More than 130 new articles about insects
The Museum of Natural History of North Macedonia
On 12 February 2020, GLAM Macedonia signed an agreement for collaboration with the Museum of Natural History of North Macedonia. WiR started their job. But in March, when the quarantine was declared, the Wikipedian in Residence continued to work from home, as he managed to get materials from the Museum to work on. Also, materials were shared with other active Wikipedians, who were willing to help in creating new articles about the insects.
GLAM activities haven't stop as many of the activities were held online. The collaboration with the Museum of Natural History of North Macedonia resulted with more than 130 created and improved articles about insects in North Macedonia. There are several documents get form the Museum which has to be added as references in the articles.
Unfortunately, WiR's are not allowed to have off line activities this time. Wiki Tours, workshops, edit-a-thons and editing together were dropped this time.
