Hi Tomasz,
great that you're improving on the lists.
I know nothing about formal negotiations or any financial cooperation currently with Europeana, so I am afraid that this would be a rumour.
With kind regards,
Lodewijk

Hey all, I have been wondering for some time about a tool which could be used for adding geographic coordinates to the list of monuments in a country.
Some users on the Polish Wikipedia have already started adding coordinates to monuments located near their locations (example: < http://pl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedysta:Tommy_Jantarek/Zabytki_wielkopolski
).
Answering their question about what tool should be used, I told them to use the famous GeoLocator http://tools.freeside.sk/geolocator/geolocator.html which has been used both on the Polish Wikipedia as well as on the Commons.
What tool do you use? Are there any other, better suitable tools to be used?
Another question is about the possibility of having a pan-European sponsorship or patronage from a European (not only from the European Union) organisation or institution.
It has been suggested to me that we may try getting sponsorship or patronage from Europeana http://www.europeana.eu/portal/ and today I have been leaked that indeed we have gained sponsorship from that organisation; however I can't find any information about that in the archives, so that's maybe a behind-the-scenes activity? Any upcoming press releases of which I haven't been told? :-)
Regards,
Tomasz Kozłowski | [[user:odder]]
