I'm pleased to announce that The New Art Gallery Walsall: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_New_Art_Gallery_Walsall
where I am currently Wikipedian in Residence, today began to deploy QRpedia codes alongside a number the artworks in their collection. A snapshot (better pictures later!) of the first being attached below van Gogh's 'Sorrow' (subject of an article written as part of the project) is at: http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:New_Art_Gallery_Walsall_-_QRpedia_-_first_code_installed.jpeg As well for artists whose articles are already in many languages, such as Monet, Constable, Turner, Picasso and more, these will include articles on specific artworks and people, written as part of this GLAM collaboration: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:GLAM/New_Art_Gallery_Walsall#Articles not least: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oscar_Wilde%27s_tomb and the article about the gallery itself. Translations of articles in the latter set into other languages would be appreciated, please. -- Andy Mabbett @pigsonthewing http://pigsonthewing.org.uk _______________________________________________ Wikimedia UK mailing list [email protected] http://mail.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikimediauk-l WMUK: http://uk.wikimedia.org
