Thank you for your attention, Asaf.

I am contacting them for better release but they seem very busy for the release. From the conversation with them, I think they need some help from some experts from GLAM-WIKI fellows of Wikimedia movement for continuing the opening and long term success. I found the release lacks some important meta data in my thought, for example the location of the heritage, and they do not understand Dublin Core and its extension for the museums. Korean Wikimedians will start to draft our opinion for better sharing. I hope we could borrow some wisdom who have the experience to lead a successful museum information releasing.

These are wonderful news, Cheol! Thanks for sharing them.

Are you or any other Wikipedians in touch with them at all? If not, it might be a good time to get in touch, congratulate them on this decision, and describe the ways the Wikimedia community (not just in Korea!) can help get more exposure for Korean heritage and art via articles and translations, and also (perhaps) to contribute corrections to metadata, photo captions, etc.

Cheers,

Asaf
