Hi SF Wikimedians!
At previous events I've mentioned to a few of you that I'm working on an idea to teach a "Wiki Law School" advanced editing workshop primarily for people underrepresented among Wikipedia editors, which would be focused on how to successfully make higher-impact potentially-disputed edits. I'll be trying a first iteration of this on Tuesday March 22 as part of an intro + advanced editing evening at my women-centered makerspace in Lower Potrero Hill ( https://doubleunion.tumblr.com/post/141207688762/wikipedia-editing-intro-and...). If you're interested in learning these kinds of editing skills, feel free to come! It'll probably be less exciting if you're already an experienced editor, but you can also just come by and work on articles if you like.

Hey, great initiative!
I won't be able to make it, but I'd love to hear how it went. I'm particularly curious about how teaching advanced skills on the same occasion as introductory skills would go.
