Thanks much Rute, this is absolutely on point and a great addition. I would
encourage folks to add more in this area.
We know ourselves that GLAM is much more than those four types of
institutions, and includes educational institutions, aquariums, music
institutions, arboretums, scientific institutions, et al. But it would be
good to note this in the document.
Thanks to Amanda for adding some of this already:

I have been thinking for some time about how we might better generalize
GLAM as "public interest knowledge institutions" which would result in the
very odd acronym PIKIWIKI :)
Susanna Ånäs has also re-contextualized GLAM as Global Languages Art and
Memory, which I also like.

Hi,
I understand that most WiRs are in GLAM contexts, but it would be great if
we could add some parts that go beyond this scope. I am mainly thinking
about the fact that a WiR can be in a variety of institutions. Personally,
as a newcomer in a different type of institution (university), it has been
particularly challenging to navigate these waters as these two parts (WiR
and GLAM) often overlap, but the GLAM focus doesn't necessarily answer to
all needs.
I haven't changed the Meta page, as I don't really have anything more
specific to add, but thought this could be valuable.
Wishing you all a lovely day/night/long weekend. :)
Cheers,
Rute Correia

Hi all, good conversation!
Rachel and Z, I think we're on the same page. I think any specific
efforts are good to put down in order to highlight or illustrate any of the
MCDC themes. Their charge to "Feel free to refer to specific initiatives,
recommendations or principles" allows us to be quite specific.
I also see this as a useful exercise for ourselves. It helps us document
how our work has fit into these large strategic goals. We can also cut it
down if need be, as Z said.
I added some more details in the second section, but please add more!

I think individual activities are a bit too
specific, but if it is a
project or program worth documenting that links to any of the strategy
implementations that should be good. Anyway - it is easier to edit and cut
down if too specific, then the opposite ;-)

How specific do we want to be? I could link to
some of my work, like
the guide to creating book pages I wrote, or a popular image that I
uploaded a higher-resolution version of, but I’m not sure if that’s what
we’re going for.

Hi all, regarding the Wikimedia Summit, regardless of who we send, we
will need to fill out the application form. So I've started a wiki page so
we can collaborate on the answers. I've started it here but please do add
and edit! I have a feeling we are already over-performing in being
relevant to the strategy process, but why not document it all, not only for
them, but for us as well? :) Please edit!

I made a few edits but it would be good to have at least a few other
people from other contexts to join in and form a bigger spectrum of
contributions and contributors, otherwise we just render like a low
capacity 1,1 man show ;-)
