Agenda

2. Screenshot / photograph as we forgot last month and don't forget to check the notes for accuracy if you have time.

3. Progress on Action Points
 * Question for Giantflightlessbirds - Should the Wikipedia NZ user group join this list? https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo? Einebillion (talk) 01:45, 19 July 2020 (UTC)
 * MurielMary to follow up with the Foundation as to whether there are any limitations for a meet up group to set up a website in the absence of a chapter being authorised.

4. Wiki News - add any news from the wider Wiki movement the group may be unaware of
 * Toby Hudson is working on an interesting google chrome extension for linking url identifiers to Wikidata. See this Facebook video that gives you a summary of what he's is working on. Ambrosia10 (talk)
 * Here's the central on-wiki page for Entity Explosion. --99of9 (talk) 09:27, 15 August 2020 (UTC)

 * Playmarket Editathon was held virtually and successfully yesterday. See Meetup/Wellington/Playmarket_Edit-A-Thon for more information. --Ambrosia10 (talk)

5. Code of Conduct Discussion Can we have a code of conduct for this meeting? A good example is here: https://www.webstock.org.nz/19/code-of-conduct/ What would be the consequences of a breach of the code of conduct should we adopt one. Group agreed on principle that a Code of conduct is needed and will go and consider the link given. One recommendation raised by MurielMary is that members would like to see whom they are talking to at least at the first introduction, if technically possible.

6. Note taking for the meeting. Can the group consider collaborating on note taking for the group. Victoria is finding this onerous. Perhaps adding content prior to or after the meeting as well as during in outcomes but being clear who is editing so there are no conflicts. Alternatively we can have create an etherpad for each meeting. What does the group think? see this link about etherpads. Ambrosia10 (talk) The Group discussed work arounds such as google docs or etherpads. Discussion around this concluded that probably the best solution would be to nominate one note taker each meeting and that that person is to edit the meeting notes only. If members during the meeting want things to be added they are to tell the nominated note taker for that particular meeting.

7. Round table for participants to say what you’re working on and if you need help to do anything or want anything demonstrated - You can add requests for help here prior to the meeting if you want
 * DrThneed attended a local NDF meeting and there seems to be GLAM folk keen to learn more about Wikidata. They may be attempting to have more information NDF meetings in order to progress this.
 * MurielMary has said that there has been more Wiki based meetings in and around Chch. This includes a once a month WikiWednesday meetup at the local polytechnic. MurielMary also has been attending the Queensland Art Gallery Group wikipedia training and found it a very interesting approach to training new Wikipedia editors.
 * DrThneed discussed the possibility of having a spreadsheet of Open NZ GLAMs. Ambrosia10 pointed to the Douglas McCarthy/Andrea Wallace Open GLAM survey as the place where these are collated for international coverage and to avoid doubling up effort.
 * Jon suggested that the group have a Next Cloud account. He's going to create one for the group and we're going to have a play with it next meeting.

Requests for help

 * DrThneed needs to write a property proposal, any advice appreciated!
 * DrThneed raised issue she's discussing with a Smithsonian librarian at https://groups.google.com/g/openrefine?pli=1 - 99of9 gave the new reconcile link to add to OpenRefine https://wdreconcile.toolforge.org/en/api as a possible solution.
