Well, maybe I skimmed over this whole proposal and its
thread too much,
but I thought in this thread we're talking about Wikipedians visiting a
library to collect information to beef up some articles. As far as I can
see, they can do this without an approval process. The articles beefed
up this way can still be approved a year later, if the process is in
place by then. It is also still possible to organise another
WikiJamSession a year later.
I agree a WikiJamSession a year earlier just to work on articles
rather than to approve them would be a good idea. It would help with
the planning for the session the following year, and make sure that
for the final print drive, we know what we're doing as we'd have found
out a year earlier how the event went and how it could be improved,
making the final drive to print go more smoothly. A WikiJamSession
this summer might also be a good place to start advertising the drive
to 1.0, which will happening over the course of the next year, and get
people motivated to work on it.
