summary:
Organize and produce media to inform potential movement partner organizations how and why to license content for Wikimedia. Distribute the media to relevant organizations.
2013 round 1
Project idea edit
The Wikimedia movement is at the forefront of copyleft, open access, and creative collaborations. The success of the movement depends on access to as much of humanity's produced historical, artistic, and technology data as possible. This proposal's main focus is scaling outreach to institutions whose mission overlaps with Wikimedia's but may need more information and motivation to take the next step to sharing their content in a compatible format and license.
Project goals edit
- Springboard GLAM efforts to scale across thousands rather than tens of institutions
- Develop professionally produced multimedia to introduce content gatekeepers to the concept of open access and the benefits of the creative commons license specifically
- Publish case studies of past successful partnerships
- Connect WP:Outreach with WP:GLAM with Open Knowledge consultants
