A Wikiblitz is a type of Edit-a-thon where volunteer Wikipedia editors tackle one particular task together: improving a single article, fixing a whole category of pages, or uploading a whole photo collection. Complete beginners are welcome; training and troubleshooting is provided. This Wikiblitz will focus on improving the pages of the New Zealand fairy tern, our most threatened bird species.
Editors who can't make it to Wellington are of course welcome to join in remotely. Email Mike at giantflightlessbirdsgmail.com if you would like to Skype in and meet participants.
The Wikiblitz is free and open to all. You don't need to be an experienced Wikipedia editor to take part. Wikipedians will be present to help newcomers make edits. We'll have reference books, recent publications, and some imput from fairy tern experts.
