By the way, Euroregions often have fonds for cross border activities
with regard to cultural affairs. Maybe nice for WLM conventions in
border regions. As far as I know the Euregion where I live in (EUREGIO
Gronau) has problems to spend its money for those cultural activities
including Germans and Dutch.
Kind regards

I'm sorry for being a little behind on this project.
Do we have or do we need a clear definition of
what "monunments" are? Apparently memorial stones,
statues, and buildings. But only man-made things?
Or also remarkable trees and cliffs? Should also
entire gardens or cities be included in the lists?
Is the castle of Versailles one monument or a
large system of many monuments? Is there a lower
limit for how insignificant things can be included?
Do we include individual milestones? (I'm referring
to actual milestones, by the roadside.) Or is
there some "notability" requirement?
Do we need a standard way to indicate types
of monuments? Some sort of ontology or
controlled vocabulary? Do heritage instutitions
already have a classification that we can reuse?
Are existing categories on Commons sufficient?
Should each monument have its own category
on Commons? If it is a monument, I guess we
can expect to get more than one photo of it.
Is there a standard way to add geo coordinates
and object type to categories on Commons?
