Dear all,
Here's<https://blog.wikimedia.org/2012/07/24/chronicling-the-crafts-indias-first-g…>a
blog post cum report on India's first GLAM initiative at the National
Crafts Museum! The program started out in English but was taken forward in
Hindi to suit the staff members who have been enthusiastically creating
articles and editing in Hindi Wikipedia! The program has been a bold step
to prove that GLAM can very well happen in India - with its own design and
structure and it has also given the Hindi community a precious gift of 6
new editors.
A special thanks to User: Roboture who has been with us in each and every
meet and helped train editors, User:Yann for his first set of invaluable
Commons contributions and to User:Aniruddhajnu and User:Siddharatha_ghai
for coming down to the museum to inspire the staff members.
Hope this gives more courage to any community that wants to start a similar
project! Would love to provide any help needed.
Thank you,
Regards

Dear all,
I am delighted to give you a small summary of the Tag and assess drive that
was conducted by members of WP:India by means of a blog post.
Here<https://blog.wikimedia.org/2012/07/20/english-wikipedias-biggest-ever-india…>it
is. As you can read in it, organizers and participants alike,
unequivocally agree it is an unprecedented achievement for members of our
community!
Thanks to all of you for sparing precious time to give your inputs.
Personally, it was also inspiring getting to know editors outside the
mailing list. May I take this opportunity to propose a bigger project or a
new collaboration like this one? Just starting a conversation :)
Thank you,
Best,
Noopur

Subject: [GLAM-US] David Ferriero's Wikimania speech
To: "Wikimedia & GLAM collaboration [Public]" <glam(a)lists.wikimedia.org>,
glam-us(a)lists.wikimedia.org
The Wikimania people were nice enough to prioritize the editing of David
Ferriero's closing plenary speech at Wikimania so that he could embed it in
his blog post which was published today. As a result, it's actually the
only official video from Wikimania available yet! See:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=47pEcmXjt8E (blog
post<http://blogs.archives.gov/aotus/?p=4298>
)
I thought people on this list would be interested to view it, if you didn't
get a chance to see it in person, and also to share and quote from it even
if you did. It's all about putting our GLAM work in the context of ongoing
trends in the cultural sector, and it was well-received by the live
audience (though the cheering is a bit muted in the video). The full text
will go up at archives.gov soon
(here<http://www.archives.gov/about/speeches/ferriero/index.html>
).
Dominic
