We want you!
- The timeframe for presentation of the curricula for our future collaborators for the project Archeowiki ended. The Board is now evaluating the nominations. Good luck to all applicants!
- Giulia Sepe, the organizer of the Wikimedia Conference, is looking for volunteers who can be present during the days of the conference to lend a hand (solving small logistical problems, responding to requests from participants, writing the minutes of meetings, etc..). If you want to help, write to Giulia: giulia.sepe (at) wikimedia.it.
The Giannino affair: when fact-checking means a lot
Oscar Giannino, a business journalist at the head of the list To Act to Stop the Decline, resigned from President of the movement a few days before Italian general elections, after it was discovered that the master in economics that he had claimed to have achieved the Chicago Booth University was nonexistent. The news was discussed for a long time, but the trigger was in all probability a post written by Wikipedians Jaqen and Tooby. Read the analysis on the Wikimedia Foundation blog; another report may be found on the Italian blog Voices.
