User:Lucy Patterson (WMDE)/sandbox/Wikiproject Städel Museum – Highlights of the Collection
Project Background, Aim and Scope
editThe Städel Museum has more than 24,000 works of art in the public domain (i.e., works of art no longer under copyright protection) and has made them available for download free of charge via the Digital Collection. These images are in the public domain and may be downloaded, edited, remixed, shared, reproduced in any format, and used for any purpose. The aim of this service is to make the Städel collection available to the public and to promote the public enjoyment of shared cultural assets.
After the Städel Museum has already carried out several individual uploads to Wikimedia, we decided, in exchange with Wikimedia Deutschland, to carry out a publicly documented collective upload of some highlight works from our collection within the framework of this WikiProject. The aim of the project is therefore to
- achieve an easier maintenance of the metadata by modeling the object metadata on Wikidata and linking the Wikidata items to the files on Wikimedia Commons
- provide a publicly accessible and visible basis for future uploads
- create an example of how to use our API that other users can build upon
- to disclose our motivation and document progress.

Department - we would have to create wikidata items for museum departments... would this make the works more findable?
