RecoveredNS112:Outreach

If you know of any academic (or other) institutions that you think might be interested in collaborating with Wikiversity, please list them here. Please try to be specific about what kinds of collaboration you think might be possible (ie specific kinds of activities they do that we could help with, and vice versa). Obviously, Wikiversity content should be useful to any academic institution (and many other types of institutions too), so please keep this page to ideas on or information about mutually beneficial collaborations.

Meta Collab at Wikia

Meta Collab at Wikia now has a Wikiversity article, discussion area and Wikiversity update section. A local Wikiversity article, Wikia, in the main namespace includes an opt-in listing for Wikiversity projects that would like to be represented at their appropriate spots within the Wikia metacommunity. Please provide constructive feedback on the talk page here or at Talk:Wikia. Thanks in advance.
