Proposal for
Archive of Archives
, representation of GLAM topics

Partly in the light of
d:Wikidata:Requests for comment/Notability policy reform
, and given that this is already for several years a wiki-in-search-of-purpose (other than the excellent newsletter!), I would like to propose one.
We need a place to represent GLAM topics in archives/collections/catalogs, that don't necessarily have external identifiers or meet Wikipedia standards of notability, but that are vitally useful for outreach and our partnerships with under-resourced cultural institutions. This proposal would build on the
m:Wikispore Basic
concept, and on the following grant:
m:Grants:Programs/Wikimedia Community Fund/Rapid Fund/Wikidata-ArchivesSpace GLAM plugin (ID: 23096591)
. I've also submitted to present about this idea at the upcoming Wikimania in July 2026.

I'm not sure what you mean about characterizing this wiki as in need of purpose, but I support your porposal.

Thanks, I just meant that there were perhaps more opportunities to differentiate further beyond something that looks like a more specialized Meta-Wiki.

You generally have good intentions and are a smart and valued member of the community, so I personally trust your judgement.
