Thanks Fae, If this does come off and you have a residue of awkward to categorise ones I might be available to sort them out if you can get them in a separate temporary category. I helped WMIE with Wiki Loves monuments last year and have nearly finshed the English residue of this years Wiki Loves

Re: [Wikimediauk-l] Could Wikimedia UK keep an eye on which museums are going to close and give us the heads up?

Such a shame when museums close. Staff here can certainly keep an eye out for these kinds of closures and let you know via this mailing list - and great if others on this list could do the same when/if you hear of imminent closures. Cheers, Lucy On 12 October 2016 at 17:06, Michael Peel

Re: [Wikimediauk-l] Mass image uploads expert

Fæ would be my first suggestion for a mass upload if he is available and the collection is suitable. But reading through that link I'm not sure we can use that collection. Apparently it was started forty years ago by a curator who invited people to bring in historic photos and lend them to the

Hi all, I have just spotted an announcement of a historic photograph digitisation project by the friends of the Somerset Life Museum Research Group (see https://somersetrurallifemuseum.org.uk/2016/10/13/digitisation-project/ ) aiming to digitise 15,000 images. I have made an initial
