Music project

[edit]

Hi Smallison, I heard about the Canada Music 150 project at Wikimania. Tried to reach out to the Winnipeg person but the link to the U of M is dead and the wiki account's page has not been used in some time. Do you have a rep in Winnipeg for this project? I would be interested in helping out with this. 142.161.44.83 18:05, 4 September 2017 (UTC)Reply

Wikipedia Library User Group is being renamed!

[edit]

Hello! In the past few months, the Wikipedia Library User Group has been undergoing some major planning and developments. We just finished our very first open call with the user group members, which was a great success (see the meeting minutes). If you joined us during the meeting, we’d like to thank you for your interest. If not, not to worry, we have lots of things planned for the user group in which you can participate.

This message is to inform you that based on the input received from the user group members and the founding members, it was agreed that the Wikipedia Library User Group’s name be reconsidered by a voting process. As a valued member of the user group, we’d like to invite you to vote on the list of potential names. You can vote by following this link. The poll will run for a timeframe of two weeks.
