American Academy of Religion, Women in Religion WikiProject Workshop; November 17

Hi LiAnna,

Rosie Stepheson-Goodknight gave me you name. The Women in Religion WikiProject is doing a Wikipedia Workshop at the American Academy of Religion in San Antonio on Friday, Nov 17, in the morning. The audience will be largely academics. We will be focusing a significant portion of our two hour block of time on Wikipedia in the classroom. Our Wiki group works on creating and improving biographies about undercovered women (defined broadly) in religion (also defined broadly) -- on Wikipedia and as secondary sources.

I don't quite know how your division works but I am wondering if you would be able to help us with this presentation in some way. Do you have staff or Wikipedians in the San Antonio area that might be interested in helping us in person? Do you have slides that we could use to cover the use of Wikipedia in a college classroom? Are you available for a conversation?

Thanks for any help or connections you might provide.

Sincerely,

Colleen Dzingle1 (talk) 21:37, 5 November 2023 (UTC)

Hi @Dzingle1:! Great to hear from you. My colleagues Andrés and Helaine would be happy to help -- can you shoot them an email at andreswikiedu.org and helainewikiedu.org? --LiAnna (Wiki Ed) (talk) 17:55, 6 November 2023 (UTC)

Thank you so much!! Dzingle1 (talk) 18:20, 6 November 2023 (UTC)
