User:Simonella911/Heritage studies and ICT 2020-2021

I am a student enrolled at the University of Bergamo, attending the first year of Planning and Management of Tourism Systems Master Course. I have been contributing to Wikipedia within the project named GLAM/UNIBG/Heritage studies and ICT, which is aimed at contributing to some articles on Wikipedia and related projects about municipalities and heritage.

Description of the contribution
I have participated actively in the Community enriching, editing and translating information about the territory of Trapani and its heritage. Therefore, I added various information, pictures and sources, collaborating with stakeholders for the release in an open licence of their pictures and colleagues in order to have a check of their works.

Wikipedia (Italian version)
Regarding my town, Trapani, a well structered article was presented, so I added some missing information about transport, museum, movies that chose the town for their scenes and a part related to the ancien tradition of coral, the motor of ancient economy and still a tradition.

For what concerns the heritage I have chosen the church of Saint Pietro and the typical sicilian pastry: cannolo both in the Italian and English version.

Wikipedia (English version)
I wanted to leave a significant mark for tourist coming in Trapani since Wikipedia is a powerful source of information nowadays and the article of this page was poor, so I decided to improve it according to Italian version used as source of translation

My contributions:

Trapani

As I worked on the Italian version of Cannoli, I decided to check also the English version of it and I translate my contribution

Cannoli

Other minor changes
To help the English revision work of my collegues I also added some words in these articles,

Wikimedia Commons
I added three photos on Wikimedia Commons and here you can find the links:

 * https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:FOTO_Statua_san_Pietro.jpg

I asked to the owner of the building (the parish of the church) to share with me his pictures, asking him (and to Wikipedia) the permission to upload them.

Reuse of pictures that are not mine
I also reused a photo already present on Wikimedia Commons after checking the licences. used this picture as it was related to the part that I enriched

Use of sources
Since the Wikipedia project is based on reliable sources, which help building credibility, I put the references I used at the bottom page or in the notes, such as books or websites.

I respected the copyright license, for this reason no sentence or paragraph was copied or pasted; everything was the result of reworking.

OpenStreetMap
In the aim of this exam, I started contributing to OpenStreetMap and Umap 3 years ago. The map showed in umap is the resault of what in my opinion is extremily important and unique in every municipality of the district. It has been the resault of weeks of work with more than 100 place marked. Periodically I upload content even on openstreetmap as my contributions were made mostly when I started to editing. https://umap.openstreetmap.fr/it/map/trapani-heritage-e-turismo_285412#11/37.9296/12.8445. These days I added and provide information about the position and opening hours of a pizzeria, an hotel, I correct the name of a bar that became a restaurant and fixed the name of a tabacco shop and a saloon.

Discussion pages
I learnt the importance of this page at the last moment, when some volounters checked my work and contacted me to give me some feedback. From that moment I started to always present on the discussion page my work before to start to edit

Involvement of stakeholders meetings:
I contacted personally and then by email the priest of the church I was working at, to get some information and asking for an authorization for the photos uploads.

I contacted by email another priest to enriche another article. I did not receive its response but as I understood how to do, I am going to improve bettter and better article that concerns my culture. I have only to wait for his answer.

Feedback
I tried to contribute as much as possible even if I is not very easy to write in a non promotional way. Surely, I will continue doing it in the future because I consider it very useful both from the point of view of the reader, who acquires more knowledge, and from the point of view of the person who edits, since he/she must get informed and rework what he/she reads.

It was not an easy task to accomplish because editing on the Internet has a number of implications to consider, such as getting reliable sources or writing in a neutral way, not promoting anything.
