- Scientific WikiExpeditions are specific type of WikiTrips, that mostly represent inclusison of wikimedians into scientific expeditions of academic institutions and include scientific edit-a-thons. There are several wikimedians who agree to join expeditions like that. The aim of a Wikiexpedition is collecting, mainly photographic, documentation, by exploring a chosen region and plant of corporation. In 2016, Wikimedia RU organized an Copper Capital of Russia Science WikiExpedition to the Urals in the Wiki-Ural contest. We visited the Uralelectromed factory (Ural Mining and Metallurgical Company) and the three museums of the Verkhnyaya Pyshma city (Sverdlovsk Oblast). Result: 300 images uploaded, including historical (GLAM project), made OTRS ticket, created Wiki-Voyage page. We conducted a two-day edit-a-thon in Technical University of UMMC. Currently we are planning Sakhalin WikiExpedition on 12 June-3 July. Scientific WikiExpeditions Motto: in every scientific expedition needed wikipedians.
