Use of photographs

[edit]

Hi, Sorry it took me a while to reply. In terms of copyright, because the images were taken by a volunteer, you need confirmation from the Museum Manager that there is a legal agreement in place that any work done by the volunteer for the Museum is owned by the Museum including any copyright. Without this confirmation, and without that legal agreement in place, the copyright in the photographs will actually be owned by the volunteer, not the Museum.

There's a number of ways you can get around this issue.

1. Ask the Museum to set up a Flickr page for their institution, load the images and change the copyright licencing for the images. Then you can download the images from Flickr and upload them to wikimedia and fill in the copyright information with no issues. You can use the Wikimedia Commons Upload Wizard and it will be relatively simple. [1]

Because the Museum is uploading the images to Flickr and licensing them they will be asserting that they own the copyright in the images and you can trust that they've sorted out the agreement with the volunteer.

2. I've never successfully done this but there is a process that involves the copyright owner of the images sending a permissions email to Wikimedia commons. Scroll down halfway down this page and see the email template they'll need to send. https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Email_templates

This wikipedia page also gives you a step by step of what you have to explain to the institution. You should load the images into Wikimedia Commons before you send the email draft to the institutional staff member to send onto the permissions address... essentially you should do all the work for the institution and just get them to cut and paste the email content into a new email and send it onto the permissions address... check out the page https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Email_templates and see how far you get.

Playmarket edit-a-thon

[edit]

Thanks for setting aside time to attend the Playmarket edit-a-thon Saturday, 15 August. Since New Zealand was placed back into Level 2/Level 3 status on Wednesday 12 August the social social distancing required means it's not possible for all participants to work at the Playmarket offices. So we are going to do it remotely. I hope you are still able to participate.

The new schedule starts with: 11:00 am NZST: Introduction online at Whereby. Participants will choose articles to work on, and be briefed on resources available and communication during the day.

Performing Arts Aotearoa - Wiki Project – funding success

[edit]

Nice to see you at the meet-up today.

As you know great news. The Wikimedia Foundation gave me the grant for the Performing Arts Aotearoa Wiki-Project. It starts on 17 May 2021 and runs for four months. Thanks for being a volunteer or endorsing it.

Go to the project page for guidance on starting to contribute as an editor. Link: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Pakoire/Performing_Arts_Aotearoa_-_Wiki_Project

I will update this project page regularly plus send out weekly updates. The focus of this grant is on quality content on Wikipedia, Wikimedia Commons and Wikidata. I encourage you to go in-depth and reach out for hints about where to get resources. There is heaps available on-line. Reach out with problems eg. Categories etc

There will be three formal edit-a-thons in Wellington, Auckland and Dunedin. Dates to be confirmed.

You can email me at any time maule.lisa@gmail.com or message me on my talk page.

My focus once the project starts will be on getting resources available for editors from organisations, and educating people in organisations on what Wiki platforms are and how and why they can be engaged. Pakoire (talk) 07:45, 8 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

WikiProject update - Performing Arts Aotearoa

[edit]

The project is now two weeks in and the profile of the project is building in the performing arts communities. Editors have created seven new articles in Wikipedia and 291 new and improved entries in Wikidata. These have been tagged in Wikidata to the project using the property p5008 ‘on focus list of Wikimedia project’ – ‘Performing Arts Aotearoa New Zealand.’

Thank you if you have made a contribution already, there will also be lots of other ways to contribute over the coming three and a half months.

The current focus is the Wellington based festival Kia Mau [2]. This weekend Saturday 5th June there is a takeover of the Wellington Meetup with an edit-a-thon focus to Wikify the festival. Kia Mau is an established festival based in Wellington celebrating and promoting “contemporary Māori, Pasifika and international Indigenous live performance experience.” For more information look at the Wellington Meetup page or the Kia Mau Wikiproject Worksheet. Over the next few days resources will be shared, including stubs and links to information. Focusing on this festival will start to address the bias in Wikipedia that means there is low content on indigenous people, plus there are many women involved. Which means you can also add them to the Women in Red projects #1day1woman, some would fit onto the year-long campaign: Women's rights, and some into the June focus Wiki Loves Pride.

Increasing content on women and indigenous people is part of the Performing Arts Aotearoa Wikiproject.

Participating in the Kia Mau editing can be in person or remotely. You can start this week, join for an hour or more on the day, and follow up afterwards also. Any improvements to Wikipedia, Wikidata and Wikimedia Commons content will make a difference.

Please let me know if you have any tips or questions to help me help you. If you aren't in a position to contribute right now that's ok too - take care.

Many thanks, Lisa Maule / Pakoire (talk) 22:02, 30 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Nomination of Emily McWilliam for deletion

[edit]
A discussion is taking place as to whether the article Emily McWilliam is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.

The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Emily McWilliam until a consensus is reached, and anyone, including you, is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on high-quality evidence and our policies and guidelines.

Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion notice from the top of the article.

scope_creepTalk 23:32, 10 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I'll take a look tonight or tomorrow. Schwede66 03:44, 11 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Ok, I've had a look. The state that the article was in when it was put up for deletion, notability was indeed a bit shaky. It's therefore necessary to strengthen referencing. Given that there are PapersPast references already, I assume that you've had a good look there. I note that in the deletion discussion, another editor has found a detailed write up in Stuff from 2020; that will have to be added to the article and it goes a very long way towards the article meeting WP:GNG. Beyond that, I'd "find a lawyer" to see whether they have access to legal literature where more could be found about the divorce case. The lawyer I'm thinking of is Chocmilk03; maybe she can help. Once you've added to the article, you should cast your own AfD vote. With a little bit more work, I'm sure this can be rescued. What do you think? Schwede66 02:24, 13 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks Schwede66. I will add a reference to the Scoop article. Not sure how to deal with the fact that a detailed article about Emily McWilliam in the Otaki Historical Journal is not viewable on line, it's only in hard copy in the National Library (where I found it) and in the Otaki Museum as far as I'm aware. Should I add more quotes from it? Thanks for the suggestion of a Wikipedian to follow up about the legal case.Noracrentiss (talk) 03:16, 13 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

It's totally irrelevant whether a source is online or not. You could state in your AfD vote how detailed or long that source is; it could add weight to what you have to say. Note it's Stuff (a newspaper), not Scoop (an agency publishing press releases; useless for establishing notability). And BTW, it's always good to get onto this quickly, as subsequent AfD votes may be guided by what early AfD voters have to say. So you don't want to keep your good arguments until most others have voted; editors hardly ever go back to an AfD. Schwede66 03:22, 13 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks again Schwede66. I picked up my mistake about Scoop/Stuff and have added this plus a further reference. I also put a Keep comment.Thanks for your input and insights.
Well, look at that. A little bit more work turned it into a solid enough article that there wasn't even an argument whether or not she's notable. Well done! Schwede66 03:43, 18 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Emily McWilliam

[edit]

Hi @Noracrentiss:. I had to remove the Family Search ref you put back in. It is not a reliable source, so please, do not put it back in. Why do you think I removed it in the first place?

WikiProject update - Performing Arts Aotearoa 20 June

[edit]

Many thanks to all who have contributed so far. There are 28 new Wikipedia articles and over 500 new Wikidata entries. The Kia Mau Festival mini edit-a-thon happened with useful learning for me about what seems simple and what is possible. I am proud of the persistence of editors – a much improved article for Audrey Brown-Pereira for example, a new article for The Māori Sidesteps and lots of links from performance UPU to various poets. And many Wikidata entries.

You can now link to the project page through my website (http://www.lisamaule.info). Easier to remember and google-able (Wikiproject Lisa) if you want to direct other people where to look.

Things to do:

• DEEPEN CONTENT: Have a look at the new articles on the project page: User:Pakoire/Performing Arts Aotearoa - Wiki Project. Many can be expanded including with this resource: Theatre Aotearoa database https://tadb.otago.ac.nz/theatre

• LINKABLE ARTICLES: Create articles for a venue, a company or a festival. This will help facilitate biographies being linked to other articles. Suggestions on project page.

• KEEP GOING with your own area. Let me know what you are up to. See my new research google doc (linked on the project page) – feel free to comment if you need something (ask me for permission to edit)

• IMPROVE ANY ARTICLE on any performing arts topic, theatre, dance, venues – feel free to use my suggestions as a starting point and then going where it takes you. Reach out for suggestions in your area of interest, or ideas for research. I am a subject expert which helps with searching, and now have a pool of academics and others who I can ask too.


Examples of articles to get formatting ideas:

• New Zealand Opera

• Dunedin Writers & Readers Festival

• Bangarra Dance Theatre

• Hugo Weaving

• Tusiata Avia

• Kia Mau Festival

• Circa Theatre

• New Zealand Festival of the Arts

• Raewyn Hill

Very simple stub articles:

• Eagles Theatre

• Camden Fringe


DIARY the three in person edit-a-thons now scheduled 10am - 4pm:

Dunedin Saturday 10 July (location tbc) - topic Allen Hall and contemporary companies in Dunedin

Auckland Saturday 14 August (location tbc) - topic Auckland Women in performing arts

Wellington Saturday 21 August (Nola Millar Library, Te Whaea) - topic Toi Whakaari and New Zealand School of Dance alumni


Many thanks – do what you can (might be nothing, might just be one citation) and take care, Lisa

WikiProject update - Performing Arts Aotearoa 04 August

[edit]

Many thanks to all who have contributed so far. Half way through.

There are two more scheduled edit-a-thons as part of this project:

Please diary and attend in person or remotely if you are able.

Add suggested articles to the project pages or get in touch with me. A Women in Red (WIR) August campaign is Indigenous women and there are heaps on my list so if you create or improve these articles be sure to tag WIR on the talk page. Pakoire (talk) 09:19, 4 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

UPDATE
WIKIPEDIA
There are now 31 new Wikipedia articles reported on the project page that include 19 new biographies, 14 of these about women and six are of people of colour (three Māori people). Keep up the good work. Keep seeking out women and people of colour to celebrate through Wikipedia.

WIKIDATA
The targets specified in this project for Wikidata were exceeded within the first week of the project with the concerted efforts of two editors. A Wikidata item was created to track entries. Performing Arts Aotearoa New Zealand (Q106787482). With claims of ethnicity the policy is to include references from a biography, interview or personal website. Ethnicity of white people is strongly encouraged to be included where this information is available. Māori is listed and then also iwi (tribe/s).

EDIT-A-THON DUNEDIN
The Ōtepoti Dunedin Edit-a-thon was a success. It was at the Hocken Library on Saturday 10 July. The coordinator Pakoire and co-host DrThneed were joined in person by seven others, which included six new editors from the performing arts community, and two people working remotely in Wellington and Christchurch.

The new editors added 27 references to Wikipedia between them and a total of 2,017 words. Comments from new editors after they had learnt the basics and started editing related to how accessible they found doing it. There was motivation amongst many in the group to continue to meet as a way of progressing the articles they are interested in. With the experienced editors overall including Wikidata the edit-a-thon added 48.1K words, 4 commons uploads, 245 references, across 53 articles including 4 new Wikipedia articles and 15 new Wikidata articles.

COI
Conflict of interest (COI) is an area of consideration for editing in performing arts, since most subject experts are also practicing arts and producers. The edit-a-thon / meetup format was useful and people worked on unrelated articles but in tandem with others who knew where to get information.

IMAGES
There is more work to do to create opportunities to upload images to Wikimedia Commons under appropriate licences, as predicted this involves a lot of education with individuals and organisations as well as motivating people to follow through.
Take some pics of a local entertainment venue and upload them. Music venues, amateur arts, town hall, converted theatre, you would be surprised what isn’t there.

SUPPORT
All edits count - reach out if you need help or guidance and many thanks for any contribution you can make.

WikiProject update - Performing Arts Aotearoa 12 May 2022

[edit]

A year after the Performing Arts Aotearoa project started and as we are coming into winter (a busier editing time for many) here is an update.

The Performing Arts Aotearoa Wikiproject now lives on the WikiProject New Zealand page. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:WikiProject_New_Zealand/Performing_Arts_Aotearoa

I have added new articles created as part of the Pacific Arts Aotearoa Wikiproject. These articles by new editors include Lusi Faiva, Suli Moa, Edith Amituanai and Amanaki Prescott-Faletau, who was interviewed on Radio New Zealand last Sunday. The reporter let me know the article was valuable for the interview research – great feedback for all of us creating and improving content in Wikipedia.

On the project page is highlighted plenty of articles to create or improve. I invite you to have a look and contribute if you can. There are many long-standing festivals in Aotearoa without articles such as the Hawkes Bay Arts Festival, Tauranga Festival of the Arts, Taranaki International Arts Festival, Nelson Arts Festival and the Christchurch Arts Festival. Creating these Wikipedia pages or Wikidata items allows links to biographies and strengthens the weaving of Wikipedia.

Other suggestions for new articles:

Reach out to me if you want guidance on any aspects of Wikipedia, or a collegial conversation about writing encyclopaedic entries on performing arts. I can set up a zoom, or direct you to places for help.

Please try to remember to add any relevant articles improved or created to the lists on the project page so the impact can be seen. Take your name off the project page if you don’t want to get these sporadic updates. I will keep an eye on new articles and I have an ongoing campaign to get more images uploaded so we can illustrate the articles too. I have resources on Wikimedia Commons if you are interested. Feel free to contact me on my talk page.

Invitation to an in-person meetup in Mohua / Golden Bay

[edit]
Golden Bay Air are holding some seats for us until 21 November

Thinking about your summer break? Think about joining other Wikipedians and Wikimedians in Golden Bay / Mohua! Details are on the meetup page. There's heaps of interesting stuff to work on e.g. the oldest extant waka or New Zealand's oldest ongoing legal case. Or you may spend your time taking photos and then upload them.

Golden Bay is hard to get to and the airline flying into Tākaka uses small planes, so we are holding some seats from and to Wellington and we are offering attendees a $200 travel subsidy to help with costs.
