Dear Collective Members,
I just wanted to remind you about the upcoming edit-a-thon and hack-a-thons in Los Angeles on March 6 and 7. Here’s a link to Fembot's FB post about those events, as well as a link to the post on the Fembot website. Please feel free to share with students and colleagues as well. These are two separate events, held in two locations.
Because space is limited at both locations, you’ll need to register for them.
Please register for the edit-a-thon on March 6th by contacting Kitty Lindsay by email at klindsay@feminist.org or call 866-471-3652 [toll free].
You can register for the hack-a-thon on March 7th at: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/ms-fembot-hack-a-thon-tickets-15504822341
And if you have any suggestions about people, events, organizations, etc. we should be adding to Wikipedia, you can post those ideas here, or send them along to me for addition.
I’ve pasted the ideas that are already on the Wikipedia page below, just to get everyone thinking.
best,
