The only thing I can think of is the fembot/femtech
programs that have
women editing in a myriad of things - education programs, events etc but
its not a formal thing. Myself, Adrianne and Alex have been involved but
again its not "formal"
The Europeana fashion is sort what you are going for...or Wikimedia UK
with their relationship with the Royal society...but it's more seasonal
than ongoing...
I'd love to see more formalized things.

Not really a Wikipedian in Residence project - more like a long-term
commitment and project in which several activities take place over a longer
time, with maybe several Wikipedia volunteers involved.
Perhaps Europeana Fashion comes close??

Many of us collaborate with organizations and groups - often the
same..to do this
kind of stuff but not many people have sat in a role and
did consistent programming...yet.

Hi everyone,
(This is still in the making, so no solid promises or plans yet.)
In the Netherlands a small group of representatives of organisations
that deal
with women’s history is seriously brainstorming about a
longer-term project to represent the Dutch women’s history better on
Wikipedia. Together with a few other Dutch Wikipedians, I’m brainstorming
together with them (and will probably help them during the actual process
when the project takes off).
At this moment, our plan is to narrow our focus to the subject of Dutch
second-wave feminism and to ‘recruit’ university docents to do
Wikipedia-oriented courses with students. We hope that a few enthusiastic
university teachers will teach a term course on second-wave feminism
(probably one term of the 2015-16 academic year), and that students will be
asked to write or improve Wikipedia articles as an assignment.
My question to this list is the following:
The organisations’ representatives are curious whether there are any
earlier,
similar projects that we can refer to, and learn from. Are there?
I mean: projects in which local Wikipedians have
worked together with
local feminist organisations, or women’s history
organisations, in order to
structurally improve content on Wikipedia.
I did a bit of searching around on the various
Gender Gap project pages
(I admit: superficially) but couldn’t find any so far. I’m
aware of the
Art+Feminism edit-a-thons.
In any case - all suggestions and tips are very welcome.
Many thanks! Sandra (User:Spinster)
