Plan: collecting information about artworks that our museums have about other Nordic countries and based on that assembling a set of virtual exhibitions.

Reasoning:

• testing GLAM cooperation between Nordic countries by assembling something cool that would be very hard to do without cooperation
• providing a good reason for museums to cooperate with us and showing them why Wikipedia is their friend (especially important for countries with no GLAM program so far to get it started there)
• getting media & public attention to the content we have collected and test out new ways to showcase our content

Process:

• collecting the initial information (what museums might be involved, how many files about each country we might get to Commons) and send it to the other partners involved
• based on that determining the countries that participate in this and selecting the number of images we'll try to collect (and setting special focus... if needed)
• getting as many files as possible to Wikimedia Commons (+ making sure we have something about the added paintings in Wikidata and will not forget to report at least once a month about the progress to other partners)
• writing the introductory texts, translating them and assembling something for the media
• having the results up

Example:

• https://et.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vikipeedia:GLAM/Europeana_1914-18/EN
• 47 works from the collections of Tartu Art Museum and Art Museum of Estonia from the period of WWI
• this virtual exhibition involves introductory text, image gallery, and space for comments

Expected participants: Estonia, Latvia, Finland, Sweden, Norway, Denmark, and Iceland
Please add the names of the people who would be doing it!

Expected result: a set of virtual exhibitions like "Painting about Estonia in the collections of other Nordic countries" for every country involved with around 60-70 images each. That means every participant must get on average 60-70 images about other countries - if someone gets less, then there have to be countries, that get more to compensate for the difference.
