I am wondering what kind of heritage these people are building in heritage
labs!!
Even the theme says post colonial India!!
Looks like they have nothing to do with our history, culture, heritage of
thousands of years.
Probably, they still want to remain in the colonial India heritage. That
can't even say post independence activities.
Shameful.
And Wikipedia is supporting it in the name of spreading knowledge!!

Hello everyone,
The Heritage Lab <https://www.theheritagelab.in/culture-events/> is
organizing two Wiki contests
<https://www.theheritagelab.in/world-heritage-week-contest-monuments-museums/> in
the month of November on the occasion of World Heritage Week and Wiki Asian
Month.
First contest is an edit-a-thon where open access content from GLAMs would
be uploaded on Wikimedia Commons with relevant data to improve the
accessibility of these images.
The second contest is where people can share the stories of visiting
museums. It can be a photo essay, illustration, etc. The submissions in
this contest will be uploaded on Commons and the best entries from them
will be rewarded.
We have exciting prizes for the winners so we look forward to your active
participation in both these events.
Further, we have also opened applications for the second edition of Open
Knowledge Fellowship
<https://www.theheritagelab.in/open-knowledge-museums-india/> where we
host a cohort of fellows to research and create new knowledge about Indian
art and cultural heritage and contribute the same to Wikimedia projects.
Please pass on the word to the people who would be interested in being a
part of this.
Thanks and Regards,
Arunesh Varade
on behalf of The Heritage Lab
