==Search for collaborators==
For the project «Archeowiki - new "archaeologists" in Lombardia - virtual
and real paths» we are searching for collaborators. <br />
You might remember that Archeowiki is a project for archaelogisy
alphabetization, aiming to appraise and distribute through Wikipedia with a
Creative Common license the contents created by cultural institutions.
Moreover, we want to engage new categories of people in the fruition of the
lesser known archaelological heritage in Lombardia, both putting online
cultural content and letting people directly see the findings, exploiting
“Wikigite” (wikitrips).

assist visitors, answering their questions about Wikipedia, helping them to
retrieve information about the visited collections (e.g., photographs), in
order to be able to improve the articles of Wikipedia about archaeology in
general and the specific collections visited.}}
