This gif shows how our team contributed to Internet Archive, Wiki Commons and Kannada Wikisource by uploading out of copyright books from DLI and OUDL libraries effectivly to ensure they are reachable to larger audience round the clock.
Crowd sourcing project pages reviewed to fix the flow.
Requested community members & external resources to help us review the best books which should have a page in wiki
Out of copyright books list created to be pushed to wiki source.
Seeked further information on License issues – DLI and OUDL mark books as OUT_OF_COPYRIGHT which are questionable. Need better source to identify the books copyrights. \
Initiated tests and activities to push the books to Internet Archive & to Wiki commons
Requested help from community to get the commons books to wiki source.
Officially requested Prajavani and other news paper agencies to share the E-Book information under Creative Commons license to build wiki pages effectively.
Follow-ups done to check the status of content collaboration from news papers.
Tested article creation on wiki – moved the new page creation to sandbox as stub articles are a big no for Kannada Wiki. Using sandbox would be a best start to train new wikipedians to build a complete page before pushing the articles to main namespace.
