|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.
−
|description = Join Wikipedia and Wikimedia enthusiasts from the United States, Canada and Mexico for the third annual WikiConference North America (formerly known as WikiConference USA). This year's event will be held at Balboa Park and the Central Public Library in San Diego, California.
  
   
  +
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.
−
The weekend will feature both academic and casual presentations on Wikimedia-related outreach activities, workshops to improve the skills of grassroots organizers, and discussions on the past, present, and future of the Wikimedia projects. There will be tracks on community outreach, online activity, partnerships with institutions of knowledge, and technology. This year's theme is inclusivity—community building and sharing knowledge in architecturally-beautiful venues meant to inspire thought and action.

This event is planned in coordination with our friends at Wikimedia DC.

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. We believe that we can hear a bit of the session if we line up very early. If you can be in line by 5:30am please join us. It'll be cold and there are no easily available bathrooms so ... prepare as well as possible.

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.
