Hi Wikimedia DC folks,
As a part of the
Year of Science, the Wiki Education Foundation will join the Simons Foundation at the annual meeting for the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS), on February 13th and 14th in DC, where they will host several Wikipedia edit-a-thons.
They're looking for DC-area community members who are interested in attending the event to moderate 1–4 of the sessions. The Simons Foundation will cover the registration cost for any moderators, so you'll also be able to attend other parts of the conference that weekend.
Location
Schedule
- Session 1: February 13th, 10am–1pm
- Session 2: February 13th, 1:30pm–4:30pm
- Session 3: February 14th, 10am–1pm
- Session 4: February 14th, 1:30pm–4:30pm
Interested parties can find more information about the events and how to apply to be a moderator on the
AAAS website.
I hope to see you in DC in a few weeks to bring more scientists to Wikipedia!
