- Abstract
Introducing the GLAMwiki Toolset, the first standardised, mass-upload system for Wikimedia Commons. Learn how to use this powerful tool designed specifically to assist GLAMs to get their multimedia exposed to the widest possible audience - on Wikipedia Articles.
- Detailed proposal
This presentation will not be an in-depth or "practical" session to undertake your own upload. It will however give the attendees the understanding of what they need to do to use the tool.
Further to the above, this presentation will also include a explanation of the "GWT v.2" development work that will (funding pending) be beginning soon. This is an excellent opportunity for new GWT users to share their thoughts on how the system could be improved.

- Length of presentation/talk
