Lori Philips has been interviewed by the Indianapolis Woman Magazine.
A great article discussing the role of the Wikipedian in residence and how QRpedia codes have taken off there.

QRpedia Video
Beautiful video about the work Derby Museum has been doing with Wikipedia & QRpedia.
Derby Museum using multilingual QR codes from Andrew James Sykes on Vimeo.
In 2011 Wikipedians wrote and translated 1200 new articles to allow the museums objects to read in over a dozen languages using QRpedia codes.
QRpedia in Russia
The “Wiki Loves Monuments” project in Russia has been featured on Russian TV. Check out the QRpedia codes!
You can see all the articles (and their QRpedia codes) – there is also a list of articles which need translating.
QRpedia’s Name
There is some confusion about QRpedia’s name.
The answer is very simple. The “pedia” isn’t from “Encyclopedia”. It isn’t from “Wikipedia”. It’s an acronym.
- P – Potentially
- E – Every
- D – Device
- I - Interlanguage
- A – Access
The “QR”, of course, standing for “Quick Response”.
I hope that clears up the matter
