Wikipedia is the fifth most visited site in the world. Still, only 18% of the 1.6 million biographies in the English Wikipedia are about women, and only 16% of those individuals are tagged as scientists. During this event, you will learn how to be a Wikipedia editor – or hone your skills if you already are one – as we edit, update or add articles on Wikipedia. Trainers will be on hand throughout the day to provide guidance and assistance. To help get you started, we will have a list of people and pages we have identified that you can use to edit or create.
Optica Technical Groups host a wide range of activities to help you connect with peers and leaders in your field. Join us for one of these activities:
