Wiki Mazarat
Wiki Mazarat, also known informally within the movement as Wiki Shrines or Wiki Sanctuaries, is a campaign initiated by Iraqi Wikimedians in August 2022 with the purpose of documenting and promoting the high value shrines and sanctuaries in Iraq, The Middle East and all around the world, then enriching that content on various Wikimedia projects. We do this by forming collaborations with other like-minded organizations, giving talks at universities and other organizations, and working to develop greater access to the GLAM related entities for Wikipedians, among many others.
