Just wanted to say thank you and well done to everyone involved - all the volunteers and in particular Roberta and Mary for doing such a great job organising. I never thought we'd be over capacity for a session reading out Wikipedia articles! :) The Land (talk) 22:57, 26 November 2014 (GMT)
Listen to Wikipedia handout
A very good evening! One point of feedback from me: once the display was running fullscreen, it wasn't obvious that we were showing a publicly-accessible web page in an ordinary browser window. Several visitors assumed we were running some special app that needed authorisation. I think the handout should include the web address. -- John of Reading (talk) 08:18, 27 November 2014 (GMT)
