Open English licensure, byline, etc.

I've been reading through all the CC-wiki discussions on the commons' mailing lists, and am coming to believe the CC-wiki license with the Code v2 variations is the most useful license. But I don't know if that would be an acceptable license? It appears to me to be a version of CC-by-sa in which the wiki project itself is what gets the attribution.

The byline item sounds like something we should talk about. My initial reaction was negative, but when I step back and think about it there are some good reasons to include it for an open-community orientation. Would we use a byline-type template to include the author(s) at the top of the article, or possibly a contributing-authors template below the article?

I would envision each country/state-province/city as potentially having a "portal" page. There are many ways portals could be built; using a combination of templates, automated lists, and manually-maintained elements seems to work well enough. One thing I'm hoping to develop at some point is a way to create custom RSS feeds based on the DynamicPageList functionality; it would be nice if (as an example) the Fiji page included an RSS link for Fiji-related articles. - Amgine 6 July 2005 18:44 (UTC)

Queering Wikipedia 2023 conference

Wikimedia LGBT+ User Group and the organizing team of Queering Wikipedia is delivering the Queering Wikipedia 2023 Conference for LGBT+ Wikimedians and allies, as a hybrid, bilingual and trans-local event. It is online on 12, 14 and 17 May, the International Day Against Homophobia, Biphobia and Transphobia #IDAHOBIT, with offline events at around 10 locations on 5 continents in the 5-day span as QW2023 Nodes.

The online program is delivered as a series of keynotes, panels, presentations, workshops, lightning talks and creative interventions, starting on Friday noon (UTC) with the first keynote of Dr Nishant Shah entitled: I spy, with my little AI — Wikiway as a means to disrupt the ‘dirty queer’ impulses of emergent AI platforms. Second keynote is at Sunday’s closure by Esra’a Al Shafei, Wikimedia Foundation’s Board of Trustees vice chair, entitled: Digital Public Spaces for Queer Communities.

If you have been an active Wikimedian or enthusiast, supporting LGBT+ activities or if you identify as part of the larger LGBT+ community and allies in Wikimedia, please join us in advancing this thematic work. We encourage you to join online or in person with fellow Wikimedians if it is easy and safe to do so. Our working languages are English and Spanish, with possible local language support at sites of Nodes.

Registration for the online event is free and is open until Wednesday May 10th at 18:00 UTC, for safety protocol. Late event registration approval and event access denial is at the discretion of organizers.

More information, and registration details, may be found on Meta at QW2023
