[Wikimedia Education] New guide for organizing Edit-a-thons at science conferences

Forwarding a resource. Pine. ---- From: Jonathan Morgan &lt;jmorgan(a)wikimedia.org&gt; Date: Fri, Apr 21, 2017 at 10:23 AM Subject: [Wiki-research-l] New guide for organizing Edit-a-thons at science conferences To: Wiki Research-l &lt;Wiki-research-l(a)lists.wikimedia.org&gt; I just ran across a new-ish (Feb 17) resource for people interested in running editathons for scientists, developed by the Simons Foundation. You can read the blog post[1] and download the guide in PDF form[2]. The guide provides a well-organized and comprehensive set of practical tips for organizing, publicizing, and running editathons and is tuned to the needs and interests of science SMEs. Forwarding because I know there are many folks on this list who are involved in this sort of work and/or could be. Cheers, Jonathan 1. https://www.simonsfoundation.org/education-outreach/crowdsourcing-expertise/ 2. http://simonsfoundation.s3.amazonaws.com/share/sciencesandbo x/CrowdsourcingExpertise_4.7.17.pdf -- Jonathan T.
