Improve Wikipedia’s Coverage of Women in the Arts!

Help us improve the coverage of women in the arts at the Art + Feminism Wikipedia Edit-a-Thon at Cornell! For just half an hour or for the whole day, you can pitch in through different ways: Write an entry, add a footnote, translate text, upload images, or look up information for others. You can also just cheer us on and get the buzz going on social media.

Everyone is welcome—no matter your gender, and regardless of experience with editing. Unfamiliar with Wikipedia? We’ll walk you through. Can’t bring a laptop or tablet? Use one of ours. If you already have women artists, writers, or performers in mind (whether cis-, transgender, or non-binary), great! If you don’t, just pick from our list.

Learn more and get ready for the event!

When: March 8, 2019, International Women’s Day, and throughout the month of March
Where: Olin Library, 7th Floor, or anywhere you can log in and edit

If you have questions, please feel free to get in touch with Marsha Taichman (met228) or Susette Newberry (sn18).
