Wikipedia Edit-a-thon: Dr. Mary Edwards Walker
WHEN
- Thursday, June 20, 2024
11 AM – 2 PM EDT
WHERE
- VIRTUAL EVENT
Did you know that less than 20% of biographies in English-language Wikipedia are about women? Help change that by joining the Smithsonian American Women’s History Museum on June 20th for a Wikipedia edit-a-thon. Attendees will edit and create Wikipedia articles inspired by the life and work of Dr. Mary Edwards Walker.
Dr. Walker, the first woman to serve as a U.S. Army surgeon during the Civil War, a women’s rights advocate, and the only woman recipient of the Medal of Honor, is featured on a new quarter as part of the U.S. Mint’s American Women Quarters Program.
This event will have two parts: 1) Getting started with Wikipedia edits: 11am-12pm 2) Wikipedia edit-a-thon: 12pm-2pm
Attendees can join us for one of both parts depending on their availability and experience with Wikipedia editing. New editors are encouraged to attend the introductory session at 11am.
This event is presented with support from Wikimedia DC.
