Hello everyone,
The DCMS is conducting a consultation on e-learning in libraries. The
consultation period closes on Tuesday 6 November at 5pm.
It would be great if we could work together to come up with a response to
the consultation.
I've created a page on the UK wiki which gives some more details and lists
the themes that the consultation is interested in. Please do get involved
at http://uk.wikimedia.org/wiki/DCMS_consultation_on_e-lending_in_libraries
If contributions could be made and a final response reached by 3.30pm on
Tuesday 6 November that allows us time to make a final submission.
Thank you for your help.
Stevie

Does anyone know why the main page

Hi I just wanted to check the background of the Comet Group on
wikipedia. I'm on my mobile and can't edit it, but there are a few
issues regarding grammar and a few issues regarding the company
entering administration. I do realise that this list is for foundation
business, but if anybody has ten minutes to spare on a they up, It
would be much appreciated.

Hi all,
I'm running a series of "introduction to Wikipedia" workshops next
week in Edinburgh (two at Edinburgh University, two at NLS). Three
look to be going smoothly, but one of them, on Thursday 8th at the
university, is proving a bit of a problem - it's got fifteen or so
participants, which is a bit many for me to handle on my own. I've
approached a couple of people I was hoping might be able to help, but
without much success - one has just confirmed they can't make it, and
the other has had to pull out.
Is anyone in the Edinburgh area able and willing to come over for a
few hours in the afternoon to help out? I can offer gratitude and a
good meal afterwards, and it's quite good fun - no particular
experience required, just a willingness to answer questions about
Wikipedia (in both theory and practice).
Thanks,

Hello everyone,
Work has begun on pulling together Wikimedia UK's monthly report for
October 2012.
If you were involved in any activity on behalf of WMUK in October please do
contribute to the report. You can find it at
http://uk.wikimedia.org/wiki/Reports/2012/October
Ideally I'd like to publish the final report by 16 November, ahead of our
next Board meeting, so contributions before then would be especially
appreciated.
Thanks and regards,
Stevie
