Continuing the news from April, the three groups who received grants from GLAM Indonesia has finished their activities.

  1. Museum Musik Indonesia (Indonesian Music Museum) created a book with the stories of their 20 best collections: File:20 Koleksi Unggulan Museum Musik Indonesia.pdf.
  2. Sanggar Seni Karawitan Laras Siwi (Laras Siwi Karawitan Art Studio) organized a workshop of Karawitan and uploaded 52 pictures, 2 music audio, and 20 videos including 2 full performances and 2 practice sessions.
  3. Mandailing Manuscript Digitalization digitized 3 rare Mandailing (of North Sumatra) manuscripts with more than 250 pictures and upload them to Commons.

Did you know, the Mandailing people wrote their manuscripts on processed tree barks, and this made the manuscripts very rare and the art is almost lost in modern day.

Second #1Lib1Ref Campaign of 2023

Presentation

After the first campaign in January, this may we opened our second #1Lib1Ref campaign of the year. This time we invited not just librarians, but also Wikipedians, to add references to Indonesian Wikipedia articles. They could add references using CitationHunt or other methods. They started by enrolling in Outreach Dashboard

By June 15th, 19 participants have added more than 1100 references in 3 weeks, with the top 3 contributors over 770 references in 620 articles!



Wikisource Workshop in Singaraja, Bali

At the end of the month, the Denpasar Wikimedia Community organized Wikisource training in Singaraja, north of Bali. The 15 participants were introduced to WikiPustaka (Balinese Wikisource), and how to proofread books using two writing systems: Balinese script and Latin. Soon, there will be two competitions in Balinese Wikisource, one by Wikisource Loves Manuscripts and another one by the Balinese Wikimedia Community. Stay tuned for future reports!
