They've got some nice stuff. The http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Railton_Special and the http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Smethwick_Engine for example. Their stuff on steel cut jewelry would be useful for filling in some of the gaps on wikipedia.

Has some of the most horrific lighting I've ever run across. Triceratops skull was nice though. Could you see if they've updated the lable on the map cowry/map cowrie which refereed to it as "Cyprea mappa" this appears to be a misspelling of ""Cypraea mappa" which in any case appears to have been replaced by "Leporicypraea mappa"? -- geni ___ Wikimedia UK mailing list wikimediau...@wikimedia.org http://mail.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikimediauk-l WMUK: https://wikimedia.org.uk
Re: [Wikimediauk-l] Wikipedian in Residence, Thinktank, Birmingham
Andy, Sounds like another interesting role. Is there a relationship between Thinktank and At-Bristol (see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/At-Bristol )? Would it be an opportunity to encourage them to consider to go down a similar road?
