Wikipedia Training and Edit-A-Thon

Do you want to learn how to contribute to the world's largest encyclopedia?

It's easier than you think! Actually, it's really easy, but there are a few rules to follow and know about. Wikimedia Foundation volunteers should be on hand to help get you setup.

All you need to do beforehand is create a Wikipedia account.

The training is 1-on-1, so there's no need to arrive right at 630, or stay the entire time.

We've hosted a few of these events now, each with a particular focus. Some themes have been:

• Digital surveillance and policing in NYC
• Exposing tech company ties to ICE/CBP/Palantir
• Tech worker history

If you don't know what to contribute, TWC members will be continuing work on these subjects during the edit-a-thon. Feel free to help out! A riseup pad will be provided with suggested topics and sources.

Not interested in the above subjects? Just come with something you want to work on and we will help!

And by the time we're done, you'll have made your first contribution to Wikipedia!

This meeting is unfortunately not accessible, due to being up a flight of stairs. No prior attendance at TWC meetings required, and you don't need to RSVP here to attend.
