The document describes Wikimania 2016 which was hosted in the village of Esino Lario, Italy. This marked the first time Wikimania took place in an entire village rather than a university or cultural center in a large city as had been done in previous years. The village of Esino Lario and surrounding areas provided accommodations, meeting spaces, and venues throughout the town for Wikimania attendees.

Presentation "The role of Wikipedia and its community in cultural production and in supporting the heritage sector " by Iolanda Pensa for the conference "Heritage Commons: Towards a participative heritage governance in the third millennium”, session "Digital technology as an enabler, for new narratives of heritage, new ways of supporting heritage as a collective resource, and new means of increasing access to heritage and developing new audiences”, Royal Palace of the Venaria Reale, Turin, Italy, 24 settembre 2014.
With 500 million readers, 30 million articles in 280 languages and around 80,000 contributors, Wikipedia is a powerful and existing tool to increase access to heritage and to support heritage as a collective resource. Wikipedia online communities are already active in creating encyclopedic knowledge for everyone: they produce texts, images and translations, they respect copyright, they support institutions in providing open content for Wikipedia, and they have engaged with the contest Wiki Loves Monuments over 15’000 participants in 50 countries to produce 900,000 images documenting cultural heritage. Wikipedia recognizes the value of culture and it is an ally in heritage development; governments and institutions can play a key role in facilitating volunteer contributions with authorizations and freedom of panorama, and in acknowledging the value of this active citizenship supporting the heritage sector.

Open access, Creative Commons e Wikipedia per le istituzioni culturali
Sempre più musei, archivi e biblioteche nel mondo aprono i loro contenuti a vantaggio dei cittadini, rendendo disponibili le riproduzioni digitali delle loro collezioni in pubblico dominio e rilasciando la loro produzione di ricerca e materiali educativi con licenze libere. Questa presentazione raconta il progetto Empowering Italian GLAMs che ha invitato nel 2022-2024 tutti i musei italiani nell’adottare l’open access e mostra una serie di visualizzazioni che permettono di osservare il patrimonio e le istituzioni culturali italiane sui progetti Wikimedia e in particolare su Wikidata e Wikimedia Commons.
Iolanda Pensa, Wikimedia projects and OpenStreetMap as an Open Research Infrastructure, 03 February 2024, FOSDEM, Bruxelles, CC BY-SA 4.0
The Wikimedia and OpenStreetMap projects are an existing free software infrastructure that already produces citizen science and can be used by researchers to share and co-produce data and to produce - and reproduce - the results of research. The presentation specifically refers to the potential of data related to cultural heritage for studies in the humanities and in particular in museology, art, art history and history of architecture.
