Wikipedia and public television - a match made in heaven?

More and more educational clips from German public service broadcasters are making their way into Wikipedia, improving hundreds of articles and raking in tens of millions of views. This success story would not have been possible without the work of community project “Wiki Loves Broadcast” which helps the broadcasters to identify suitable content for Creative Commons licensing and is responsible for integrating relevant videos into Wikipedia articles. In this session, Wiki Loves Broadcast and Wikimedia Deutschland showcase their work and invite the international Wikipedia community to join a growing effort to bring publicly funded audiovisual content into Wikipedia.
