Dear Wikisourcerors, I'm planning to go to Wikimania and submit a speech, which goes like: *Wikisource: what we've done, what we could do better* (or "What we got right, what we'd get better") http://wikimania2012.wikimedia.org/wiki/Submissions/Wikisource:_what_we%27ve...
Anyway, the idea is very simple: 1. We need to talk about Wikisource at Wikimania. Period. 2. I'd like to speak about the things Wikisource is good at, and the good framework we developed over the years (eg. the Proofread extension) Nonetheless, Wikisources suffers significant flaws, as a proper metadata system (Dublin Core metadata, OAI-MPH complaint system), which prevents us to collaborate with other projects, as Europeana, or other digital libraries.
Now, I'm writing you to ask you if such a panel/workshop would be interesting, and to ask you if it would be better, with your help, to create a panel in which some of us describe the best aspects and features of their Wikisource.
Let me know if any of you could be interested in this.
Aubrey
PS: Cristian Consonni, my fellow board member in Wikimedia Italy, has proposed a presentation about a reCAPTCHA for Wikisource: http://wikimania2012.wikimedia.org/wiki/Submissions/Wikicaptcha:_a_ReCAPTCHA...
