It was so nice to see a summary of all our hard work. I shared your doubt going in about Wikipedia and Flickr but found the project truly worthwhile and valuable! I hope we find out information on Carey Chapman!

To Richard McCoy and Jenny Mikulay I can only say thank you for your creative, insightful and ground-breaking use of social- and new-media and the Wikipedia platform for information sharing and access. Thanks to you, I am enormously proud of the new directions my profession is taking in the networked 21st century! Cheers!

The WSPA project is a great example of how social media can be used for the documentation and care of public art as well as how wikis, Flickr and other sites can be used for courses focusing on preservation and art. I hope the WSPA project continues to be successful and grows to include public art across the US. I also hope it inspires many other similar projects.

Richard, teaching this class with you was a blast.
