Activity Report for the Third Quarter of Fiscal Year 2013–14

Content programs

During the quarter, Wikimedia DC held seven edit-a-thons: six in Washington, DC, and one in Frederick, MD. We provided support to an additional edit-a-thon held at the University of Delaware. All of these events were held in partnership with other institutions, including universities and libraries. A total of 68 volunteers participated in the five edit-a-thons where we were able to collect data. This includes:

18 who created Wikipedia accounts this quarter;
4 who created accounts at an edit-a-thon and have attended at least one additional edit-a-thon; and
28 who have attended at least two edit-a-thons this fiscal year, including 7 who attended two or more edit-a-thons this quarter alone.

In total, as of the end of the quarter, a total of 120 volunteers have participated in Wikimedia DC edit-a-thons, which is 240% of the goal set for the fiscal year and an increase of 37.5% since the last quarter.
