Hi everyone, Is anyone experienced in Commons mass-uploading and interested in a small job? I know an organization that wants to upload a few hundred images to Wikimedia Commons with rich metadata. The images will be ready sometime over the next few months. They would like to hire someone to do the uploading. Please contact me if you're interested. Cheers, Su-Laine (user:Clayoquot)

Some other WREN folks who I know will be there in other capacities - Tochi Precious, Richard Knipel, Florence Devouard, and Mike Dickison. If there are thoughts from anyone on Strategy 2030 and what we do, please let me know, or feel free to use the email list. Also, last call for newsletter items! They are publishing very soon.

Unable to attend or curious to know more now, please visit our Meta page <https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/View_it!_Tool> and sign up for updates (or beta testing) or email Jamie Flood (jamie.flood2(a)gmail.com View it! is a tool that will show Wikipedia users (editors and hopefully readers, too) relevant Wikimedia Commons media depicting - or otherwise related to - the article they are viewing. The number of images displayed in a Wikipedia article is finite and highly curated by editors; through View it! users will have access to the full catalog of images available on Wikimedia Commons. View it! will increase discoverability of Wikimedia Commons uploads and encourage contributors to utilize Commons and structured data <https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Structured_data>. Please join Dominic Byrd-McDevitt (User:Dominic <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Dominic>), Kevin Payravi ( User:SuperHamster <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:SuperHamster>), and Jamie Flood (User:JamieF <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:JamieF>) to share more about the vision for View it! and have a community conversation about functionality of the tool and suggestions for structured data to be utilized.
