|description = Concerned about the public policy issues affecting copyright law, open access, and the Internet at large? Wikimedia DC is hosting its second annual Wiki Loves Capitol Hill training.

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 March 27th for a Wikipedia edit-a-thon. Attendees will edit and create Wikipedia articles inspired by the museum’s first digital exhibition, “Becoming Visible.”
