Wikipedia Edit-a-Thon: Summer Sessions
Program Type: Celebration Month, Community Engagement, Cultural Appreciation, Educational
Age Group: Teens , Emerging Adults , Adults , Older Adults
Wikipedia is the largest online encyclopedia in the world. With millions of articles, thousands of editors, and decades of research, it has become a trusted resource for getting first-look information in dozens of different disciplines. Please join us on Monday August 28th from 6:00pm to 8:00pm to learn to edit Wikipedia pages. All experience levels are welcome. It is highly recommended that participants create a Wikipedia account ahead of time. As part of the summer session, we will be focusing on a particular local history page with the goal of creating an article worthy of the front-page "Did You Know?" section. Please attend for more details.
Light refreshment will be provided.
The San Diego Wikimedians User Group, an affiliate of the Wikimedia Foundation, will be giving a short tutorial on getting started with Wikipedia. Afterwards, we will begin editing! Computers will be available. Attendees may bring their own WiFi-enabled devices if they so desire, though in-room outlet space may be limited.
The San Diego Public Library is seeking experienced users/editors of Wikipedia to assist members of the public in editing a Wikipedia article. We are looking to work on an article on a subject within the City of San Diego, to the point where it will get on Did You Know on the main page of Wikipedia.
Getting there
[edit]San Diego Central library is located in East Village, San Diego, and west of Interstate 5. It is encouraged that attendees plan in advance as parking underneath the library is not guaranteed. All library visitors may validate parking to two (2) hours. It is also northeast of the 12th & Imperial Transit Center, making it accessible to multiple San Diego Metropolitan Transit System options.
