Today the Open Video Alliance is launching an important project: a mass campaign to bring video to Wikipedia. Moving images can communicate ideas in ways that text can’t. We think this is the next step in Wikipedia’s evolution.
Let’s Get Video on Wikipedia is part of our effort to support both individuals and institutions who wish to contribute to this vision. For individual contributors, we are offering the best and easiest tutorial anywhere on How to Post a Video to Wikipedia, along with a number of community-based projects to support collaborative work.
We’re also making it easier to convert videos to Theora, the open format used by Wikipedia. Participatory Culture Foundation, makers of Miro, are unveiling a free conversion app for Mac and Windows. Watch the PCF blog for an official announcement.
There’s lots happening elsewhere, as OVA members coordinate efforts around software improvements and content partnerships. If you’re interested in contributing to the development of open video tech, you can download and install the Kaltura HTML5 media library here.
Video is going to enhance Wikipedia and make it an even better educational resource. Not only is open video good for Wikipedia; it’s also good for the web. Wikipedia is the biggest site yet to implement fully open video, and its success will lend momentum to the movement for a 100% open and royalty-free video distribution system.
See the PCF blog for more thoughts on the campaign.
