24. Time – Every document is a creature of its time
Place – The place of its creation is a key attribute of its importance
People – The social and cultural context of its creation
Subject/Theme – The subject matter may represent particular historical or intellectual developments
Form/Style – The item may…be a key exemplar of a type of presentation, custom or medium
Social/Community significance – The document must have an emotional hold on people who are alive today
z.B., 22 Einträgen vertreten:

The vision of the Memory of the World Programme is that the world's documentary
heritage belongs to all, should be fully preserved and protected for all and, with due
recognition of cultural mores and practicalities, should be permanently accessible to all
without hindrance.
”
~~~
“
Imagine a world in which every single human being can freely share in the sum of all
knowledge.

The documentary heritage nominated must be finite and precisely defined; broad,
general or open-ended nominations will not be accepted…Once added to the Memory of the
World Register, the document group cannot be varied or redefined over time.

But….
Re-use and re-mix is the vernacular culture of the internet.
What does heritage mean for culture if it must stay fixed?
How could this sensible rule accommodate Wikipedia?
You might need to spell out GLAM: Kunstsammlungen, Bibliotheken, Archive und Museen.
Translation:
The world needs Your knowledge!
cooperate in the cultural realm with Wikimedia Deutschland for more free knowledge. As knowledge grows by sharing.
the RAMP tool developed by University of Miami helps to deconstruct EAD finding aids and embed that information in Wikipedia (including finding authorized forms of names).
