Morning Everyone, As you might know, the 2013 conference will be in Lincoln, organised by the Conference Committee with support from the office. With the venue chosen, we now need to figure out an exciting programme. A lot of this is in the planning stage and we will be releasing more information later, however one of the first thing we need to do is figure out some keynote speakers. Later in the year we will be calling for papers and speakers from within the community, right now we are focusing on finding one or two "big names" who have something relevant to say. As this is your concert we need to know who you want to hear from! It could be anyone; from celerities, to politicians, to activists. We're looking for intriguing suggestions, people with a unique perspective. Some initial suggestions have been made, please please do suggest further ideas here on the mailing list, by emailing myself or posting on this page: http://uk.wikimedia.org/wiki/WikiConference_UK_2013/Speakers Regards, Tom _______________________________________________ Wikimedia UK mailing list wikimediauk-l(a)wikimedia.org http://mail.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikimediauk-l WMUK: http://uk.wikimedia.org

Well we have a list of Grade I listed buildings in every county. I'm sure it would be easy enough to have a bot do the same for Grade II* and Scheduled Ancient Monuments, and that gives us a ready-made target list. How much more organisation is needed, beyond creating the necessary project pages on the relevant wikis and getting the word out?

A WLM speaker would be great... last year it was mentioned, but only as a plea for someone to step forward and organise the UK effort. I looked into what it would take but it seems a larger job than I'd have time for given my other committements - is there noone from the GLAM side of things who can take it on??

(national or European) I doubt someone from the international team would qualify as a ''keynote'' (maybe regular though?) but someone from Heritage England or even one of the European umbrella organizations (Europa Nostra, Europeana) could do something? Just a thought, Lodewijk 2013/1/15 Jon Davies <jon.davies(a)wikimedia.org.uk> AGM 8th of June with more activities on the 9th.
