Dear all,

Apologies for cross-posting!

Have you ever wondered how you might use your own particular skills and subject expertise to help build the world's most popular online research tool? We are the lead co-organizers of Art+Feminism, a campaign to improve coverage of women and the arts on Wikipedia and to encourage female editorship. We invite you to join us for the 3rd international Art+Feminism Wikipedia Edit-a-thon, on the weekend of March 4-6, 2016.

Last year, over 1500 participants at the Museum of Modern Art in New York and more than 75 node events around the world participated in the second annual Wikipedia Edit-a-thon, resulting in the creation of nearly 400 new pages and significant improvements to 500 articles on Wikipedia. We are hoping to double these results in 2016, and this is where we need you!

Email us at [log in to unmask]<mailto:[log in to unmask]> to organize a satellite event at your institution. We will help walk you through the logistics of setting up and connect you with a Wikipedian who can help facilitate training. It's a great way to do your part to close the gender gap AND establish a Wikipedia practice on your campus!

Funds are available for satellite events. Get in touch to learn more.

We look forward to hearing from you!

The Art+Feminism team (Siān Evans + Jackie Mabey + Michael Mandiberg)
