Outcomes

Item 1: Update from previous meeting – Neville informed the team that WCM has now officially applied for recognition as a Wiki User Group. A WCM Meta-Wiki page was created. Once a formal reply from the Wikimedia Foundation is received, Neville will update the team accordingly. A public announcment will also be made through local media, as well as WCM’s social media pages.

Item 2: Mediawiki discussion – Nothing to report.

Item 3: Plan of action for 2016 – Wiki Loves Monuments – Following discussions with staff of Fondazzjoni Kreattivita’, Neville will be contacting the Turkish Embassy to explore the possibility of collaborating with them on a project related to the Turkish Cemetery. A shortlist of indicative sites will be drawn up – these sites will allow participants to understand what type of sites they can photograph, without restricting them to these sites.

Item 4: Accounts & Administration – Nothing to report.

Item 5: Other matters – Neville updated the team about his visit to San Sebastian and participation in Donostiapedia. Neville will be creating a page related to this on the WCM wiki.
