Link to the Wikimedia article about the city/town and heritage
I created my user page Reb1998 both on Wikipedia and Wikimedia Commons, providing a description of this assignment and then I registered on the Wikimedia Dashboard. I made a contribution to four voices:
Description of the contribution
I decided to work on the article of my municipality Grassobbio. In the Italian page I added the paragraph Infrastrutture e trasporti, some information about Capannelle in the section Frazioni and the opening hours of the market day, providing references and links. Finally, I inserted the missing citations in the already existing parts of Storia and Luoghi di interesse. Then I made a translation of the paragraphs Places of interest and Infrastructure and transport in the English version of the page, adding citations and links. I updated also the infobox: population number and the source, the new mayor, ISTAT code and the Patron with the Saint day.
As far as the article about heritage is concerned, I chose to create a new Italian voice about Santuario di Santa Maria Assunta, located in the oratory of Grassobbio, together with my colleague Sofia Vavassori (Sof1998). For convenience, we wrote the whole page on Sofia’s sandbox but we divided the content equally, anyway we helped each other during the writing. My part regards the following paragraphs: template of the religious building, architettura, arte, storia di Gioacchino e Anna, and Annunciazione with the respective links and citations (if it is useful for the evaluation, I copied it in my Italian sandbox https://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Utente:Reb1998/Sandbox). We decided also to create the English page of the sanctuary on my sandbox, using the same methodology of dividing content and cooperate. In this case I translated the first part regarding the location, history, Death of Mary and Assumption, providing links and references.
Discussions
In my user discussion page I added a comment about the contribution I planned to add. User talk:Reb1998
In creating the heritage page, I had problems with a user that cancelled it and blocked me, as I started writing directly on Wikipedia, adding information little by little. His motivations were the wrong title and the non-encyclopedic relevance of the article. In his discussion page I kindly explained my work, asking for a major explanation and the permission to continue but nothing: he claimed the wrong name of the sanctuary even if I proved with a link to another page of internet that I was right, so I asked for recommendations but he didn’t answer me. Here the link to his page: https://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Discussioni_utente:L736E#Cancellazione_della_pagina_Santuario_Santa_Maria_Assunta_Grassobbio, https://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Discussioni_utente:Reb1998
While another user was very polite giving me a warm welcome, but he cancelled the translation of Grassobbio, made by me and Sofia, so in this case she dealt with him, who provided a strong motivation and helped us: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:Reb1998, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:S0091
I've also tried to help a colleague answering her question in the FAQ of the assignment italian page, and then I had a question on the english FAQ. https://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Progetto:Coordinamento/Universit%C3%A0/UNIBG/Heritage_studies_and_ICT, Wikipedia:GLAM/UNIBG/Heritage studies and ICT.
Citation and use of sources
In doing this assignment, I made researches mostly on the Internet, on a book about the history of Grassobbio, and on a DVD.

Involvement of stakeholders
In order to find more material about the sanctuary, I involved the Priest of Grassobbio’s oratory, asking the permission to open the church and take pictures of the architecture and frescoes. He gave to me and Sofia this opportunity and also a dvd containing a digital calendar based on the explanation of the frescoes of the sanctuary.
