Volunteers

  • Seddon (talk) 20:45, 8 April 2012 (UTC)
  • --Filceolaire (talk) 07:08, 6 April 2012 (UTC) General help on line before hand and at the event (assuming I can get holiday on the friday).
  • Andy Mabbett (Pigsonthewing) - happy to facilitate lightning talks and unconference.
  • Mike Peel (talk) 18:48, 19 July 2012 (UTC)
  • Robin Owain Enter the Dragon...
  • (Jenna) - keen to support the organisation of the social events and the vox-pops during the sessions and tea breaks.
  • Netha Hussain - general help online, promotion on social media, blogging. --Netha Hussain (talk) 07:21, 8 January 2013 (UTC)
  • WereSpielChequers - some help but could be time limited.
  • Dieyna - able to help on the day (cloakroom, registration, etc). Contact Daria Cybulska.
  • Gordo (talk) - possibly running an evening walking tour around the BL, straight after close on either Friday or Saturday. Contact Daria/Stevie.
  • Julia Duggleby - help on Saturday/Sunday. Contact Daria.
  • Liz Perry - help on Saturday/Sunday. Contact Daria.
  • (talk) Happy to help in any suitable way, including standing in at the last minute on a panel or to help as MC or host. We may have an EGM in parallel at some point, I would expect this to be short and fall outside of any key time in the GLAM schedule. -- (talk) 12:15, 13 February 2013 (UTC)
    • Would you like to facilitate a session at the Sunday unconference? --CategoryError (talk)

Visualisations

There was a recent comment on twitter about doing some sort of visualisation of GLAM content which read "@openstreetmap data visualisation: http://www.itoworld.com/static/data_visualisations.html via @itoworld Wouldn't that be epic for ‪#GLAMwiki‬ partners?". I am from ITO World and we would love to do something for you. Are the relevant people (or others) able to discuss in more detail what they had in mind here? The tweet did also kick off a parallel discussion on Commons:Commons talk:Geocoding about where to get the data which now seems to be sorted. PeterEastern (talk) 10:50, 16 June 2012 (UTC)

NHM

Would love to see participation from the NHM in this. They have the most globally relevant material in their collections, things that really need to be available outside of UK. en:User:Shyamal

I met them last week, and they're definitely hoping to have someone there. Andrew Gray (talk) 11:02, 18 January 2013 (UTC)

Suggestions of nearby Hotels or Dorms

Hi, do you have any suggestions for affordable hotels or dorms that are close to the venue? - It's always a pleasure to meet fellow Wikimedians already for breakfast! ;-) Beat Estermann (talk) 09:54, 5 March 2013 (UTC)

Suggestions on the main page. Daria Cybulska (WMUK) (talk) 13:50, 8 March 2013 (UTC)

Livestream

Hi, I was just wondering if there'll be any livestreams during GLAM-WIKI 2013? It would be great to have a digital backup (via Google Hangouts for instance). Regards, Peter Weis (talk) 21:00, 5 March 2013 (UTC)

All depends if we can get volunteers able to support - would you be free to do it? Daria Cybulska (WMUK) (talk) 12:22, 12 March 2013 (UTC)

Scholarships

I've just seen the main page section on scholarships. Presumably, for those of us speaking and/ or volunteering at the event, the usual Wikimedia UK expenses policy applies? Andy Mabbett (User:Pigsonthewing); Andy's talk; Andy's edits 21:21, 10 March 2013 (UTC)
