Dear Boston-area Wikimedians,
Do you long for warmer temperatures and a more complete Wikipedia? You can
guarantee at least the latter by joining us on Saturday, March 5 for a
Wikipedia edit-a-thon at MIT!
Come join us for an art + feminism edit-a-thon, celebrating women's
cultural achievements. All levels of editors, including beginners, are
welcome -- experienced editors will provide training and help. This event
is hosted by the MIT Libraries, and librarians will also be on hand to help
find and use library and archival resources. Come join us for a fun,
collegial afternoon of writing, discovering, conversation, and snacks, and
help make a more complete encyclopedia for all.

Hi New England Wikimedians,
I'd like to let you know about two events that are being planned for the
Art+Feminism campaign in Maine next month.
One event would be in Portland, Maine, at the SPACE Gallery:
http://www.space538.org/
The other event would be in Rockland, Maine, at the Rockland Steel House,
Center for Design, Technology + Education:
http://www.rocklandsteelhouse.com/
Both events could use very much use the help of an experienced Wikipedian,
if there is any volunteer that thinks they can join up there.
Thanks,
Richard
