Several women articulated strong emotions associated with publishing wiki pages & putting ideas in the public domain:
“Its an emotional connection… less than 2hrs of me putting her page in place it was the top hit in Google & I just thought that’s it, that’s impact right there!” https://t.co/nZWRFex7Si

Articles on Wikipedia using images from the Uni of Edinburgh collections have had over 15.5million pageviews in the last year (!) @GWillshaw #liblitlearn
.@GWillshaw saying that upload of images to Wikimedia Commons has increased views of University library collections. #liblitlearn
