Might they also be interested in submitting something to the WikiJournal of
humanities? I published a blog about the WikiJournals on Saturday which
other Wikimedians might be interested in if they've not seen it yet.

Hello all,
Hope you're having a good Wednesday. I'm currently working with the
Dumfries Historic Buildings Trust on the Dumfries Stonecarving Project,
(there was a wee blog about this last year:
https://blog.wikimedia.org.uk/2018/11/green-men-gargoyles-the-dumfries-ston…)
and we're now moving toward the next phase. This will include volunteer
groups carrying out research, writing articles about notable local
subjects, and integrating some of the pictures that have been taken into
the encyclopedia.
As well as articles which pertain to local history and places, my feeling
is that there may well be a range of other articles relating to
architecture, etc, which might be usefully incorporated into a worklist for
one of the editathons which will form a part of this next phase.
I wondered if there were any wikimedians on this list with an interest in
architecture/ stonecarving who might be interested in helping me to explore
this? I'd love to have a chat some time. (Please do email me direct rather
than on-list, just for the sake of everyone's inboxes)
All the best
Sara
