Re: [Wikimedia-l] Nobel Peace Prize announcement and editathon
Hi Rachel, I'd like to suggest someone in change of WMF communication to write a blog post about this great initiative from Norwegian volunteers. Talk to those taking the lead. :) Such initiative should be highlighted very much, mainly after to see those great Nobel Prizes (different from some years ago). Hopefully I'll try to find some time next October 12, Children's Day in Brazil, to contribute with Malala's article in the Portuguese Wikipedia. I'm trying to spread the word among Open Knowledge Brasil community because we were thinking to do some thing for children and teachers aligned with our mission.

There is a short blog post about the event that went up yesterday, thanks to the speedy turnaround of Astrid and Jon! We reached out to them right after seeing this announcement, and they provided a quick background just a few hours later. http://blog.wikimedia.org/2014/10/09/wikinobel/ I agree that it would be wonderful to have another post with more details about how this all came to together, the event itself, and what the organizers felt were the best learning and outcomes of this new collaboration.

Re: [Wikimedia-l] Nobel Peace Prize announcement and editathon
This is an excellent event idea, congratulations to Wikimedia Norway for organising it. It is also a brilliant example of how Chapters and other groups around the world can take responsability for topics that have particular local relevance to them, and take a leadership role in the worldwide movement in the process. In this case (an announcement of global interest, but made in a particular building in a particular city) it also highlights wikimedia as not just a virtual community, but a physical one, and that the two work in tandem. -Liam / Wittylama -- wittylama.com Peace, love metadata ___ Wikimedia-l mailing list, guidelines at: https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Mailing_lists/Guidelines Wikimedia-l@lists.wikimedia.org Unsubscribe: https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikimedia-l, mailto:wikimedia-l-requ...@lists.wikimedia.org?subject=unsubscribe
