Lipscomb Library's Second Annual Wikipedia Editathon

Let's get together and improve Wikipedia!

You've probably heard that anyone can edit Wikipedia. But have you ever considered that you could edit Wikipedia? A Wikipedia Editathon (sometimes written as "edit-a-thon") is an event where participants learn the basics of Wikipedia editing, and then contribute to making some edits and additions to Wikipedia pages that could use some help.

You can drop in at any time for this event, and stay as long as you want! There will be snacks! On day 2 there will even be pizza to help kick off the weekend!
