Ang '''Outreach Wiki''' ay nagsisilbing tahanan para sa ilang mga pag-abot at mga inisyatiba sa pakikipagtulungan. Ito ay isang aklatan, isang koleksyon ng mga pinakamahusay na kagawian, at isang mararatingan ng pakikipagtulongan para sa anumang kilos na nakatungo sa madlang bayan, sa mga kultural na institusyon, o sa mga programa sa edukasyon.

Ang aming tungo ay makapag-recruit at suportahan ang mga bagong Wikimedian at magbuo ng matibay na relasyon sa mga kasamahan sa kultura at pang-edukasyon. Kailangan namin ang iyong tulong sa paggawa ng lansagang pakikipagtulongan  na ito na lalong malaki, lalong mahusay, at lalong kapaki-pakinabang. Maraming dapat gawin.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
;[[Special:MyLanguage/GLAM|GLAM]]&lt;br /&gt;
:Gumagana ang proyektong ito sa mga ''gallery'', aklatan, ''archive'' at museo upang magdala ng kultural na nilalaman ''online''.&lt;br /&gt;

The Family Archives Project Returns, with New GLAM Partners.


=== Our path===
In partnership with the Flavio Machivado Viscarra Foundation, we have been developing a registration model for GLAM institutions in Bolivia. This project continues to expand and has focused on standardizing and identifying key data from local institutions across Bolivia’s nine departments. The model is part of the “Culture at a Click” Project, a replicable framework for cultural institutions in Bolivia to collaborate on Wikimedia projects.
[[File:CULTURA A UN CLIC.jpg|left|thumb]]

=== Our next steps ===
[[File:Tesoros familiares.jpg|left|thumb]]
April will bring more surprises for the GLAM community in Bolivia, as we will be publishing four manuals related to the “Cultura un clic” project and releasing more content from the “Tesoros Familiares” project, this time including images of the history of the Theater in Bolivia.

{{GLAM/Newsletter/Title|Updates on work by BHL-Wiki Working Group members|By [[User:Ambrosia10|Ambrosia10]]}}

===BHL Field Museum to host BHL Technical Infrastructure===
[[File:Field Museum N.jpg|thumb|The Field Museum looking north across Chicago]] 
The BHL-Wiki community are celebrating the news that the [[w:Field Museum of Natural History|Field Museum]] has agreed to host the BHL Technical Infrastructure. More information on this transition away from the [[w:Smithsonian Institution|Smithsonian Institution]] can be found in this [https://blog.biodiversitylibrary.org/2026/02/transition-update-8-field-museum-to-host-technical-infrastructure BHL blog]. Many BHL-Wiki working group members were equal parts delighted and relieved to receive this news.

===Vanderbilt University’s Heard Libraries Joins BHL===
More positive news has also been announced with this [https://blog.biodiversitylibrary.org/2026/03/vanderbilt-university-heard-libraries-join-bhl-commit-major-technical-support BHL blog] proclaiming [[w:Jean and Alexander Heard Library|Vanderbilt University’s Heard Libraries]] is joining BHL and will be contributing cloud infrastructure expertise and technical leadership for BHL. 

=== BHL Annual Meeting 2026 ===
Siobhan Leachman ([[User:Ambrosia10|Ambrosia10]]) will be attending the BHL Annual Meeting in London. She was asked to prepare a document to report back to BHL Annual Meeting attendees on the effect of the transition BHL has been undergoing on the BHL-Wiki Working Group. She prepared the following summary of the  the [https://docs.google.com/document/d/1S_v9LfrFyNUyjU_VHaNo4mbObfWU1lHS0UKoMSDkV10/edit?usp=sharing following document] to be read by attendees prior to the meeting. 

===BHL Day 2026===
Ambrosia10 and [[User:S.v.Mering|Sabine von Mering]] have also submitted and have had accepted an abstract to the public symposium [https://about.biodiversitylibrary.org/get-involved/events/bhl-day-2026/ BHL Day 2026] which will take place at the Natural History Museum, on Wednesday 29 April. They will be presenting on research they and their colleagues had undertaken on flowering plant genera named after women and the two research papers they and their colleagues published on their research. Wikidata was used to create the linked open dataset for all flowering plant genera whose names honour women.

=== Wikidata type specimen data model ===
[[File:Wikidata WikiProject Natural History Specimen Data Model.png|thumb|Wikidata WikiProject Natural History Specimen Data Model]]
In 2024 the BHL Wiki working group raised the issue of the need for a Wikidata type specimen item data model. See this [https://github.com/JJDear83/BHL-WIKI-Working-Group/issues/21 issue] raised in the BHL-Wiki Working Group Github repository. This issue was the inspiration for work undertaken by two members of the BHL-Wiki working group Siobhan Leachman ([[User:Ambrosia10|Ambrosia10]]), Chair of the BHL-Wiki working group, and Brodie Satherley ([[User:Dactylantha|Dactylantha]]) from [[w:Auckland War Memorial Museum|Auckland War Memorial Museum]] (an affiliate of BHL). &lt;br&gt;

Siobhan and Brodie created the [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata:WikiProject_Natural_History_Specimen_Data_Model WikiProject Natural History Specimen Data Model] to document this collaboration and proceeded to propose Wikidata properties and create documentation for both a Wikidata type specimen item data model as well as a Wikimedia Commons data model for the structured data that should be attached to specimen images. &lt;br&gt;

They have also created “how to” documentation for both data models, cross walks to the Darwin Core data standard for both models as well as a documentation for an example upload/creation of type specimen Wikidata items undertaken via OpenRefine. All the documentation produced has been shared on [https://zenodo.org/communities/q137575952/records?q=&amp;l=list&amp;p=1&amp;s=10&amp;sort=newest Zenodo] to expose it to the wider Biodiversity community. The data models, crosswalks and “how to” documentation have also been shared on [https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:Wikidata:WikiProject_Natural_History_Specimen_Data_Model Wikimedia Commons]. &lt;br&gt;

Siobhan and Brodie are grateful for the feedback received from other members of the BHL-Wiki working group as well as the wider Wiki community.

=== CILIP MDG Conference Metafutures ===

[[File:CILIP MDG Conference 2026 MetaFutures welcome table.jpg|thumb|upright|alt=Books, stickers and postcards available on a table at a conference|CILIP MDG 2026 Conference welcome table]]
In March 2026 the periodic [[w:Chartered Institute of Library and Information Professionals|CILIP]] Metadata and Discovery Group conference met at Engineers House in Bristol, UK. Read the [https://www.cilip.org.uk/members/group_content_view.asp?group=201298&amp;id=1113783 full detail of the conference programme].

[[File:CILIP MDG Conference 2026 MetaFutures 4.jpg|thumb|Fran Frenzel (Metadata Analyst at LSE Library) presents on the LSE Thesis Wikidata Project]]
Wikidata and OpenRefine featured regularly as part of experimental advances in metadata work in library catalogues. Notable examples from LSE include Fran Frenzel's presentation 'Metadata in Motion: Building Datasets from Library Catalogues' on the LSE thesis project and Helen Williams' paper 'The Metadata Team and institutional research visibility'. Where LSE own their own metadata for print theses in their collection they were able to export this to be a [https://researchonline.lse.ac.uk/id/eprint/137571/ now published useable dataset]. Associated Wiki pages including visualisations are available via the [[d:Wikidata:WikiProject LSEThesisProject|LSE Thesis WikiProject]]. A detailed thread of Fran Frenzel's talk [https://bsky.app/profile/cilipmdg.bsky.social/post/3mguoajh5rk2a is available on Bluesky].

Leeds University also presented on their BIBFRAME conversion, which utilised Wikidata identifiers throughout their catalogue, converting metadata between library and archives systems (which had varying linked data capability), but also human checking identifiers as issues were found with mistakes in authority files across VIAF, Wikidata and LC (where one mistake can be copied across all where data is shared).

The majority of time this month has been spent preparing structured data about the Enamels of the World collection. 102 artworks in this collection are already described in Wikidata. The present work is an import of basic facts about the remaining 1,113 artworks in the collection. This in turn will support a bulk upload of images. This is perhaps the collection which most benefits from open data, because there are lots of connections to people (named artists; subjects of portraits; presentations by one person to another). This data set will add to the open data about the careers of notable artists such as [https://reasonator.toolforge.org/?q=Q189762&amp;lang=en Peter Carl Fabergé].

Comparing ArtUK's profile of the Japanese artist Yabu Meizan with the information about him on Commons and Wikidata, I realised there were artworks from the Khalili Collections that were not tagged in Wikimedia as being his work. I fixed this, making more works from the collections visible in the [[:commons:Category:Yabu Meizan|Commons image gallery]] and [https://w.wiki/Kiwg Wikidata's query for this artist].

A volunteer translated the Anis al-Hujjaj article [[:w:ha:Anis Al-Hujjaj|into Hausa]]. This is the first article related to the Khalili Collections in this West African language, and the 93rd new article from this project over all.

Some new articles using images from the Khalili Collections (It's not yet possible to get a complete list):

=== Lambeth Libraries meetup , Monday 30th March ===

[[File:Brixton Library, Windrush Square.jpg|thumb|Brixton Library on Windrush Square, south London, UK. Which hosts a monthly Wikipedia meetup for its users.]]
Brixton Library in south London, UK host a monthly meetup on the last Monday of each month. Using library resources, interest in local history and editors' personal editing interests the session takes on active editing as well as a social space for editors experienced and also brand new. [https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Meetup/Brixton/15 This month] had 7 attendees writing articles on local libraries, discussing standards for book Wikipedia pages, immersive artists, local history archives linked open data and more. There was an interest in the group for some attendees to attend Wikimania Paris in July and liaise with other UK Wikimedia editors to have a meetup there. Lambeth Libraries have the Readers and Writers Festival coming up in May, the Lambeth Heritage Festival in September (where the meetup group are currently planning a local history themed editing session) and [https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Meetup/Brixton/16 the next monthly meetup will be on Monday 27th April 6pm-8pm] for anyone wishing to attend.

=== Khalili Foundation ===
[[File:Khalili Collection Enamels of the World AUS769.jpg|thumb|right|Bird-form Prunkstàck from the Enamels of the World collection]]
The majority of time this month has been spent preparing structured data about the [[:w:en:Khalili Collection of Enamels of the World|Enamels of the World collection]]. 102 artworks in this collection are already described in Wikidata. The present work is an import of basic facts about the remaining 1,113 artworks in the collection. This in turn will support a bulk upload of images. This is perhaps the collection which most benefits from open data, because there are lots of connections to people (named artists; subjects of portraits; presentations by one person to another). This data set will add to the open data about the careers of notable artists such as [https://reasonator.toolforge.org/?q=Q189762&amp;lang=en Peter Carl Fabergé]. Data reconciliation is tedious work, but there is a possibility that AI tools could speed up the process; I discussed with this Shani Evenstein Sigalov of the AI-BRIDGES project and am staying in touch with that project.

As an example of what open data enables, [https://wq42.toolforge.org/ WQ42] is a natural-language interface to Wikidata. Asked &quot;Which is the biggest of the Khalili Collections?&quot;, it correctly identifies the Khalili Collection of Islamic Art and gives the size of each of the eight collections.

Comparing ArtUK's profile of the Japanese artist Yabu Meizan with the information about him on Commons and Wikidata, I realised there were artworks from the Khalili Collections that were not tagged in Wikimedia as being his work. I fixed this, making more works from the collections visible in the [[:commons:Category:Yabu Meizan|Commons image gallery]] and [https://w.wiki/Kiwg Wikidata's query for this artist]. On the way, I added Meizan works to thirteen more categories on Commons, including [[:commons:Category:Mantises in art|Mantises in art]], [[:commons:Category:Trees in art of Japan|Trees in art of Japan]], and [[:commons:Category:Women doing textile work in art|Category:Women doing textile work in art]].

A volunteer translated the Anis al-Hujjaj article [[:w:ha:Anis Al-Hujjaj|into Hausa]]. This is the first article related to the Khalili Collections in this West African language, and the 93rd new article from this project over all.

Some new articles using images from the Khalili Collections (It's not yet possible to get a complete list):
* Tatar: [[:w:tt:Сөлес язуы|Thuluth]]
* Tatar: [[:w:tt:Нәсех язуы|Naskh]]
* Central Kurdish: [[:w:ckb:خزمەتکاری دوو حەرەمی پیرۆز|Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques]]
* Persian: [[:w:fa:فیزیک در جهان اسلام در سده‌های میانه|Physics in medieval Islam]]

There is a delay calculating image views for March; I've raised this with the Wikimedia Foundation.

Oulu Löyly – open culture think &amp; do will happen in Oulu, Finland, 8–10 June, 2026! It brings together advocates of open culture, policy makers, technologists, researchers and creative thinkers to discuss '''heritage at risk''' and the open digital environment. 

The goal is to craft actionable digital survival strategies for under-resourced community archives, endangered languages or heritage under threat in the digital era.

The program features a public Open Culture Fair and Oulu Sauna Festival on Monday 8 June, the nightless night, and the intensive think &amp; do workshop on Tuesday–Wednesday 9–10 June.&lt;gallery mode=&quot;packed&quot; heights=&quot;300&quot;&gt;

&lt;/gallery&gt;

=== Oulu Central Library Saari ===
Oulu Central Library Saari is the venue for Oulu Löyly. The library was designed by architects Marjatta and Martti Jaatinen in 1981, and renewed in 2025 by JKMM Architects. It is part of a nationally significant built cultural environment (RKY). The renovated library reopened to the public in November 2025.

=== Open Culture Fair ===
'''8 June 2026, Central Library Saari'''

The opening day of Oulu Löyly is an Open Cultural Fair that is open to the public. The participants will share their superpowers: advocate for policies and practices, showcase projects and programs, and run mini workshops introducing their work.

Keynote presentations and the panel discussion outlining the event topics will be streamed online.

=== Sauna Festival ===
'''8 June 2026, Tuira Beach'''

After a hectic day, the participants will warm up their collaboration at the [https://kesansauna.fi/saunafestivaali/ Oulu Sauna Festival]. The event features over ten saunas, including sauna containers and a floating sauna.

=== Think &amp; do ===
'''9–10 June 2026, Central Library Saari'''

'''Tuesday'''

* '''Making groups''' – The participants already know a lot about each other based on the previous day's program. With a little more encouragement, the likeminded ones will form groups to work on a joint mission.
* '''Drafting''' – Planning will be in full thrust before lunch!
* '''Group work''' – And after lunch everyone will be fully focused on their work! There are many other spaces around the library where it is possible to work, as well as outside.
* '''Check-in''' – We return to the Laituri space for the situation check-in.
* '''Optional working time''' – People who wish to continue working after the check-in, can work in the space until the library closes.

'''Wednesday'''

* '''Finalizing group work''' – There will be a little time to finalize and prepare the presentations.
* '''Presentations''' – The results are presented in the Laituri space, and the session is streamed. No pressure!

&lt;/gallery&gt;

=== Oulu Central Library Saari ===
Oulu Central Library Saari is the venue for Oulu Löyly. The library was designed by architects Marjatta and Martti Jaatinen in 1981, and renewed in 2025 by JKMM Architects. It is part of a nationally significant built cultural environment (RKY). The renovated library reopened to the public in November 2025.

=== Open Culture Fair ===
'''8 June 2026, Central Library Saari'''

The opening day of Oulu Löyly is an Open Cultural Fair that is open to the public. The participants will share their superpowers: advocate for policies and practices, showcase projects and programs, and run mini workshops introducing their work.

Keynote presentations and the panel discussion outlining the event topics will be streamed online.

=== Sauna Festival ===
'''8 June 2026, Tuira Beach'''

After a hectic day, the participants will warm up their collaboration at the [https://kesansauna.fi/saunafestivaali/ Oulu Sauna Festival]. The event features over ten saunas, including sauna containers and a floating sauna.

=== Think &amp; do ===
'''9–10 June 2026, Central Library Saari'''

'''Tuesday'''

* '''Making groups''' – The participants already know a lot about each other based on the previous day's program. With a little more encouragement, the likeminded ones will form groups to work on a joint mission.
* '''Drafting''' – Planning will be in full thrust before lunch!
* '''Group work''' – And after lunch everyone will be fully focused on their work! There are many other spaces around the library where it is possible to work, as well as outside.
* '''Check-in''' – We return to the Laituri space for the situation check-in.
* '''Optional working time''' – People who wish to continue working after the check-in, can work in the space until the library closes.

'''Wednesday'''

* '''Finalizing group work''' – There will be a little time to finalize and prepare the presentations.
* '''Presentations''' – The results are presented in the Laituri space, and the session is streamed. No pressure!
* '''Discussion''' – After the presentations we will wrap up the work and envision next steps.

* '''Drafting''' – Planning will be in full thrust before lunch!
* '''Group work''' – And after lunch everyone will be fully focused on their work! There are many other spaces around the library where it is possible to work, as well as outside.

* '''Optional working time''' – People who wish to continue working after the check-in, can work in the space until the library closes.

'''Wednesday'''

* '''Finalizing group work''' – There will be a little time to finalize and prepare the presentations.
* '''Presentations''' – The results are presented in the Laituri space, and the session is streamed. No pressure!

{{GLAM/Newsletter/Title|Spring 2026 news from Ukraine – Wiki Loves Folklore &amp; more #1Lib1Ref|By [[User:AntonProtsiuk (WMUA)|AntonProtsiuk]]}}
[[File:Ukraine everywhere on Wikipedia visual.png|thumb|right|300px|“Ukraine everywhere on Wikipedia” – a visual for Ukraine’s Cultural Diplomacy Month]]
Spring 2026 was an eventful season for Wikimedia Ukraine, with several GLAM/culture-related initiatives wrapping up and new ones launching – from our traditional #1Lib1Ref campaign to a folklore photo contest &amp; Ukraine's Cultural Diplomacy Month.
;1. #1Lib1Ref's winter–spring round adds hundreds of references

The latest round of the international [[w:uk:Вікіпедія:1Lib1Ref|#1Lib1Ref campaign on Ukrainian Wikipedia]] ran from February 19 to March 11, 2026. Within this round, 37 contributors made 389 edits and improved 335 articles with references to reliable sources. Among the improved articles were entries on topics ranging from the return of Crimean Tatars from deportation to human rights in Germany, the Zaporizhian Sich, and various botanical and mycological subjects. The campaign continues to demonstrate the potential of engaging librarians with Wikipedia: it remains open to everyone but has a special focus on library professionals.

;2. Wiki Loves Folklore wraps up with strong results; Feminism &amp; Folklore adds 100+ articles

The third Ukrainian edition of the [[commons:Commons:Wiki Loves Folklore 2026 in Ukraine|Wiki Loves Folklore photo contest]] ran until March 31 and collected over 1900 photographs documenting intangible cultural heritage – traditional crafts, rituals, folk costumes, celebrations and other cultural practices. This year the contest also included a special “Ramadan” nomination for photos related to Islamic culture and traditions, as well as a video and audio nomination.

Alongside the photo contest, the international “Feminism and Folklore” writing campaign invited contributors to create and improve Wikipedia articles about women's roles in folklore and culture. Over 270 articles were created or substantially improved on Ukrainian Wikipedia during the campaign, covering topics from the Triple Goddess to Maman Brigitte in Haitian Vodou and the Moon Goddess in Maya mythology.

;3. Ukraine’s Cultural Diplomacy Month returns for the sixth year, now focused on contemporary culture

On April 1, the sixth edition of [[meta:Ukraine's Cultural Diplomacy Month 2026|Ukraine's Cultural Diplomacy Month]] kicked off on Wikipedia. The campaign, co-organized by Wikimedia Ukraine, the Ukrainian Institute and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine, with the Global Coalition for Ukrainian Studies as a strategic partner, invites Wikimedians worldwide to create and translate articles about Ukrainian culture in any language edition of Wikipedia throughout April.

This year's edition focuses specifically on contemporary Ukrainian culture, aiming to make modern artistic voices and practices more visible in the global encyclopedia. In 2025, the campaign resulted in over 1,620 articles created or improved across a record 70 languages.
