Hi folks,
I am pleased to announce that this morning, I start work as Wikipedian in Residence at The New Art Gallery, Walsall http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_New_Art_Gallery_Walsall
I hope to have a project page on-Wiki later today, but in brief the main part of the project will be running a series of free open events for members of the public to learn to edit Wikipedia, and to use the gallery's impressive library an archives. Of course I'll also be training gallery staff, and advising the management board on their strategic approach to open content.
This residency runs alongside my existing residency at Lancashire County Council's Queen Street Mill Textile Museum.
I hope to see some of you at one or more of the NAGW events.
Congrats and good luck, Andy!

Excellent Andy, please bug me to call in and see the Gallery - I'm bound to forget otherwise.
Congratulations, Andy.
Just to avoid any potential misunderstandings here, can I point out that this isn't a WMUK-supported WiR position, i.e. WMUK hasn't been involved in establishing or running this WiR position, and there's no contract between WMUK and the institution (as there is e.g. with TWAM and the Science Museum using an agreement like that at http://uk.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Example_WiR_agreement.pdf ). This is something that Andy's doing as an individual.
Thanks, Mike

Which, just to avoid any potential misunderstandings, is just as valid and just as valuable as the WMUK-supported WiR positions. This is, after all, a list for the UK community, not exclusively for the UK chapter.
Great work, Andy, I'll try to get to at least one of your events. Harry Mitchell

Hello Mike & others,
Each month a newsletter is send out about what activities and projects were active in the past month in relationship to GLAM (Galleries, Libraries, Archives, and Museums). The newsletter is called 'This Month in GLAM' and is send out on various ways to the Wikimedia community, enthousiasts and more. It is good to tell our own Wikimedia community and the public what activities we do regarding GLAM, as this may help other institutions participate in projects with Wikimedia and for volunteers to help out. For the newsletter about the past month the UK is missing, you mentioned in the e-mail something interesting. Is it possible that you write about it for the newsletter? Or do you know who I can ask to write about it? Thanks! (Deadline of the April edition is 8 May 18:00 UTC, I know it is short term but I hope something is possible.) You can start writing at the page http://outreach.wikimedia.org/wiki/GLAM/Newsletter/Newsroom . If you wish to be informed by e-mail next time, please write me.
Greetings,
Romaine

Perhaps Jonathan will be able to pro-actively contribute to the newsletter in future months now that we know.
Hi Doug,
I can't seem to read that message (my eyes rather than a software problem), was it in the OTRS queue? I'm not an OTRS agent, but I think the intention is that I will be at some point.
If we have an email address, someone from the office could drop him a line.

Hi Richard, Are you sure you meant this for me? I'm in Portland Oregon at the moment on a road trip and wikibreak, haven't emailed anyone about Wikipedia issues or edited for a week. doug

Hi Doug,
I can't seem to read that message (my eyes rather than a software problem), was it in the OTRS queue? I'm not an OTRS agent, but I think the intention is that I will be at some point.
If we have an email address, someone from the office could drop him a line.

Hello Mike & others,
Each month a newsletter is send out about what activities and projects were active in the past month in relationship to GLAM (Galleries, Libraries, Archives, and Museums). The newsletter is called 'This Month in GLAM' and is send out on various ways to the Wikimedia community, enthousiasts and more. It is good to tell our own Wikimedia community and the public what activities we do regarding GLAM, as this may help other institutions participate in projects with Wikimedia and for volunteers to help out. For the newsletter about the past month the UK is missing, you mentioned in the e-mail something interesting. Is it possible that you write about it for the newsletter? Or do you know who I can ask to write about it? Thanks! (Deadline of the April edition is 8 May 18:00 UTC, I know it is short term but I hope something is possible.) You can start writing at the page http://outreach.wikimedia.org/wiki/GLAM/Newsletter/Newsroom. If you wish to be informed by e-mail next time, please write me.
Greetings,
Romaine

Congratulations, Andy.
Just to avoid any potential misunderstandings here, can I point out that this isn't a WMUK-supported WiR position, i.e. WMUK hasn't been involved in establishing or running this WiR position, and there's no contract between WMUK and the institution (as there is e.g. with TWAM and the Science Museum using an agreement like that at http://uk.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Example_WiR_agreement.pdf ). This is something that Andy

@Doug (W): sorry, I usually sign myself as Rexx on this list to avoid confusion, but I believe I forgot to this time.
@Richard (New): Romaine is a GLAM volunteer from WMNL who speaks good English and subscribes to the "Wikimedia & GLAM collaboration [Public]" list, which Mike cc'd his post to. It is most likely that Romaine saw Mike's message on the WM GLAM list but replied to our WMUK-L list. Not being a member, the software held up Romaine's post until somebody released it six days later (after the deadline had passed to which it referred). I was merely commenting that such delays were unfortunate and hoping that we could avoid them in future.
