Hey friends, anyone using miraheze.org and/or suggesting it to
projects that are out of scope of Wikimedia or need more content
licencing options?

Hi all,
This would seem to be very relevant to all Wikimedians in residence or
anyone in a compensated role: the WMF is putting out a new COI policy
update. They are looking for feedback in the next 3 weeks.

I haven't looked at it yet very deeply, but this thread might be a good
place for discussion on anything we might find interesting. Thanks.

FYI,
Today Creative Commons is hosting a new series of revamped Open GLAM
Platform calls. If folks in WREN are interested, I'm providing the call
details below as it's rather obscure and hard to find. Ideally, you'd sign
up long term on their email and Slack list:
https://network.creativecommons.org/cc-openglam-platform/
Joining info below. Hope to see some of you there.

Hello all,
A gentle reminder to share that we will resume our CC Open GLAM Platform
Calls on a monthly basis. Therefore, we are pleased to propose the first
call on October, 21 2021 at 5 pm CEST - 3 pm UTC (Check Time and Date
<https://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/meetingtime.html?iso=20211021&p1=1314>
to find out what time that is in your part of the world).
Here is the Google Meet link to our call: meet.google.com/tei-nxwg-pnm
We will invite all members of the list via a calendar invitation.
We hope that this call will provide new opportunities to discuss emerging
issues in Open GLAM and to reflect on how we as a community can engage with
each other.
We have prepared an agenda
<https://docs.google.com/document/d/1Uf7gV8u6viF6IVnAj0S09XByzpQbPKFlAHJDNLC…>
and invite you to propose agenda items if you wish.
We look forward to hearing from you and to seeing you on October 21!
Kind regards,
Camille

Sorry, folks, that’s 4am in New Zealand. I would love to catch the meeting one day, and I’ve just finished a small WiR project with NZ Opera and we’re planning a project grant proposal so I would like feedback.

Hi all,
I was wondering if WREN wanted to officially submit a session idea for the
Wikimania online conference this year (August 13-17).
The submissions are a bit different in that you can submit as affiliates or
individuals and it's all "closed" on its own system. I jotted down a bunch
of GLAM ideas here on this Chat page, in case people wanted to look at the
ideas or if WREN wanted to "claim" one of the focus areas:
https://wikimania.wikimedia.org/wiki/2021:Submissions/Chat#GLAM
IDEAS:
I could see WREN wanting to host #1 (State of GLAM Wiki) since there is no
official "GLAM" user group and WREN is perhaps the only steward of this
wide space that is an affiliate.
Another option is #3 (Tools and tech) since we have had a lot of discussion
in WREN calls of best practices and tool sharing.
Feel free to discuss on this list or on that wiki page.
-Andrew

Hello fellow WiRs
I am doing a tiny online series on
Wikipedia@20 years (and Creative Commons)
for Multimedia Institute also 20+ (that started CC in Croatia)
and would love to have a 60-90sec video statements
(ideally in .mp4 as early as possible, before March 10th)
on how GLAMers/WiRs see the past 20 + coming 10 years.
Croatian Wikipedia had not much to celebrate for a decade
but as of yesterday another 3 right wing admins are voted out
and we will hopefully have an inviting and supportive atmosphere.
This program is set to inform and inspire folks to *(re)join.
Denny Vrandečić and Alek Tarkowski committed to the program.
