Event Details
Wikipedia is the largest online encyclopedia in the world. With millions of articles, thousands of editors, and decades of research, it has become a trusted resource for getting first-look information in dozens of different disciplines. Yet fewer than 20% of Wikipedia's biographical articles feature women.
Learn to edit Wikipedia pages and contribute to making knowledge more accessible! Join us in editing and writing Wikipedia articles. All experience levels are welcome. It is highly recommended that participants create a Wikipedia account ahead of time.
The San Diego Wikimedians User Group, an affiliate of the Wikimedia Foundation, will be giving a short tutorial on getting started with Wikipedia. Afterwards, we will begin editing! Computers will be available. Attendees may bring their own WiFi-enabled devices if they so desire, though in-room outlet space may be limited.— Pauline Bronstein
Light refreshments and snacks may be provided.
