Details
Join Girl Develop It in improving the representation of women on Wikipedia!
Women make up no more than 15% of Wikipedia’s editors, and the entries on Wikipedia don’t fully represent the wide-ranging contributions and accomplishments of women. Learn everything you need to know to get started creating and improving pages on Wikipedia, so that we can all help make Wikipedia a more equitable and accurate resource.
No experience necessary! Bring your laptop and a few ideas for women (technical or not) whose pages you’d like to create or improve. We’ll spend about 30 minutes giving a bit of an overview of the editing process and tools, and then have plenty of time to dive in and do some editing ourselves.
