Re: [Wikimediauk-l] Student societies 2013 campaign

[Harry Burt]

I emailed the WMF's trademark people just to confirm that naming a society
the "[NAME] Wiki[mp]edia Society" did not require approval. Their response
was that it may: a hurdle, if not a large one. Usefully, then, WMUK could
seek some clarification in this area, just to keep the burden on volunteers
down.

Just a thought.

[Wikimediauk-l] Student societies 2013 campaign

[Toni Sant]

As many subscriber to this mailing list will already know, Wikimedia UK is
keen to support student
societiestowards a
better understanding and improvement of Wikipedia and its sister
projects. We are currently looking for a volunteer to help me develop a
strategic plan we've drafted for reaching out to university student unions
across the UK. This work relates to WMUK's developing efforts to support
Student Societies focused on editing Wikipedia and other Wikimedia
projects; it essentially involves an intensive period of concentrated
effort to reach out to potential new student societies. Details available
at http://uk.wikimedia.org/wiki/Student_societies_2013_campaign_volunteer

Many thanks,

Toni
