[Wikiquote-l] Fwd: [Foundation-l] Rethinking brands

Forwarded as thought-food ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Florence Devouard <Anthere9(a)yahoo.com> Date: May 10, 2007 3:09 AM Subject: Re: [Foundation-l] Rethinking brands To: foundation-l(a)lists.wikimedia.org Just a thought... There is this press release currently pending: http://en.wikiquote.org/wiki/Wikiquote:Press_releases/May_2007 I just realised there were no links to the other projects (it should). But aside from this... when a famous politician (for example) make a big speech, and get quoted everywhere for a really buzz sentence, could we somehow generate some attention for wikiquote and wikinews ? I do not think we could make a press release for this but... Another example. Let us say there is a presidential election... thanks to the election, Wikimedia France collected a huge amount of pictures from all the candidates. Now, let us say that immediately after the elections, Wikimedia France publishes a press release to announce that 1) we collected huge amounts of images during and immediately after the elections 2) and that we have a fabulous set of information about the new president - a biography: http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nicolas_Sarkozy - pictures: http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Nicolas_Sarkozy?uselang=fr - quotes: http://fr.wikiquote.org/wiki/Nicolas_Sarkozy - last news about the elections: http://fr.wikinews.org/wiki/Résultats_provisoires_du_second_tour_de_l%27éle… - even neologisme from Sarkozy name: http://fr.wiktionary.org/wiki/sarkozyste ant _______________________________________________ foundation-l mailing list foundation-l(a)lists.wikimedia.org http://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/foundation-l -- KIZU Naoko Wikiquote: http://wikiquote.org * habent enim emolumentum in labore suo *
