Hi,
I have just visited several Wikiversities in preparation of my presentation
of this project on Wikimania:
http://wikimania2011.wikimedia.org/wiki/Submissions/From_the_Wikiversity_co…
I red recent core discussions on cs, en, es, it, pt and ru and I am
wondering how different approaches in fullfilling our missions are. Now it
realy seems to me that Wikiversity is in fact researching e-learning in
MediaWiki software. And because of the different approaches and different
understandigs there might be multiple results.
Let me give you here a teaser:
*pt, ru and es are based on brick and mortar school units (i.e. elementary
schools, departments, institutes and so on)
**from a realy interesting discussion on pt, I have find out that it for
people who will come up to these units in the future and who create
educationa materials arround themseves
http://pt.wikiversity.org/wiki/Wikiversidade:Esplanada#Perfil_da_Wikiversid…
*en and cs was open to deploy all of what contributers deployed. Nothing was
deleted and sometimes this was causing problems not just within the
Wikimedia community, but also at cs.wv. These languages are trying to sort
this content recently, trying to put an order in to chaos, by type:
http://en.wikiversity.org/wiki/Help:Resources_by_type
*recently on cs and ru, its some users were trying to have just live
educational courses. The other stuff to mute or delete.
And others different approaches. So do not forget guys, there are also other
Wikiversities, which are not copying en.wv
Regards,
Juan
I'm hoping that people in the Wikiversity community/network might be
interested in making a comment, suggestion, or recommendation to people at
the University of Canberra (Australia) in relation to their project to
increase access to learning? Given that UC has a number of its staff and
students using en.Wikiversity, it would be nice to hear back from the
community.. see message below:
I'm part of a small group of people at the University of Canberra, tasked

> write them into the wiki directly<http://en.wikiversity.org/wiki/Greater_Access_Choice_and_Flexibility:_Learn…>

Sorry Juan, more a reply for wider list. Would be nice to get your thoughts
on what we've mentioned so far.. Especially what might be key points of
difference, and they idea of using wikiversity as a platform for research
and peer review a bit like wikinews. Not a new idea, just revived and
developing.

*Call for referendum*: The Wikimedia Foundation, at the direction of
the Board of Trustees, will be holding a vote to determine whether
members of the community support the creation and usage of an opt-in
personal image filter, which would allow readers to voluntarily screen
particular types of images strictly for their own account.
Further details and educational materials will be available shortly.
The referendum is scheduled for 12-27 August, 2011, and will be
conducted on servers hosted by a neutral third party. Referendum
details, officials, voting requirements, and supporting materials will
be posted at http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Image_filter_referendum
shortly.
For the coordinating committee,
Philippe (WMF)
