Natalie Green ( User:Petropoxy (Lithoderm Proxy) has been Wikipedian in Residence at the Cincinnati Art Museum (CAM) since February 2022. The project announcement can be found here.
The project aims to add high quality articles to Wikipedia relating to the CAM's collection and history, and to do so in a way that bridges gaps in Wikipedia's coverage. This has been a small, targeted project, focusing on depth rather than breadth in order to make full use of the CAM's specialized resources and expertise.
The basic workflow of the project has been as follows:
Dr. Ainsley M. Cameron, curator of South Asian Art, Islamic Art and Antiquities, provided advice and references that were instrumental in figuring out how to diversify the targeted articles in a way that could use CAM's resources to help plug gaps in Wikipedia's coverage of non-western art.
So far five articles, four categories, and two navigational templates have been added to Wikipedia as a result of this project. Seven additional articles have been improved with images and sources.
So far thirty two images, four books, and one category have been added to Wikimedia commons as a result of this project.
