Second Annual ASU Art and Feminism Wikipedia Edit-A-Thon

The second annual Art and Feminism Wikipedia edit-a-thon is a joint event sponsored by the School of Art and Arizona State University Library, as part of the Art and Feminism Do It Yourself campaign to improve coverage on feminism and the arts on Wikipedia and also encourage female editorship.  

ASU Library is co-sponsoring the Wikipedia edit-a-thon in conjunction with Open Education Week, emphasizing OER or open education resources like Wikipedia. The event will offer group training sessions at 1, 3 and 5 p.m. If you arrive at another time, someone will help train you individually. Students, faculty, researchers, staff and the community are all welcome. 

Attendees will be introduced to editing Wikipedia pages and guided on editing women and art Wikipedia entries, either updating a current Wikipedia page or adding a new Wikipedia entry. You don’t need to be an expert, all you need is an interest and willingness to share your knowledge.  

The event will be catered and computers will be provided.
