|description = Wikipedia is one of the most highly visited websites in the world, but representation of women of color is strikingly low—both in terms of who contributes to the site and the subjects they write about. Many local and national environmental justice women activists are not represented among Wikipedia's many biographies.

Join us to set the record straight, make some friends, and celebrate the activists who have fought to make our urban environments greener. No Wikipedia editing experience necessary; training will be provided.

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.
Coffee, tea and soft drinks will be available on site, and we'll order pizza if enough people come!
