The San Diego Public Library is seeking experienced users/editors of Wikipedia to assist members of the public in creating a Wikipedia article about a locally historic individual who does not yet have an article. We are looking to work on an article on a subject within the County of San Diego, to the point where it will get on Did You Know on the main page of Wikipedia.
