This is a collaboration with Aboa Vetus & Ars Nova. The goal is to display the interconnections of the museum collections with the help of Wikidocumentaries. New developments will be made available for all users.

The museum is located in a building that replaced a wealthy and central part of medieval Turku in Finland. Part of the museum is focused on archaeology of the site, while the other part focuses on contemporary art.

Objectives

  • Display information about archaeological finds, and the history of the houses and plots where they were found, and the people who lived there.
  • Find ways to overcome the scope limitations of the Wikimedia projects. Notability becomes an issue with historical biographies. The granularity of archaeological finds challenges the scope of Wikidata.
  • Contribute to open knowledge as much as possible.
  • Serve museum visitors onsite and online.

Possible data management scenarios

  • Use Wikimedia projects as much as possible
  • Develop an complementary or alternative data storage or outlet to be able to control oneself: Google Sheets or Wikibase. The data solution should be scalable and/or replicable. The Wikibase alternative could be made for this project or as a shared one (for example Wikidocumentaries Wikibase or a local history Wikibase)
