For the October 20, 2021 Architects Build Wiki inaugural Edit-a-Thon we will focus on the pages of the following Michigan Architects. The architects are organized into groups.
Below is space to list articles or other Wikimedia projects, categories, and lists relating to Black History that would benefit from edits and expansion during the event. Please feel free to add to this list in advance of the event.
///Researcher / Help us establish
Notability , Find articles, Facts, copyright free images////
///Beginner / Intermediate Wiki Editors - help us add links, categories, infoboxes, find missing articles.////
///Researchers - help us add additional articles below each name.////
///Additional refence material below. Feel free to add. ////
Improve this article: List of firsts in architecture
///Beginner / Intermediate Wiki Editors - help us add links, categories, infoboxes, add missing information.////
Within these links you will find pages with a multitude of weblinks OR very few. Those with very few we ask participants to search the web and find the appropriate sources to add content to their pages.
///ADVANCE Wiki Editors - help disambiguate articles and create new articles////
Within this group we have added the links that are available on the internet. We have also added a section for others to list the items that need further research and documentation so that content can be appropriately sourced for these architects. This is the groundwork that Noir Design Parti does in Detroit and Michigan. This work includes in person interviews, sorting through newspaper and library archives and other efforts to document these legacy architects. If you want to learn more about how they do this work check them out at the Research Table during the Edit-a-Thon.

///Beginner Wiki Researchers - help find articles, media, etc.////
The below 9 names are the Trailblazing architects in Detroit, Michigan. The asterisks indicate those with enough available content to create draft pages. The ones without need the Research team to create more documentation so that the legacy architects can be elevated onto the Wikipedia platform. (Karen and Saundra, is this list inclusive of all the firsts? What is the time period?)
////PARTICIPANTS: Add the missing firms. /////
Howard Sims founded this firm in 1964 originally as Howard Sims and Associates. Does SDG stand for Sims Design Group?
Beverly Hannah Jones founded this firm in 1993.

Post pilot the Architects Build Wiki project will host Edit-a-Thon's at NOMA chapters across the country. If you know of an architect in your city that should be documented on Wikipedia add their name below. Don't see your city, check the code formatting and add that too. Eventually this list will get reformatted into a table with filters.
