Basics on editing Wikipedia | |
Help after the event |
|
As part of its Women In Technology Professional Development Series (WiT), Cisco Systems is hosting a Wikipedia presentation and edit-a-thon on January 19, 2017. The event will focus on orienting attendees to Wikipedia's gender gap -both content and editorship- especially relating to women in technology. The event is open to Cisco staff, and invited guests. Lunch is provided courtesy of Cisco.
Training:
- Username account creation
- Notability
- Reliable sources
- Hands-on how to edit, improve, expand existing articles
- Hands-on new article creation
Goals:
- To encourage inexperienced editors (especially women) and show them how they can contribute to Wikipedia
- To improve a selection of Wikipedia articles related to women in technology
- To increase awareness of systemic bias
RSVP
Attendees:
- Rosiestep (talk) 19:56, 10 January 2017 (UTC)

Worklists
Attendees should feel free to add the names of notable women in technology who need a better Wikipedia presence. The provided lists are not intended to be comprehensive, but rather to provide a starting point for work by event participants.
Lists of gaps
- Computer scientists (This page contains a list of women who have a biography on another language Wikipedia, but not on English Wikipedia.)
