Children's Museum Update

Hello!
I wanted to give you an update on the Children's Museum Wikipedia collaboration. You can check out my brief overview in the Children's Museum blog, which includes details on the Apprentice Program project to create five new Wikipedia articles as well as the image donation and use of the new Wikipedia Widget to link the museum's website to Wikipedia.

Last month we completed our first museum image content donation of 30 images. While this seems to be a low number, what makes the donation unique is the curatorial involvement in choosing and vetting the images for their appropriateness and usefulness within Wikimedia (many of the objects are copyrighted toys and other works that have copyright restrictions.) The curators in the collections department were very hands-on in their involvement, and we'll be outlining this process in an upcoming case study. If you would like to help further this process, I'd be happy for you to help disperse the images into useful Wikipedia articles, or let the appropriate WikiProjects know of the new images. Another 30 will be uploaded in the coming month.

In addition to the collaboration with the Museum Apprentice Program students and the curatorial department, another important collaboration was between User:Ealdgyth and the American Collections curators to significantly update the Broad Ripple Park Carousel article. After an impressive amount of time and work, the article has now received Featured Article status. The museum is absolutely thrilled and will now be adding a QR code to the carousel exhibit Carousel: Wishes and Dreams. In the future, more QR codes will be added to the objects that have had articles written by the MAP students. We're excited by the success of this collaboration & will also be writing a case study on the process.

There is now a recurring Indianapolis Update on the newly minted GLAM Newsletter. If you'd like to subscribe to the GLAM newsletter, you can do so here. Thanks! And let me know if you have any questions! HstryQT (talk) 18:08, 19 April 2011 (UTC)

The miller, his son and the donkey

Thanks for adding the image to the The miller, his son and the donkey article! It mentioned this cloth, or the many cloths of this kind made in Cairo, but having an image adds greatly!

Hey there Sarah haven't talked to ya in a while. I wanted to let you know that I added the US related GLAM projects to the culture section of Template:US-related WikiProjects.

Move of Kyohei Inukai (artist)

Hey Sarah, did you realize that their are two artists with the same name, see Kyohei Inukai. I had created this article with dabbers for their birth date because if you check them, their is no other absolutely clear distinction between the two (both are painters, both standard artists, both Asian american of Japanese decent), Sadads (talk) 15:03, 29 May 2011 (UTC)

doncha know to put in the images during class time, while all the admins are asleep? Slowking4 (talk) 14:56, 31 May 2011 (UTC)

Remind me never to play tag with you.

You just lit up my watchlist with about 20 hits in a row. That's more hits than The Beatles. Almost. Anyway, good patch of work. einar Carptrash (talk) 14:24, 31 May 2011 (UTC)

Also. - from checking my watchlist - I am wondering why Stanford White is ranked on low importance on the AAA project? In the section of SIRIS that i use he gets 160 listings, a lot. I say "High Importance" but am reluctant to mess with your edits. Carptrash (talk) 18:38, 1 June 2011 (UTC)

Hey there. It's based on the content within the Archives of American Art. There are plenty of notable artists that are "low" in the ranking at this time - this is based on how much archival information we have about them - White is most likely low because we have only minor mentions about him by other artists, dealers or historians within the archives. That's why I'm not crowd sourcing people to help with the tagging. It's not about who is popular as an artist in regards to American art, but, who much AAA has on them =) SarahStierch (talk) 21:02, 1 June 2011 (UTC)

I find that surprising. If you go [3]] and type "White" into the artist field then go down 111 or so you'll see that he gets 160 listings. You need to search quite a way up or down before you run into that high a count again. PS do you kow Robin D. at the Archives? We have corresponded many times over the year, she might even remember . Or not. Carptrash (talk) 02:43, 2 June 2011 (UTC)

Again, the source I am using to analyze this information is not the SIRIS database, it is the archive collection of the American Art Archives. I am working alphabetically, and I have taken the time to search AAA's database (not SIRIS) and it turns out we have White's papers, so I'll be updating it to Top. I just hadn't gotten to White yet, and he was mentioned briefly in another artists papers hence the original Low rating. I don't know Robin, but, I haven't met all the staff yet. SarahStierch (talk) 02:47, 2 June 2011 (UTC)

You are doing great work and I am sorry to be a bother. And even i can slowly be brought about to understand that W is pretty far down the alphabet. Carptrash (talk) 02:56, 2 June 2011 (UTC)

It's all good, sorry I came off internet-snappy =) And thank you as always for your passion about art. I do hope you'll be participating in the projects I'm scheming! #wikilove SarahStierch (talk) 02:57, 2 June 2011 (UTC)
