Event Details

Celebrate Asian Pacific American Heritage Month while learning to contribute to one of the world's largest online encyclopedia: Wikipedia. With millions of articles, thousands of editors, and decades of research, it has become a trusted resource for getting first-look information in dozens of different disciplines. 

Learn to edit Wikipedia pages and contribute to making knowledge more accessible. All experience levels are welcome. It is highly recommended that participants create a Wikipedia account ahead of time. 

Please register and reserve your space below! Light refreshment will be provided.

This is a hybrid program. If attending virtually, please ensure you register with a valid email address. The Zoom link will be provided in a confirmation email.

The San Diego Wikimedians User Group, an affiliate of the Wikimedia Foundation, will be giving a short tutorial on getting started with Wiki editing. Afterwards, we will begin editing! Computers will be available. Attendees may bring their own WiFi-enabled devices if they so desire, though in-room outlet space may be limited.
