A global edit-a-thon campaign to improve Wikipedia's coverage of women in architecture and to increase female contributors to Wikipedia. |
The Women in Architecture edit-a-thon is a global campaign to improve Wikipedia's coverage of women in architecture and to increase female contributors to Wikipedia.
The Solomon R. Guggenheim Foundation (WP:GUGG GLAM page), Beverly Willis Architecture Foundation, Women in Design, Architexx, Parlour, N-Ails of Berlin Wikiproject Women Wikipedia Design (WikiD), and WikiProject Women in Red are uniting with international allies to focus on biographies and related topics undercovered in architectural history.
With keystone events scheduled for October 15 in New York City and elsewhere, the campaign aims to further the goals of Ada Lovelace Day for STEM, and Art+Feminism for art, in a field that by its nature combines both.
