Have you ever wanted to host a Wikipedia editing event, but felt stuck because you don't know how to get one going? On June 25, the
New England Wikimedians will host an hourlong informational session on how to run a Wikipedia edit-a-thon, followed by an evening of editing articles focused on women's history and cultural issues. The latter portion of this event will be held in memory of noted Wikipeidan
Adrianne Wadewitz, who passed away in April. This is one of about
a dozen such events being held in North America this spring.
Information
Date: Wednesday, June 25 2014 from 6 to 9 p.m. Can’t be there the whole time? No problem. Join us for as little or as long as you like.
Participants: While we always welcome newcomers to Wikipedia, this particular evening will assume a basic understanding of Wikipedia markup language and how to communicate across Wikimedia projects with other users. If you are unfamiliar with editing Wikipedia, you can catch up prior to the meeting by going over
this training module.

Ogram (

Salem witch trials and related articles about the prosecution of women for witchcraft in colonial New England. I will be bringing a crate from my personal library with over 30 secondary sources with me. My goal this summer is to get this article firmly into GA status. I welcome any and all help on this!

Shii(tock) Hoping we can use a library as location, in order to improve articles? // Hi @
Shii. We won't have a library, but you can still source plenty of materials and make page improvements using online sources. Hope to see you there.
