Hola Rubén,

en hora buena! How long will you stay and how many hours.

Concerning the licensing process, we recommend the institutions to open an account on their name and have it verified (link to German WP article how to do it & in more general terms in English). After that procedure the institution is able to claim that they are in the position to upload and license their data files. Anyway this is what we believe. As Liam said the GLAM Wiki tool set is the best option for bulk uploads as soon as the data is linked to more specific metadata to each file, which is certainly the case in a museum.

Please feel free to come back for more information, when you like.

Hello Sara!

Thanks for your welcome!. That´s right, most of the images aren´t in
public domain (mainly they are modern pictures, for example of pieces)
so my intention is to upload them with an OTRS permission; what do you
think, is it correct?.

Best,

>> Hello everyone!
>>
>> From yesterday until January 7, 2016, Wikimedia Spain enters three
>> state museums, the Museum of Romanticism, the Museo del Traje (Costume
>> Museum) and the National Archaeological Museum, where I´ll work as
>> wikipedian in residence.
>>
>> Besides promoting the Wikimedia projects in the three institutions, it
>> will be carried out various activities open to the public, like
>> edit-a-thons and training sessions, aimed to explain how Wikipedia
>> works and generate content related to the museums and their
>> collections: the nineteenth century in Spain, fashion, ethnography and
>> archeology. Another highlight will be the donation of multimedia files
>> (documents, pictures or recordings) under a free license to Wikimedia
>> Commons, in order to illustrate contents of the various Wikimedia
>> projects.
>>
>> The Museum of Romanticism has cataloged more than 16,000 museum
>> pieces. It offers collections of paintings, miniatures, furniture,
>> decorative arts, prints, drawings and photographs collections, which
>> offer a broad panorama of the arts during the Romantic era in Spain.
>> The Costume Museum has collections dedicated to fashion, costumes and
>> ethnography, with a collection of over 170,000 pieces and documents;
>> these collections date from the Middle Ages to the contemporary
>> fashion of Spain. The National Archaeological Museum is, since 1867,
>> the leading Spanish institution in the preservation of historical
>> pieces. Its permanent collection includes over 15,000 items from
>> Prehistory, Early history, Roman Spain, Greece, Egypt and the Near
>> East, Middle Ages and Modern Age.
>>
>> In relation to the uploading of files to Wikimedia Commons, what tool
>> do you recommend me to use? (their files are not in public domain).
>>
>> Best,
>>
