Wikipedia’sBritish Museum project created
100 Articles ... So what?
In 2010 Wikipedia and the British Museum collaborated and made 100 new articles. But, can Wikimedia change something?
Derby Museums and Wikimedia UK have been working together since January. They
have organised a Wikipedia event and experimented with using QR codes for
labelling artefacts. As a result of the collaboration Bamkin and Eden have
designed Qrpedia.org which allow multi lingual access to exhibits. The Wright
challenge has created 450 multilingual wiki articles in the last 8 weeks. This finishes in September. This has changed the way the
museum operates and creates a more open museum

Why do museums write labels?
Because ...
They like doing it, its “their job”
Its very tricky...We could use QR Codes but
they won’t lets us try

Amazon Book Review
I'm very emotional about this. The June Tabor version of the song "The King of Rome" made its way onto my personal Desert Island Discs some years ago. I even had it sung for me by Joan as a birthday request at a concert. I got lost in a blizzard back country skiing in the wilds of Norway once and found myself singing this loudly to myself for hours until I found my way home. I think the navigation/homing connection was lost on me at the time. It only dawned later.
Cut to many years later. I am at a conference listening to someone talk about Wikipedia, and how museums can use it to give virtual access to exhibits they have no room to display. His presentation slide was...the Wikipedia page on The King of Rome! And do you know? All that time I'd known and loved the song, it had never dawned on me that it was based on a true story. I must be pretty dull, but the discovery hit me like a brick!
I found this book from a link on the Wikipedia article. I ordered it immediately, sight unseen. And when it arrived, I was captivated. Hans Saefkow's artwork is a bit like that of Raymond Briggs, but the whole thing was just like the video that has been playing in my head all these years. I would love to see this turned into a short piece of animation. It would propel the song and the book right up there where it belongs. If there any copies of this left, buy one
Thank you Dave,
Hans, Joan and
Andy. You have
brought me
much joy.

Dealing With Other Languages
25% - 50% of visitors to UK museums are foreigners*
Not every museum is in the UK
English is not the “most important” language on
Wikipedia.
QR Code usage has risen by 1200% in a year in UK
42.5% of users on internet use Wikipedia
