Before Wikimedia UK starts with a project, it ideally needs to be proposed. This is a fairy easy process, and just involves setting down the idea and the resources it will need. Please add new proposals as a section below. You should have a number of subsections as shown by the template.
Prior to 7 April 2009, there is the opportunity for funding from the Wikimedia Foundation.
A lot of projects were proposed for Wikipedia UK v1: m:Wikimedia UK v1.0/Possible projects.

London Loves Art - Wikipedia Loves Art
Outline
Along the lines of the Wikipedia Loves Art project, in February 2010, bring together eight museums which will have one event one each weekend day in February. The V&A and the London Transport Museum have expressed an interest in being involved.
Benefits
It benefits the projects - especially Wikipedia - as it generates photos that can be used.
Financial requirements
Not much - prizes Could be sponsored as per Wikipedia Loves Art
Volunteering
Organisers (two? - one Board, one non-Board? User:AndrewRT was original proposer.) Participants to take photos, process, upload, use (as many as possible)
Discussion
We could try to generalise things a bit more - e.g. go a bit more sciency and get the Science Museum and/or Natural History Museum involved, or have an additional focus on architecture. Mike Peel 22:43, 9 March 2009 (UTC)
