[open-heritage] "Institutional template Monday"

[Sarah Stierch]

Hi everyone,

@peter_weis - a Wikimedian from Germany - is designing institutional 
templates for organizations that have content on Wikipedia. These 
templates are beneficial - it features all necessary information, 
including an image, of your GLAM. It gets placed on all Wikimedia 
Commons (or free image repository) media files that your GLAM is related 
to. Here is an example:

https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Al-Walid_ibn_Abdul-Rahman_-_Inscribed_Pound_Weight_-_Walters_476_-_Three_Quarter_Left.jpg

Scroll down to "Current location" And open the box. Long story short: 
it's sort of the only form of "advertising" on Wikimedia projects.

If you're interested in having your GLAM represented this way on 
Commons, please TWEET @peter_weis with the #glamwiki hashtag and he'll 
hook you up! :)

-Sarah
