Hi, Peyton. I have been a Wikipedian since I began doing it BOTH (a) at work AND (b) in my free time... and now belong to several projects.
I live nearby Brookline in Mission Hill, and that library could also be a good meeting place, as might the Parker Hill Branch of the BPL (in Mission Hill/Roxbury - on the #66 line and walking distance from #66 and #39 buses and the Green and Orange Lines). MassArt also could be a great place to start with a periodic meeting.
Now I work primarily on this project. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:WikiProject_Veganism_and_Vegetariani...

Hi everyone! I'm kind of a beginner Wikipedian but I'm interested! I'm a library worker in Brookline. I think the BPL would be a great place to meet if that's convenient for people! Best, Peyton Alie

Thank you for the idea, Gabrielle--I'd definitely be interested in pursuing that. I have not run an edit-a-thon myself, but I'd love to in the future with the lacemakers at our conferences.
If there was someone who could manage that organizational part of it, I could bring the project needs, and I could learn how to do edit-a-thons too.
I'm planning the public launch of my project to the lace community in January, after the holidays, so people will be finished with all that and looking for winter projects in the northern hemisphere.

Hi Mary, This looks like such a cool project. I'm at Mass Art and an art librarian. I might be able to help with citations / ref etc. Maybe we could do an edit-a-thon with our fibers department?

Hello Rachele and the whole team--
I'm new to this place too, but I have a project underway that I'd love to have some input on. Do we have occasional meetings, or could we have one at some point? I'm willing to give a short presentation about this grant I got, and explain the project.
Perhaps a BPL room, or something like that? I don't know how you've met in the past. Open to any suggestions.
I could really use some advice on handling references/citations/bibliography sections.

Hello,
I just discovered this cool Wikipedia meet up. I’ve started doing some editing on Wikipedia, but it is a little lonely and it would be great to meet other people in the Boston area who are also doing this. Especially the edit-a-thons.
I live in Roslindale and am looking forward to meeting new people.
