Aye, I just saw it too! Matthew Roth (from WMF) is impressed about the coverage, and overall it's not a bad piece...

There's a great article about MonmoutpediA in the Guardian today; congratulations to all involved, it's a great advert for our work, despite some (baseless) naysaying.
However (there's always a catch!), the article says:
By April the aim is to dot 1,000 QR codes – a barcode that smartphones can read – around the border town. Visitors will be able to use their
phones to scan the QR codes and view the Wikipedia page (in the language their phone is set up for) relevant to where they are standing.
which is good, but doesn't use the word QRpedia. can we try to include/. emphasise that name on our marketing; or if we did, encourage journalists to use it?
