American Iris Society (AIS) Region 16 2010 Spring Report By Kate Brewitt, AIS Region 16 RVP Greetings to all CIS members! American Iris Society (AIS) WIKI From Bob Pries – AIS Public Relations and Marketing We are laying the foundations of an Iris Encyclopedia for the AIS website. It will make the American Iris Society THE place to go for iris information on the internet. It will contain an illustrated checklist and more. But it will take the efforts of our members to make it all it can be. If you would like to be a founding father or mother of this monumental project, contact robertpries@embarqmail.com. What would you be doing? We have 65,000 cultivars and need to create a page for each with its registration information. Each cultivar page can accommodate 20 pictures but just having one or two for each would be great for the release to the world on the AIS website. If you can type, paste, or upload pictures, you can help. At present our team of 15 active docents has uploaded 4,000 pages in two months. If we had a hundred docents and each could put up fifty or more entries we would be well on our way. Hybridizers, this is your chance to make sure your irises will be seen when the wiki opens. Many of you are familiar with the wiki format. The famous Wikipedia is an online reference used by young and old alike. The AIS Iris Encyclopedia is the same type of format. It will always be growing and improving, but if you would like to be a founder now is your chance before it appears on the AIS website. Do it now!!
