What problem does this solve?[edit]

There are historical images of different cultures and countries, but grouping them based on year, ethnicity, etc., is missing in Wikipedia.

What is the solution?[edit]

It would be a great idea to group all such historic documents and images arranged like an online museum. This could be a great open knowledge platform.

General considerations[edit]

Some online projects are already working on visualizing the content of Wikipedia, like Histropedia.
