Hello everyone,
Here is the proposed social media for a *LA Weekly *article describing a recent edit-a-thon held in Los Angeles to increase the coverage of African-American artists on English Wikipedia. It would be great to feature this on our sm channels. Thank you for reviewing!
t: "He was a lively fixture of the L.A. art scene. Now he has a lively Wikipedia page." 15 artists now on Wikipedia: http://www.laweekly.com/informer/2014/12/16/black-artists-get-wikipedia-page...
t: "Unforgetting L.A" Edit-a-thon writes in 15 note-worthy African American Artists: http://www.laweekly.com/informer/2014/12/16/black-artists-get-wikipedia-page...
t: Not Forgotten: "Unforgetting LA" writes in 15 African-American artists into Wikipedia. http://www.laweekly.com/informer/2014/12/16/black-artists-get-wikipedia-page...
f/g: Los Angeles-based mixed-media artist and photographer Willie Middlebrook sadly passed away in 2012, but he and his work will not be forgotten. Millions around the world will be able to read about him and 14 other notable African-American artists thanks to "Unforgetting L.A.", a continuous edit-a-thon held every other month.
