Join us for a community Wikipedia editing event, as we update and create articles in the world’s largest crowdsourced encyclopedia. No Wikipedia editing experience is necessary! We’ll provide tutorials for the beginner Wikipedian, reference materials, and a pizza lunch. If you would like us to provide a laptop for you to use, please let us know when you register. Register now!
We will be using a Wikipedia Dashboard to easily track the edits made during this Edit-a-thon. By logging into the dashboard before you start editing, your edits will be automatically tracked, and we'll be able to collect statistics on the work we've done during this editing event.
The goal of WikiProject:Women is to "improve Wikipedia's coverage of women's topics. WikiProject Women brings Wikipedia users of all genders, sexual orientations, geographic locations, and personal backgrounds together to discuss and collaborate on coverage of women's content across Wikipedia."
WikiProject: Massachusetts is "intended primarily to produce, develop, and expand articles, templates, and other content relating to the U.S. state of Massachusetts."
Wikipedia's Citation Hunt tool randomly generates Wikipedia snippets that need reliable citations.
