Video feedback
Hi RD. Couple of comments on your excellent video work.
I saw the second draft of the EduWiki video yesterday and I'm blown away: I think it could excite a lot of interest among educators. I feel foolish for trying to tell you about proper framing, as you clearly know more about this than I do. The only improvement I would make is that towards the end there is a long section with Toni speaking, and it could do with being broken up, either by a soundbite from someone else or just by a visual filler while we still hear Toni's voice. I know I didn't do my piece to camera, but is there any chance of extracting a soundbite from my initial talk? It would please Jisc (the funders) a lot to have my "Jisc Wikimedia Ambassador" title mentioned somewhere in the video, and it was their funding along with WMUK's that allowed me to play the role that I did.
John Cummings and I were also talking about the Wikimania video and what a really impressive introduction it is to Wikimedia UK and the team. If a new version were made without the multilingual Wikimania-specific greetings at the end, and without nearly so much footage of London at the start, then John and I would push for it to be included on the WMUK home page. I hope this idea appeals to you! Cheers, MartinPoulter Jisc (talk) 09:57, 20 November 2013 (UTC)

Invitation to participate
Hello Rock drum, On the German-language Wikipedia the community has introduced a system for several years in what users conform that they have met other users in real life. This system was created to create more trust between users and thus creating a better and nicer place to work on the wiki. On the German-language Wikipedia it is a huge success and I translated almost everything of this tool in English so that also users from other Wikipedias can use it. It only makes sense to sign up into the system if you have met at least three other users in person. We have met and you have been several occasions where you have met other Wikimedians, so that shouldn't be a problem. You can sign up for the tool, after three other users confirm they have met you, you can confirm other users yourself. About this system, more information can be found at Wikipedia:Personal acquaintances. In the green section are the instructions. On Wikipedia:Personal acquaintances/Participants will grow a list of participants who are active in the English speaking parts of the world. It would be great if would you sign up! :-) Greetings - Romaine (talk) 15:41, 19 April 2014 (UTC)
- PS: On the German-language Wikipedia, everything is translated into English, but you need perhaps to set your preferences on English to show it in this language. Romaine (talk) 15:41, 19 April 2014 (UTC)
- To editor Rock drum: you can check the full list of > 1,500 participants at http://tools.wmflabs.org/pb/beta/users/ and here - there are much more you could know from en:wp. :) --.js (talk) 07:39, 1 July 2014 (UTC)
