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
