Wikipedia is the largest, most popular online reference work, covering all areas of history and contemporary life. However, both the topics it covers and the people who edit its articles don’t reflect the diversity of the LGBTQ community. In honor of LGBTQ History Month, join us for a Queer Wikipedia Edit-a-thon. Together we’ll improve representation of LGBTQ people, events, and topics in Wikipedia. No prior experience editing Wikipedia is necessary. Refreshments will be provided. Please RSVP: http://myumi.ch/J2MxP
