They concern moderation of content by online platforms as governed by Section 230. The cases will be heard from 10 AM to noon, one hour each.

It'll be cold and there are no easily available bathrooms so ... prepare as well as possible.

Join the Georgetown community to help close this gender gap on Wikipedia by increasing the representation of underrepresented groups — in both Wikipedia content and contributors — on topics such as women in politics, women in STEM, and women in the arts. There will be hands-on training provided by representatives from Wikimedia DC.

No Wikipedia editing experience necessary.

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.”
  +
  +
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.
