This document summarizes a presentation given by Wikimedia UK on using Wikipedia as part of a public relations strategy. It discusses Wikipedia's scale and goals of supporting free knowledge. Key aspects covered include building a Wikipedia strategy by providing free basic content, understanding the "gift economy" model of open content, and addressing potential issues like correcting errors or adding content to an existing client page. Quality, industry concerns, and remembering Wikipedia is an encyclopedia were also briefly mentioned.

Open access (OA) to scholarly literature recently hit a major milestone: Half of all research articles published become open access, either immediately or after an embargo period. Are the articles you read among them? What about the articles you write? Are the journals to which you submit open-access friendly? What about the journals for which you peer review? Are there any reasons why the public should not have access to the results of taxpayer-funded research?
In this slideshow, Jill Cirasella (Associate Librarian for Public Services and Scholarly Communication, Graduate Center, CUNY) explains the motivation for OA, describes the details of OA, and differentiates between publishing in open access journals (“gold” OA) and self-archiving works in OA repositories (“green” OA). She also dispels persistent myths about OA and examines some of the challenges to OA.
This deck is a training presentation for the 2017 IA Summit session on editing wikipedia. The session was a working edit-a-thon and the deck was presented as a guide for attendees to access as needed. Slide 2 of this deck has links to the event dashboard and a list of diversity groups at Wikipedia. I also gave a talk at this conference on diversity and inclusion programs at Wikipedia and referenced a number of active user groups related to supporting diversity in Wikipedia. Attendees at the edit-a-thon were encouraged to either work on information architecture related content selected in the event dashboard, or a diversity project of their choice. Much of the content in this deck is from the Art + Feminism training guide.

Open Access at the Coal Face - Attitudes and Practical Responses (DARTS4)Yvonne Budden
Open Access is, arguably, one of the most disruptive changes to the scholarly communications environment since the invention of the internet. Staff in academic and research libraries have been facilitating this change and educating researchers about it since the first institutional repository was launched in 2000. But the pace of change has accelerated exponentially with the strengthening of the RCUK and Wellcome Trust mandates and the introduction of the HEFCE mandate among other funder moves in this area.
This talk will focus on the practical responses taken by the University of Warwick to cope with this change in all areas across the institution and the demands that this has placed on Library staff. It will focus on the Library perspective but also cover work done by the Research Office as well as the Graduate School and Student, Careers and Skills as part of a cross-institutional response. It will examine the practical challenges that we have faced in dealing with the new policies and some of the developments we have made to our institutional repository, WRAP (http://wrap.warwick.ac.uk) to support researchers wanting the advantages of open access. Additionally it will cover new areas of activity that have been undertaken by Library staff and offer a few of our ‘lessons learnt’ as well as a few future plans.
Finally the talk will discuss some of the early results from an institution wide survey of our researchers on their understanding of open access and attitudes to the process. This survey is an expansion of a survey that we ran in 2011 and the results will show whether or not the rapid changes and stronger funder mandates are really helping to win the hearts and minds of our researchers.

This is a combination of the tasks outline in the Week 1 and Week 2 wikis. It explains what the Web 2.0 Technology of wikis in the form of Wikipedia.org (and related websites run by the WikiMedia foundation), as well as instructions on how to use them and the behaviour expected.

Talk on "Dissecting Wikipedia" given at CRASSH, Cambridge, on 6th March 2013.
Abstract:
Andrew Gray, the British Library's Wikipedian in Residence, has been working on an AHRC-supported program to help more academics and researchers engage with Wikipedia. In this talk, he will give a brief history of the Wikipedia project, looking at its origins and the way it has developed over time. The talk will also cover the growing amount of research done around Wikipedia itself. Well over 2,000 peer-reviewed papers have been published which looked at Wikipedia in some way - looking at the project's content and community, or using this data as a way to study broader questions of collaboration and interaction.

30. Quality Nature chose articles from Encyclopaedia Britannica and Wikipedia Wide range of topics and sent them to what it called "relevant" field experts for peer review. The experts then compared the competing articles--one from each site on a given topic--side by side, but were not told which article came from which site. It averaged out to 2.92 mistakes per article for Britannica and 3.86 for Wikipedia. Read more: http://news.cnet.com/Study-Wikipedia-as-accurate-as-Britannica/2100-1038_3-5997332.html#ixzz11UwVP3SC
