Auckland Women in Performing Arts Wikipedia Edit-a-thon Sat 14 Aug 2021.
Wikipedia is a central place that can celebrate the culture and history of Aotearoa. Surprisingly there is a great lack of information about performing arts. This editing workshop aims to address this as well as improve Wikipedia's coverage of notable women with a focus on Auckland women in theatre and dance and other forms of performing arts. Supported by Auckland Theatre Company and their Open House programme made possible with the assistance of the Auckland Council and the Auckland Festival.
This edit-a-thon is for all editing levels – learn about how you can help by editing Wikipedia articles or feel free to use the resources and get started right away.
This event is part of the Performing Arts Aotearoa Wikiproject, funded by the Wikimedia Foundation.
