International Women’s Day : Wikipedia Editathon

Are you ever frustrated by what is missing from Wikipedia? Are you interested in women’s history and queer history in Canada? Join us for a 3-part Wikipedia Editathon in celebration of International Women’s Day.
 
This event is offered as a partnership between the Lesbian and Gay Liberation in Canada project, The Humanities Data Lab, and the Faculty of Art’s DHToolbox series. If you are new to editing Wikipedia, join us for the Training and Practice session, otherwise feel free to come out just for the Drop-In Editathon. We’ll have snacks, a support team, research resources, and most importantly, lots of pages that could use your help.
