Join us at the WERK Wikipedia Edit-A-Thon! In this event, participants will receive hands-on training about editing and creating wikipedia pages with an eye toward increasing representation of queer and trans scholars, artists of color, and more on Wikipedia.
No previous Wikipedia experience required! We’ll have hands-on training from experienced Wikipedians who will have you editing in no time.
This event coincides with the Clemson-hosted Back the Blue event. The goal is to provide a forum to support our queer community and people of color!
Land acknowledgement
The main campus of Clemson University occupies the traditional and ancestral land of the Cherokee People. The campus was built on a former slave plantation by convict labor. Learn more at https://www.decolonizecu.org/.
What to expect
This is a gathering for anyone, from seasoned contributors to people who want to know more. Anyone can contribute. No Wikipedia editing experience is necessary; as needed throughout the event, training will be provided for Wikipedia newcomers. If you are unfamiliar with Wikipedia, you can get a head start with this this training module.
