About me

User:JamieF with User:SuperHamster and User:Dominic, project team for View it! Tool.

User:JamieF (second from left) at Wikimania 2024 during the GLAM Global Meetup

I am the Scholarly Communication Librarian at Butler University. I was previously the Senior Wikipedian at the United States National Agricultural Library for six years, and have been a Wikipedian nine years. I am one of the co-organizers for the Wikimedians of Indiana User Group. Additionally, I was the community manager for the WMF-funded View it! tool which was the newcomer "Coolest Tool" in 2024 and recently served as the program chair for WikiConference North America 2024. I am the chair of the Wikimedia Working Group at the Digital Public Library of America.

I am active in the GLAM space and I'm available to help either editing and a variety of Wikipedia training, talking about open access and knowledge, and helping GLAM institutions to get active in Wikipedia and on Wikimedia Commons. My interests are Wikipedia are expansive, but in particular I like to increase coverage about women in STEM, BIPOC folks in all fields, and LGBTQ+ people, history, and culture in the city I live in. I care about increasing coverage of legal topics and documenting the life of bills both federally and in Indiana. I am involved with editing efforts at Indiana University Indianapolis, Montana State University, and University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign.

About my work/conflict of interest

I support the mission of multiple GLAM institutions by working to make their holdings more accessible to the public by making them available to Wikipedia for use in creating and editing articles. When I edit Wikipedia as part of my duties, I strictly abide by Wikipedia's accepted practices on conflicts of interest, neutrality, and notability. I will always work in the best interest of Wikipedia, because that aligns with the missions I am dedicated to and I will modify my editing behavior based on any issues brought to my attention by other editors.
