning that can be done easily by reading a leaflet or watching a video (there's a nice little project for somebody).

Richard's idea of a template for small museums sounds good - it would help ensure that nobody 'creative' decides that incorporating the Wikipedia logo would be a good idea (which is really the only caveat required for their use).

Cheers

I think a small leaflet about it would be a great start. Something that museums etc can use to set up their own uses of it without having to involve WMUK at all. A "How-to" guide.

Perhaps we could also come up with templates etc for labels that small museums can use.

We are now dotting the 'i's and crossing the 't's on QRpedia. The next question is how do we make sure the community benefits from it? Do we need training, events etc? We have already started a FAQ page to help those who want to use it but is there more we can do?

Can we get some ideas going?
