Thanks! I'm forwarding this chain to Adeline. I'm also adding Monika
Sengul-Jones, who was recently hired by OCLC.

Adeline Koh was one of the big influencers who got me
interested in
Wikipedia a few years ago, especially as the gender gap relates to the
digital humanities. It looks like she's at Stockton University in NJ near
Atlantic City. Not sure if she's an active Wiki person anymore, but she
would be great.
I also recommend Heather Hart from Black Lunch Table, though I'm not sure
of her availability. Heather has been doing a great unheralded job with her
initiative, which is focused on Visual artists of the African Diaspora and
the gender gap. She has been actively conducting editathons across North
America, with plans to do outreach internationally in the next year. She
has presented at Wikipedia Day 2017 and at the recent unconference for
Women Journalists that was at ThoughtWorks NYC shortly after the
Inauguration.

About:
The Black Lunch Table (BLT) <http://www.theblacklunchtable.com/> is an
ongoing collaboration between artists *Jina Valentine* (Fishantena
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Fishantena> (talk
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:Fishantena>)) and *Heather Hart
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heather_Hart>* (Heathart
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Heathart> (talk
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:Heathart>)) which intends to
fill holes in the documentation of contemporary art history. In its 10 year
existence, the BLT has taken a variety of forms relating to this most
recent iteration, in the form of the Wikipedia edit-a-thon. BLT’s aim is
the production of discursive sites (at literal and metaphorical lunch
tables), wherein cultural producers of color engage in critical dialogue on
topics directly affecting our communities. They endeavor to create spaces,
online and off, mirroring the activity and creativity present in sites
where Blackness and Art are performed.

I am not close, but Pharos might know someone.
Also, Adeline Koh is at Rutgers, and historically did some really good
stuff with Wikimedia, and Adrienne on minority women. She has been very
successful at organizing these events, and getting significant contribs.
Cheers,
Alex

I've received a speaker's request that
I'm not available to do,
and the coordinator has asked me to see if anyone from the
NJ-NYC area could run this workshop instead. I believe there
would be an honorarium. See below:

A couple years ago you did an intro to Wikipedia editing workshop for
the Telling Untold Histories unconference at Rutgers-Camden. I'm wondering
if you would be interested and available to do another intro workshop at
our next unconference, which will be May 11, 2017 at Rutgers-Newark.
The unconference is attended by many cultural heritage professionals as
well as community members, students, and educators. Our goal is to
introduce attendees to the power of Wikipedia to insert lesser known
stories into the discourse.
Let me know if you have any questions and what you think!
Best,
Mary
