Wiki Women in Red |
Women in Red is hosting a virtual editathon from March 1 to 31, 2017, on Role Models from Women's Universities in connection with a physical editathon at Northern Territory Library, Darwin, on Wednesday, 8 March. It coincides with our activities for International Women's Day and WikiWomen's History Month. Anyone can take part whatever their previous experience. The virtual edit-a-thon allows enthusiasts from around the globe to participate in the work.
The main goals of the event are:
- to encourage inexperienced editors and show them how they can contribute to Wikipedia by creating biographies of some of the world's most prominent women
- to draw the attention of more experienced editors to the need for concerted action on a specific area
- to support Wikipedia in combating the systemic bias against the coverage of women and women's works
- to promote the new/improved articles and images through social media (Facebook, Pinterest, Twitter)
