Wikipedia’s gender trouble is well documented, with less than 10 percent of its contributors identifying as female. While the reasons for the gender gap are up for debate, the practical effect of this disparity is not: content is skewed by the lack of female participation. Let’s change that! Stop by the Lamar Dodd School of Art Library for an afternoon of communal updating of Wikipedia entries on subjects related to art and feminism. This year's campaign focuses on Gender + The Non-Binary.

The edit-a-thon will take place in the Art Library and the N200 Computer Lab on Friday, March 1 from 12-5pm. 

There will be refreshments, computers, wikipedia experts, and research assistants on hand.

At 12:30 and 2:30 there will be brief presentations on wikipedia editing for beginners.

At 3pm Callan Steinmann will lead a tour focusing on women in the GMOA’s collection, starting at the banner by Rebecca Rutstein in our atrium.
