Art and Feminism Wikipedia Edit-a-thon

[ismnotwasm]

Saturday, February 1, 2014 - 12:00pm - 6:00pm
On Feb. 1, people at more than a dozen locations around the world will work together to edit Wikipedia for greater representation of women in art and other articles.

To learn more, visit https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Meetup/ArtAndFeminism.

The event is organized by people at Eyebeam Art and Technology Center, 540 West 21st Street, New York City. They can also provide guidance for attendees at their location on how to edit Wikipedia effectively. They encourage people to join in from all over the world - if you can't edit from their Center, join remotely or at one of the other event locations.

We have lots of great resources on how to edit Wikipedia (and why!) on HASTAC. Check out the Related Content on the left for more information.

1. About time, if you ask me

I still remember how weird it was to be in art history class and see all these male names, and so few female ones. It was strange, because the most creative people I knew were women, and there were so many women in the class, too.

Btw, I went to the meetup-link, but it didn't work for me. Am I doing something wrong?
