== Start-up of the wiki ==

The Local History Wiki was established between 2007 and 2008 by The Norwegian Institute of Local History. The wiki started up in cooperation with some of the administrators of Wikipedia.

The institute had several motivations. On the one hand, we had an encyclopaedia, or a dictionary, with useful terms for historians, which was published in print and needed supplementing. On the other hand, we saw a need for gathering similar local history sites under one roof. In addition, we saw an opportunity for letting historians “export” encyclopaedic content from their parish histories to the wiki, in order to cultivate the narrative, the reading function of these books.

== Special features ==

For the most part, The Local History Wiki consists of encyclopaedic articles. In addition, we have a source repository consisting of personal stories, interviews, letters and so forth. To help our contributors in the writing process, we also have counselling articles. Furthermore, we have bibliographies and overviews covering different kinds of literature and sources. Our images are stored within the wiki, not on an external platform, like Wikimedia Commons.

== Nothing is too small ==

Even though the theme – and the perspective – is local and regional history, topics of national interest are also welcome, as the global, national, regional and local levels influence each other mutually. That said, our policy is that no subject is too small or insignificant for the wiki, if sources – written or oral – are available.

To be able to write about a baby who died three days old or about a long-gone weaver, you need to use primary sources. We do not only permit original research, we encourage it. In Norway, many historical sources are digitized, the greatest actors being the National Library, the National Archives and the Digital Museum. In the wiki, we use unique identifiers to link to these sources, and we have made it easy for them to link back to the wiki.

== Let everyone join as contributors! ==

The wiki is an arena for co-creation and cooperation. The users may co-write one specific article, or the cooperation may be expanded to a collection of articles, a project and even the whole wiki. Many of our projects have focused on the wiki infrastructure, like entering coordinates in articles and replacing names of administrative units due to municipal reforms.

Ideally, “everyone” should participate as content providers, for the many voices to be represented. Unfortunately, we are not there yet. As part of a research project about our wiki, a survey was carried out among all contributors registered by 2018. Out of 740 respondents three quarters were male.

Furthermore, we organize cooperation events each month and even more extensive projects to draw attention to areas with weak coverage. This year our overall focus has been on diversity and inclusion. This applies both for the content and the user side.

The wiki is not just a collection of material, but also a community. All articles and images have connected discussion pages. And since wiki writing is a collective matter, you may need “a little help from your friends”. Be it on the topic, the sources or linguistic issues.
