University of San Francisco, Gleeson Library | Geschke Center

A workshop to build a conversation and a communal updating of Wikipedia entries on subjects related to art and feminism. People of all gender identities and expressions welcomed and encouraged to attend. No Wikipedia editing experience necessary! This year we are hosting a virtual zoom event, feel free to drop in or stay for the entire time.

Participants can work on any of the following, based on their comfort level: • create new articles • check facts • upload relevant images for articles • add citations to entries • check articles for grammar • edit articles so they are easier to read + consume

The Library will provide: • Tutorials for beginner Wikipedians, • Gleeson Art+Feminism Libguide access, • Suggestions for entries that need editing, • Reliable online research materials, • Breakout rooms for smaller groups.
