GLAM and "why use Wikimedia Commons"
Is it possible to find some common grounds on why and how a
GLAM-organization should use Wikimedia Commons? Forget about troublesome
disputes with specific organizations. Why should they use us and is it
possible for us to tell them how to better utilize our services? What
are our services? Perhaps we need a sales department... ;)

Look for something along these lines in the upcoming Signpost,
hopefully. A handful of Wikimedians who have worked with GLAMs are
working on an open letter making the case of mutually beneficial
cooperative relationships with WMF projects.
