Arnav, brilliant, though I think you should first introduce photographers to the Commons and explain the benefits. Let me know your thoughts, if need be privately, as I'm planning to go forward with a special meet aimed at the photography community myself, in Coimbatore.

Hey everyone,
As Noopur said GLAM and outreach cannot be seperated, +1 to it.
Also wanted to share with you guys that the outreach event and workshop I am organising in February in MS University Baroda, the organizers from the city were amazed to know what Commons is and how wikipedia and other project get images and media from it.
So they have asked me to come up with an event specially targeting photographers. Thus am planning for "Wikipedia takes Baroda" though at much smaller scale than scavenger hunt which has happened in other countries till now.
Please give your inputs on it. And Noopur I ll get in touch with you offline regarding it.
Thanks.

hi,
Well, L could reach WikiSource (old books?), WikiQuotes, Wikictionary (difficult, tho). Better to keep all options open. Also, all the Indic stuff would go on the Indic version of the respective projects. So, a Malayalam wikisource or a Marathi Wikisource other than just English.

Pradeep, thanks. I forgot that the L stood for Libraries. Thanks. According to me. G- Commons, Wikipedia. L- Wikisource. A- Commons, Wikipedia, Wikisource. M- Commons, Wikipedia. Am I right? These are just indicative as to what element of GLAM joins which project.

hi,
Stuff from libraries and archives go onto WikiSource. I read/heard/saw somewhere that they're having a hard time monitoring docs uploaded there. Not sure if it needs monitoring for copyvio etc. So, a WikiSource person or encouraging a WikiSource person to do and learn more would be a welcome addition. warm regards, Pradeep Handheld

Pradeep, my thoughts exactly. The Commons would be the most utilised project due to GLAM, and I think we should ask Yann, who is an admin. Also, I'm curious to what role WikiSource would play here, especially in India.

hi,
GLAM contributions will impact contributions to Wikipedia sister projects like Commons and WikiSource. Would love if people active on these projects would come forward and share how such uploads from GLAM would need to be moderated, etc. Would love to hear more from someone who's onto WikiSource, especially.
warm regards, Pradeep Handheld
