  2. Quilt Phase (talk) sends apologies but can report they have been busy wrangling spreadsheets and pdfs of spreadsheets into openRefine and reconciling fields to existing Wikidata items and it's quite exciting.

  • Round table for participants followed by problem-solving and chatting
  • Selected, renamed, and organised photos taken of the Aigantighe Art Gallery in Timaru - now uploaded!
  • Learned that New Zealand Government agency logos are generally Crown copyright and can't be added by New Zealanders to Wikimedia Commons. However, Americans can as they can use fair use provisions - need to find a friendly American to add!
  • Learned that street art, like the ones on various utility cabinets around Wellington, are copyrighted. The commissioner of the work generally holds copyright unless the artist has a contract that lets them retain it.
