Hi Jørund,
Any update? I wonder what you decided about what to include in the contest.
I included the European mailinglist. Maybe someone can assist you with
converting your lists.

Some good
news - we have gotten the db-dumps from the directorate.
We have converted them to lists:
https://secure.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/no/wiki/Wikipedia:Wiki_Loves_Monumen…
Unfortunately this format is not compatible with the system we're
using in most countries. We're using a template based structured list
system to maintain the lists in most wikiedia's. The system is
explained at
https://secure.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/wiki/Commons:Wiki_Loves_Monu…
and I already added a lot of countries at
https://secure.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/wiki/Commons:Wiki_Loves_Monu…
Thanks a lot for looking into it. We should manage to make structured
lists.
These
lists now contain 10 000 monuments in Norway. We have excluded
archaeological sites (which are included in the Norwegian term
kulturminne), so the lists more or less corresponds to what one
would consider monuments in other european countries.
You can include the
archaeological sites too if you like. In the
Netherlands some "Rijksmonumenten" are actually just sites. You
started with 115000 monuments. What's the difference?
Here is a list
containing different categories and corresponding
number of objects:
https://secure.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/no/wiki/Bruker:H@r@ld/WLM
Here are some major categories:
site of inhabitance / site of activity: 23971
tomb: 20295
site of coal production: 15171
Almost any trace of human activity before 1537 is automatically
protected as cultural heritage in Norway. Some of these might appear
just as a hole in the ground made for hunting on a photograph. :)
But the decision is not final, we are able to include more categories.
You got the lists. You got a prize. That's
already a lot. Do you have
some sort of website? I would recommend you browse through
https://secure.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/wiki/Commons:Wiki_Loves_Monu…
, it contains a lot of information.
The website is in the making. Please tell me if there is any urgent
info you need about the Norwegian WLM.
Please
take a look at the lists and tell me if there is anything
that we should do with them.
Convert them to structured lists. Drop by in
#wikilovesmonuments on
Freenode if you need some assistance with this.
I'll have the one responsible for conversion from db-dump to list look
into it.
Regards,
Jørund
