Join NMWA and our partner, Wikimedia DC, for our annual Wikipedia Edit-a-thon to help close information gaps related to gender, feminism, and the arts. In celebration of the exhibition, Ruth Orkin: Women on the Move, we will edit the pages of intrepid and inspiring women photojournalists.
Anyone interested in learning more about editing Wikipedia, regardless of experience, gender, or background, is welcome to attend. We will provide tutorials, reference materials, internet access, and refreshments. All you need is a laptop, motivation to combat gender bias, and a belief in equal access to quality information resources.
This is a free, in-person event. Registration is required. Please bring your own laptop and charger.

This Women’s History Month, join us for a Wikipedia edit-a-thon focusing on women connected to We Do Declare: Women’s Voices on Independence, our oral history project exploring when and how women have advanced their economic independence over the last fifty years.
Get an inside look at the project and hear additional insights from Smithsonian curator Rachel Seidman, along with a special guest whose story is featured in the project.
Participants will edit existing Wikipedia entries and create new articles using a curated worklist of women who helped change laws, contributed new research, created new networks, and ultimately, bolstered economic independence for women. New editors are welcome and will receive an introduction to Wikipedia editing led by Ariel Cetrone of Wikimedia DC.
Wikipedia is a vital link within the network of online information. Women with articles in Wikipedia are easier to find. Help us boost the discoverability of these women by editing articles in Wikipedia.
Event Schedule: 11:00 – 11:45 a.m.: Introduction to the Discoverability Lab and We Do Declare 11:45 – 12:30 p.m.: Introduction to Wikipedia Editing with Wikimedia DC 12:30 p.m. – 2:00 p.m.: Focused editing
