Hi Željko,

It is true we welcome all monuments that are recognized (either national or
more local) into Wikidata!
However, Wiki Loves Monuments has a "one country, one competition" set up.
Providing more information about importing the data on built heritage to
Wikidata and how to create Wikipedia lists and use the data for the WLM
tools, does not change this.
I am sorry if this has led to any confusion.

Best,
Ciell
