I just ran across a new-ish (Feb 17) resource for people interested in running editathons for scientists, developed by the Simons Foundation. You can read the blog post[1] and download the guide in PDF form[2].
The guide provides a well-organized and comprehensive set of practical tips for organizing, publicizing, and running editathons and is tuned to the needs and interests of science SMEs.
Forwarding because I know there are many folks on this list who are involved in this sort of work and/or could be.
Cheers, Jonathan

For those of you who are not familiar with the Simons Foundation:
- they are one of the funders of the Wiki Education Foundation's Year of Science [1], via their "Science Sandbox" program [2] - they are also financially supporting the WikiCite event in Vienna in May [3] - they are among the organizations who formally endorsed the Initiative for Open Citations we launched earlier this month [4]
