The University of Edinburgh Wikimedian in Residence Project.
University of Edinburgh, Wikimedia UK Partnership of the Year 2018
 Following successful collaborations with Wikimedia in 2015, the University of Edinburgh hosted a Wikimedian in Residence from January 2016 to January 2017 as a part-time (0.5) year-long project to advocate and raise awareness of Open Knowledge, working with academic staff, students, library & archive staff and Wikimedians throughout Scotland. In January 2017, the residency was extended for a second year and increased to full-time. As of January 2019, the residency has now been made a full-time, open-ended position to continue & build on the successes of the first three years.

If you're interested in becoming involved in any way please contact Ewan McAndrew at [email protected]
Please note: The main student-created website for the residency is now located, and more routinely updated, on the University of Edinburgh website.
