Wikipedia:Meetup/PSUL Native American Learning Group Editathon
The Penn State University Libraries Native American Learning Group is holding an edit-a-thon. Our goal is to improve Wikipedia resources about Native Americans, with a special focus on Native Americans in Pennsylvania. To accomplish that goal, you can help in many ways; you can create entirely new pages, re-vamp existing pages, or help proof-read pages! On this page, you'll find some information to help you set up a Wikipedia account and master the basics of page creation/editing. Also on this page, you can find suggestions for articles to improve. It's important to remember that every little bit helps, you don't need to create a whole new page to make a difference.

Types of work for beginning editors[edit]
The lists below contain articles from any of the following categories, and their subcategories (up to 3 levels down), that need the type of work specified:
De-orphaning articles[edit]
In the Wikipedia glossary, an orphan is defined as "an article with no links from other pages in the main article namespace". These pages can still be found by searching Wikipedia, but it is preferable that they can also be reachable by links from related pages; it is therefore helpful to add links from other suitable pages with similar and/or related information. De-orphaning articles is an important aspect of building the web. This is a really great, simple way for new editors to contribute to Wikipedia! Here are instructions for de-orphaning articles. (This description is based on the Art and Feminism edit-a-thon resources.)
