Making native European minorities visible

I am a data scientist and open data expert who tries to bring more and more reliable, high-quality open data, photos and knowledge to Wikipedia, Wikimedia Commons, and Wikidata. I am hosting several Wikibaase Suite instances. Currently my main interest is to build up the Finno-Ugric Data Sharing Space as an alternative to small-language incubators. Our experimental project aims to connect Khanti, Manysi, Udmurt, Mari, Seto, Livonian, Võro, Latgalian (not Finno-Ugric, but regionally related) content to Wikipedia, Wikimedia Commons, and Wikidata. I would like to make some of this material visible on the English Wikipedia, too. Around 2005 I was a very active Wikipedia editor in my native tongue, Hungarian, but currently I am more interested in mass importing and collection of Wikidata and Commons material.

Any help to make the most important members of these communities known would be more than welcome. Many of these language have only a few hundred or a few thousand speakers, so their connecting language is often English or Russian, but Wikipedia has obstacles in the Russian Federation.
