Details

Join us for a full Sunday of social Wikipedia editing at Center for Jewish History (drop-in any time!), during which we will create, update, and improve Wikipedia articles pertaining to the American Soviet Jewry movement.

All are invited, with no specialized knowledge of the subject or Wikipedia editing experience required.

We encourage participants to take advantage of resources from the Archive of the American Soviet Jewry Movement at the American Jewish Historical Society that were recently digitized with the generous support of the National Historical Publications & Records Commission (NHPRC).

Training sessions on editing Wikipedia will be held at 11:15 am and 1:00 pm. Experienced Wikipedians will be on-hand to assist throughout the day.. Please bring your laptop and power cord; we will have library resources, WiFi, and a list of suggested topics on hand.

Light refreshments will be provided.

Make edits! Ask questions! Be bold!
