In recognition of Latinx Heritage Month, this event is a collaboration between NYU Libraries and the Latinx Project at NYU, with support from Wikimedia NYC, who will train you to contribute to Wikipedia, Wikidata, and Wikimedia Commons. Wikipedia edit-a-thons have emerged as a powerful tool for communities that are underserved by the lack of diversity among Wikipedia content editors—the Latinx community being no exception.
To come prepared, create an account ahead of time here at Create a Wikipedia Editor Account. (Pseudonyms are encouraged, as is an email for password recovery.) Volunteers will also be available on Zoom and happy to help you create an account.
All attendees are subject to Wikimedia NYC’s Code of Conduct.
