Dear All,
Wiki World Heritage UG is excited to share with you the details of a new video contest
related to UNESCO Intangible Cultural Heritage.
Items listed as UNESCO Intangible Cultural Heritage are very important as they represent
our traditions, ethnic lifestyles, and culture. Despite this importance, they are less
documented than tangible heritage, and even when documented they are documented in a
format that doesn't reflect a clear idea of it(mainly text).
Because videos are very good to describe intangible heritage and also because they are
very important as a format to be uploaded to Commons and used in Wikipedia, the Wiki World
Heritage UG is organizing during October and November a video contest with the theme
Traditional craftsmanship: crafts inscribed by the UNESCO as Intangible Cultural Heritage
of Humanity.
The contest aims to collect videos showing different skills and crafts from all over the
world and use these videos on Wikipedia.
You can visit the campaign page on Commons where you can find more details and upload
videos:
