I think the Norwegian lists are a subset of Preus Photo Museums list. It is now maintained partly by Nasjonalbiblioteket (the Norwegian one, not the Swedish one) and Norsk Lokalhistorisk Institutt. For examle; Anders Beer Wilse in nowiki,[1] at Lokalhistoriewiki,[2] and at Nasjonalbiblioteket.[3]
Kulturnav is a kind of maintained ontology, where most of the work is done by local museums. The software for the site itself is made (in part) by a grant from Norsk Kulturråd. We should connect as much as possible of our resources to resources at Kulturnav, and not just copy data. That said, we don't have a very good model for hov to materialize data from external sites and make it available for our client sites, so our option is more or less just to copy. It is better to maintain data at one location.
