WIKIPEDIA EDIT-A-THON
Saturday, March 23 at 1:00-4:00 PM PT
Los Angeles Public Library—Central, 630 W 5th St, Los Angeles, CA 90071
Join Angel City FC, the Los Angeles Public Library, and other Wikimedians of Los Angeles in making women’s history knowledge free for all at a one-day Wikipedia Edit-a-thon.
This edit-a-thon will create and improve articles about women and non-binary athletes, teams, and coaches in soccer. Wikipedia is the largest reference work in human history, and it’s all built and maintained by volunteer editors. Unfortunately, articles about female athletes, women’s clubs and tournaments, and other women’s sports topics are often short, out of date, or nonexistent.
To celebrate Women’s History Month, let’s make a dent in the information gap between men’s and women’s soccer.
