Wednesday, March 24, 12noon-4pm, this on-line event requires advance registration

Join the Wexner Center for the Arts, University Libraries and the Billy Ireland Cartoon Library and Museum for the third annual Art+Feminism Wikipedia Edit-a-thon.

Despite its wide reach, Wikipedia suffers from a severe gender gap: this online encyclopedia has fewer and less extensive articles on women and queer artists. This inclusive event is dedicated to improving coverage of gender, feminism, and the arts on Wikipedia. On March 24, we invite you to edit Wikipedia throughout the day and contribute to closing the information gap online. No experience is necessary!

Event organizers will be available to answer questions and assist editors in an open Zoom meeting from 12noon to 4pm. Before the event, participants are encouraged to first create a Wikipedia account, log into the dashboard, and register for our open Zoom meeting.

Hosted by The Ohio State University Libraries and Wexner Center for the Arts.
