I'm pleased to announce that, as of yesterday, I am working part-time as Wikimedian in Residence at Coventry University.
It's early days, but I shall be pleased to hear from any Coventry Wikimedians, or anyone local to the University's campuses in Scarborough, Dagenham, and the City of London who may be interested i attending editing events.
I have set up a project page, at:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:GLAM/Coventry_University

Sure thing Andy, no rush. One small request - for comms purposes, what is really useful is to have an image of the Wikimedian in Residence in front of the institution which they are working at, like this image of Jason at the NLW https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Jason_Evans_WiR_at_Llyfrgell_Genedlaethol_National_Library_of_Wales_03.JPG. Do you think you might be able to arrange someone to take a decent quality photo of you like this which could be used in blogs about the residency?

Sure. Unlike me, the Lanchester Library, where I'm based, is quite photogenic. This also might take a week or two, though,as I'm not there every work day.
Hey Andy! Congratualtions :) *Waves from Scotland*

Project is 18 years old. Are we really Disruptive Media at this point?

Not really local to any of those but might show up if you come up with something I view as interesting enough
