Hi Randy:
Thanks for your interest in our organization which is India's National folklore Support Centre and its official website is www.indianfolklore.org I direct the Centre and now we are in the process of moving our website to a large server. It will be up and running again in another ten days time. Apart from offering online courses through our website, we intend to use mediawiki for presenting our huge audi visual archive online. I shall share with you and other educators in the wikieducator community more details once our website up.
With warm regards,
Yours truly,
M.D.Muthukumaraswamy

Hi MD,
 
See Wayne's reply above. (I will reply forthwith).
 
Also, I checked out your indianfolklore.org site - what are your plans for this?

Hi Randy:
thanks for the lead. I checked Codex site and it seems it is specific to that organization's wiki.
Yes there is an export facility in zotero to send an iem in a collection as wiki citation template. In the preferences option if one specifies the domain path (in our case, it is wiki educator) then it is possible to send a reference stored in zotero collection to a wiki page, I have gathered. I am yet to check that in practice but hope this is useful.
Thanks once again
Yours truly,
M.D.Muthukumaraswamy

Hi MD,
 
While I'm not a techie - I found this on the Zotero developer blog - would this be of any help? Anyone else?

Zotero To GROK Codex

Author/Contact: Fitzgerald Steele

Organization: GROK Lab, University of Iowa

URL: Zotero To GROK Codex Project Page

Our research lab (GROK Lab, University of Iowa) maintains a wiki where we post commentary about articles we read, but its always been a pain to manually enter citation info into the wiki. I've created an extension to Zotero to export a Zotero item directly to a page in our wiki. I think this will be a good way to introduce our students to Zotero, its functionality, and possibilities.

Hi Everyone:
I am new to the list and also to wikieducator. I have been using zotero for quite sometime now and I have found that to be very useful. If there is a possiblity of exporting zotero collections to wiki articles, it will be of great use.
Yours truly,
M.D.Muthukumaraswamy

Hi Randy,
Downloaded Zotero and am currently viewing the tour..It seems to be a great tool..specially with the collaborative sharing of resources tool.
Thank you so much for sharing it with us,

Hi Everyone,

I've come across Zotero - a Firefox download for adding, storing and searching bibliographical references - a tool for up and coming scholars and their ilk (you know I'm taking a Masters degree!).

Has anyone had any experience with it? - www.zotero.org

On another note, here's an interesting post on their site - http://www.zotero.org/blog/zotero-and-the-internet-archive-join-forces/
- they've joined forces with the Internet Archive. I'm wondering if there's something we can do with WikiEducator (maybe drawing in profs and students to use WikiEd, and reference and store OER materials, etc. Or, something collaborative....

Awaiting your input...

- Randy
