There was this weird idea, that we should use this Nordic mailing list bit more often. So I'll leave some comments on the following topics: lists about vital articles, first (?) joint GLAM project, science photography competition, and next Nordic meeting.
*Vital articles about Nordic countries* * Eesti1000: https://et.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vikipeedia:Eesti_1000 * it still needs some fixes (like some articles might be replaced), but it is mostly ready * here you might see the first comparison of wikis on how well do they cover Estonian topics: https://et.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vikipeedia:Eesti_1000/Tabel (it was assembled on a hurry on Sunday to have something to show so this is just a draft version, but you can get some general idea on how well your wiki is covering the Estonian topics) * you are all welcomed to assemble similar lists about your countries.
*GLAM project* * During the first half of 2019, there should be formed a set of virtual exhibitions as part of a joint GLAM project. That is: we are collecting information about artworks that our museums have about other Nordic countries. * At a moment the people involved are Astrid (Norway), Axel (Sweden), Edgars (Latvia), Ivo & Merli (Estonia), Minna (Finland), Salvor (Iceland), and Steen (Denmark). If someone wants to learn more about it or join the project, then please contact the relevant people.
*Science photo competition* * http://www.wikisciencecompetition.org/ * Next competition is in November 2019 (i.e. uploading images in November, selecting the local winners in December and selecting the international winners in January-February) * It is also possible to participate as a goup of countries.
*Next Nordic wikimeetup* * Likely to take place in Tartu, Estonia
