Dá para gerar mapa?

Olá, Éder! Para ilustrar a introdução de Lista do patrimônio histórico na Bahia, eu tinha pensado em uma mapa dos municípios em que estão bens tombados pelo IPHAN. Acho que aqui seria a forma para gerar pelo Wikidata, contudo não sei como gerar o mapa e inseri-lo na lista. Sabe como? Tem como ajudar nisso, por favor?

Wiki Loves Bahia: Boletim quinzenal | Outubro - nona edição

Museu de Arte Moderna da Bahia.

Parceria GLAM com o Museu de Arte Moderna da Bahia
O Museu de Arte Moderna da Bahia (MAM-BA) é o primeiro parceiro do Wiki Movimento Brasil no contexto do Wiki Loves Bahia! Localizado no Solar do Unhão, um sítio histórico do século XVIII, às margens da Baía de Todos os Santos em Salvador, o Museu de Arte Moderna da Bahia foi fundado no início da década de 1960. O projeto de restauração do Solar é da arquiteta Lina Bo Bardi, cuja intenção foi criar um espaço vivo, um museu-escola que unisse a arte moderna e a arte popular. O MAM-BA possui um acervo de arte moderna e contemporânea composto por mais de 1200 itens, dentre os quais destacam-se obras de Alfredo Volpi, Candido Portinari, Carybé, Hansen Bahia, Tarsila do Amaral, Tomie Ohtake e Tunga.
Conheça a iniciativa GLAM do Museu de Arte Moderna da Bahia e contribua! Assine a página e contribua com a coordenação da parceria, que envolverá o carregamento de obras e uma missão fotográfica, já em andamento.

Wiki Loves Monuments 2021 tem premiação especial para os monumentos da Bahia

Até o final do mês de outubro acontece o Wiki Loves Monuments Brasil. Neste ano, o concurso fotográfico tem uma categoria especial para premiar a melhor imagem de monumento do estado da Bahia. A proposta desta categoria é incentivar que pessoas fotografem os monumentos da Bahia e disponibilizem essas imagens sob licenças livres no Wikimedia Commons, permitindo que sejam amplamente compartilhadas e reutilizadas. Dessa forma ampliaremos também a visibilidade do Patrimônio Histórico e Cultura do estado da Bahia. Veja como participar aqui.

Editatona Biomas da Bahia
No dia 22 de outubro às 14 horas acontecerá a penúltima editatona do Wiki Loves Bahia. A Editatona Biomas da Bahia será realizada em formato de webinar via YouTube com a participação do Biólogo e Prof. Dr. Jomar Jardim do Centro de Formação em Ciências Agroflorestais da Universidade Federal do Sul da Bahia, Campus Jorge Amado (CFCAF/UFSB. O convidado abordará uma das principais lacunas relacionadas aos Biomas da Bahia nos projetos Wikimedia: a flora baiana. Em seguida, ocorrerá a maratona de edição via Google Meet. A inscrição para o evento pode ser realizada através do Outreach Dashboard. Inscreva-se aqui e nos ajude a preencher mais essa lacuna!
