The Data Management Plan was produced after the end of the research project to analyse the data produced by the research and to identify ways to improve its permanent archiving (use of repositories which can guarantee long term archiving and provide metadata, and presence of a DOI) and facilitate the reuse of its content (licenses, open and standard formats, uploads on Wikidata).
The Data Management Plan also looked at the specific relevance of the content produced by the research, to highlight a selection of content which can be particularly important to disseminate and make accessible.

needs postproduction to make it available It is probably more reasonable to only keep the transcripts and to erase the audio |

*Asking the authorization to put the images on Wikimedia Commons
!! challenges: images inclusing contemporary artwork (copyrighted): artists need to provide their authorisation |
Can present the work of artists and art spaces

Where content has been stored
| Adventages | Disadventages | |
|---|---|---|
| Website | Design, visualisations | It doesn't guarantee permanent archiving
It doesn't have a DOI It is necessary and important to backup the data and make them available on other repositories |
| Oral History Archive | Owned by ETH.
Non profit repository managed by a large institution. It allows access to the sources and citation. Thematic archive. |
Content from the project uploaded to the Oral History Archive has not been released with an open license (but it can be viewed). |
| Zenodo | It is the repository used and recommended by the School of art and design of Luzern
It guarantees permanent archiving |
It is difficult to browse data on Zenodo
It is important to create a community on Zenodo to connect different articles, content to the project and find them more easily The community on Zenodo can be linked to the Wikidata item of the research project and can be added on the project website |
| GitHub | Useful repository for code and datasets
Very used by designers. |
Proprietary tools (owned by Microsoft)
During the GLAMHack we used a personal account; it would be better to use an institutional account Important to backup the data on Zenodo and generate a DOI |
| GitLab | Open non commercial tool
There is an account owned by the School of art and design of Luzern. Useful repository for code and datasets |
Difficult to access and use the institutional account
Important to backup the data on Zenodo and generate a DOI |
| Wikidata | Dissemination of data
Data can be updated by the communities (including owners of the art spaces and art initiatives). Data can be connected to other data (linked open data). Data from Switzerland can be visualised and analysed, combined with data from other countries. The research, its publication and dataset can be linked to the data as a source or reference. |
It is important to keep copy of the data produced by the research in an external platform which can guarantee permanent archiving and provide a DOI
Data on Wikidata can be erased and it is important to follow the rules of the online communities. Data about people can present specific challenges. Georeferenced data produced in Switzerland are not interoperable with Wikidata and OpenStreetMap, and they need to be converted. |
| Wikipedia | Content from the research can enrich articles related to art history in Switzerland, artist-run initiatives
The research can contribute to better define the terminology, to update the biography and to enrich data |
Not all art initiatives can have an article on Wikipedia.
Sometimes the terminology is not precise and it is not easy to change the name of an existing article. The are not many people active in the fields of art, art system and artists initiatives on Wikipedia; this makes it a bit more complicated to contribute and it is important to do it with proper sources and good quality contributions. |
| OpenStreetMap | Data about art spaces can be updated on OpenStreetMap
Data of OpenStreetMap can be connected to Wikidata |
Georeferenced data produced in Switzerland are not interoperable with Wikidata and OpenStreetMap, and they need to be converted. |
