Mailing List

Based on some conversations during the wikimarathon, a mailing list has been started to continue brainstorming, discussion, and work on the project http://lists.socialarchitecture.org/listinfo.cgi/artwiki-socialarchitecture.org

What/Why

There's a lack of art/artist info on Wikipedia, and we're often too busy to find the time to contribute. So, we're setting aside one day where a crew of people collectively drop serious knowledge into wikipedia about art. From your favorite notable artwork, artist or exhibition, to our soon-to-be-famous peers. We'll also add structural links to alumni schools and categories like collective art groups, non profit orgs, etc.<br>

The day is Saturday April 26th: an afternoon on the internet quietly enriching the public domain. We imagine groups of 2-4 people around tables across the country, bottomless coffee cups fueling the discussions, fact checking, and troubleshooting. Ideally lots of “oh, that person worked with X, I'll make a page for them, link me up.” There will also be a lot of online chatting across coasts. Video chats if bandwidth permits.
