This seems like a good idea, but just to clarify, is the idea to line up the 100-odd sites before printing the plaques? Given that printers generally give large discounts for larger jobs, this might be the best option it it's practical. [[User:Nick-D|Nick-D]] ([[User talk:Nick-D|talk]]) 21:24, 2 February 2014 (EST)

Just so I'm clear, the proposal is that WMAU will print the plaques (at WMAU's expense) once the article hits GA (or FA, I imagine) status?  It's then up to the community member to arrange to have it mounted in proximity to the site?  [[User:Lankiveil|Lankiveil]] ([[User talk:Lankiveil|talk]]) 23:31, 2 February 2014 (EST).

A question

This seems like a good idea, but just to clarify, is the idea to line up the 100-odd sites before printing the plaques? Given that printers generally give large discounts for larger jobs, this might be the best option it it's practical. Nick-D (talk) 21:24, 2 February 2014 (EST)

yeah its best to do when we have 100 articles using the printer who created the freo ones. I'll also create the artworks like I did for freo this will be a considerable saving as well. Gnangarra 21:59, 2 February 2014 (EST)
Thanks for the offer - it would be great to see a mock up. It's worth considering how much text to include:
  • article name
  • "Wikipedia"
  • "Wikimedia Australia"
  • principal editors?
  • short description?
  • plaque placement date?

Quick question

Just so I'm clear, the proposal is that WMAU will print the plaques (at WMAU's expense) once the article hits GA (or FA, I imagine) status? It's then up to the community member to arrange to have it mounted in proximity to the site? Lankiveil (talk) 23:31, 2 February 2014 (EST).

WMAU will contact the site owner for permission to place the plaque before getting it printed. Gnangarra 00:04, 3 February 2014 (EST)
