Increasingly, nonprofits are leading the charge to ensure that Wikipedia
content is better balanced. Libraries, galleries, museums and universities
are often behind the edit-a-thons, and there’s an emerging breed of
“editor-activists.”
The Philadelphia Museum of Art hosted a Wikipedia an edit-a-thon aimed at
adding or expanding entries for artists whose work is included in the
current exhibition “Represent: 200 Years of African American Art.”
