Briarcliff Manor-Scarborough Historical Society
From 2013 to 2016, with intermittent work from 2016 to July 20, 2018, I was a volunteer Wikipedian in Residence at the Briarcliff Manor-Scarborough Historical Society. I worked with other volunteers in this nonprofit organization to facilitate improvement of Wikipedia entries related to the institution's mission, to encourage and assist it to release much of its material under open licenses, and to develop the relationship between the institution and the Wikimedia community.
Century Association Archives Foundation
From August 2017 to January 2018, I was at the Century Association Archives Foundation. I worked with archivists in this nonprofit to likewise facilitate improvement of Wikipedia entries related to the institution's mission, to encourage and assist it to release much of its material under open licenses, and to develop the relationship between the institution and the Wikimedia community. My work was funded by the foundation, which maintains a publicly accessible archive within the Century Association's top floor. The Archives Foundation strives for neutral and encyclopedic accounts of the Association, its history, and its members.

Miscellaneous Briarcliff Manor wiki projects I've decided to do - the Wikivoyage and Wiktionary pages, stubs of the main article for other language Wikipedias, its portal, book, navbox, categories and subcategories on Commons and this Wikipedia, a Commons gallery, and a comprehensive image repository of self-taken and historical society archival images, found in the Common category and its subcategories. I also organized a Wikipedia event in Briarcliff in August 2014, though the event topic was Westchester County, not the village.
