Data Uploads [ edit ] Wikidata - 12,300 new Welsh labels added for places in Wales (Done as a volunteer over Christmas) BaGLAMa (page views for Wikipedia articles containing images from National Library of Wales)
Dec Page Views - 20,831,720 (GLAMorgan) GLAMorous (Percentage of Commons files used on Wikimedia projects)
Percentage of images used in a Wiki (Jan 01 2024) - 83.29% Note: NLW is now on GLAM WIKI DASHBOARD but image view figures are considerably lower than those returned by GLAMorgan or BaGLAMa. ALso BaGLAMa stats have updated for early summer but the figures have suddenly dropped without a clear cause, and differ significantly from GLAMorgan. Wikipedia Image views is a key metric for NLW - reported back to Welsh Government. The lack of consistent tools is a cause for serious concern and risks us having to move away from this as a KPI.Aim 2 - Digital Literacy [ edit ] Work with partners to develop digital, data and information literacy through Wikimedia
