This is already attracting new editors to Wikipedia. Show me the initiative which is bringing them into Wikidata similarly.

Hi Andy,
if each of these artworks had a Wikidata item, lists could be generated as a "by-product", in addition to all the possible queries etc.
Putting data into templates to show on Wikipedia pages is neither vegetable, animal, or mineral. The worst solution to store this data, IMHO, in 2015.
Cheers, Magnus

We need more articles listing public art in United Kingdom counties, cities or towns.
I've written a blog post about how to compile them:

and would be grateful if you would all assist, and ask others to do so.
Once a page is created, adding a row should be something a novice an easily do. More experienced Wikipedians can help with tidying up formatting, adding references, and so on. As well as adding artworks known to you, of course!
