Glad you're excited - do you think Wikimedia France will sponsor the event perhaps? (Giveaways, funding) You know what would be cool - if we could also try to coordinate some translations of articles into other languages after or during the event. I've participated in events where the event was in Mexico, and we collaborated on Etherpad to write articles and translate them. It was really cool and a lot of good content came from it! But that's just an idea, for use now or to table for later!Hi,
This is a great idea :) We can try to have a female-related article in the first page of wikipedias. (I've just asked for fr-wikipedia).
You're lucky to have Women's History Month, in France we have "Women's Rights Day"', often translated in mass medias to "Woman's Day'" and, as women, we are always told the oh so funny joke "don't do the laundry today.... Leave it for tommorow". -_-"
That sounds wonderful. I do know a few people who have worked with NPOV and political groups. [[User:Carolmooredc]] has recently put on an event that worked with advocacy groups and taught them how to edit neutrally. http://wikimediadc.org/wiki/One_day_training The talk page also has her input from the recent event. I have no clue if this would be helpful, but it's a PowerPoint I presented to the Smithsonian Institution staff about NPOV and COI editing: http://www.slideshare.net/SarahStierch/sourcing-original-research-notability-conflict-of-interest-wikipedia-glamI'll try to involve feminist organizations in the Wikipedia edition, how writting women's history is a feminist act, etc. Anyone has the experience of dealing with teaching NPOV to polical organizations and if it ends well ?
