Join us at the University of Regina Library, in the Wascana Room, LY 107.33, for the Art+Feminism Wikipedia Edit-a-thon on International Women's Day. This drop-in event runs from 11am-5pm and focuses on communal updating of Wikipedia entries on subjects related to art and feminism. We are working towards generating more prairie-focused content on these themes.
Art+Feminism is a rhizomatic campaign to improve coverage of women and the arts on Wikipedia, and to encourage female editorship. Wikipedia's
gender trouble is well documented.
In a 2011 survey, Wikimedia found that less than 13% of its contributors are female.[1] Let’s change that.
