Thanks folks! I'm back from a trip and catching up. I'm CCing the Colorado user group email list.
I've added the event to our local events page
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Meetup/Boulder
It might make sense to make a wikipedia page for the event also, like we've done in the past. See e.g. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Meetup/Colorado/Wiknic/2016
On wikipedia, my username is "nealmcb" (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Nealmcb). If you all share yours (or we make and sign up on a Wikipedia page) it will be easier to coordinate things on wikipedia itself.
I also posted it to our Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/groups/wikipedia.boulder/permalink/1080892208681814...
I suggest advertising widely. Having room for 35 sounds great.
I'm pretty open for a planning meeting this week also.
I also found this Boulder Art + Feminism event also, from March 8th:
http://events.colorado.edu/EventList.aspx?fromdate=2/27/2017&todate=3/12...
Did anyone go to that?
It lists Contact Information: Name: Jessica Brunecky Email: jessica.brunecky@colorado.edu so she'd be a good one to touch base with!
Finally, there is some organizing info at:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:How_to_run_an_edit-a-thon
note in particular:
Within a 24-hour period, only six Wikipedia accounts can be created via single IP address. If there's a chance you'll have more than six new editors at your edit-a-thon, you'll want to have a plan for how they'll create accounts.
They have tips for handling that, and also for advertising the event on wikipedia, e.g. via the geographic software notices.
Cheers,

Thanks, Isarra! We would love to have you with us at Sanitas. I'm around next week, too, and I'd love to meet up. My schedule is pretty flexible. What works for you? Anyone else is welcome to join, as well!

Hi Isarra! Yes, this is in reference to the event at Sanitas. We are new to editing ourselves. We don't have a ton of people signed up at the point, but we are ramping up our promo efforts now. Kassondra works for SNEWS and I work for Mountain Project, so we are using those platforms to spread the word. We would so love to have you! Thank you for offering!

Are enough people signing up as-is, or should we be helping? I'm probably not the most knowledgeable about how to actually edit well, being more a developer than an editor myself, but the event certainly looks interesting and I'd love to come get in the way. I mean, help. So if anyone else is interested in meeting up next week, I should be around too, so just let me know. -I On 14/03/17 03:43, Kassondra Cloos wrote: Hi everyone, We're coming up on the event Abby and I are hosting at the end of the month, and I want to circle back on all of this for some additional advice. Abby and I had a great talk with Jackie about the editing event she hosted in New York. She had some really useful insight for us on on the intricacies of writing and editing on Wikipedia, and we realized there is a lot we don't know. For example, we were both thinking we could give people a list of women who need pages, and send them off to start researching them, but Jackie mentioned that those articles could get deleted by more senior editors if they're written by folks just starting out. We want to make sure we're setting people up with the knowledge and tools they need to build up their experience and become lifelong editors who will regularly add citations, and, hopefully, some day write well-researched entries on important women as they see needs.

If so, we'd love to meet up with one (or all!) of you to learn how we can be a useful resource for the folks attending our event in two weeks. Abby is out of town right now, but I believe she's coming back next week. My schedule is completely open then, and I'm also available this weekend if that works best for anyone. We'd love a bit of a primer on how to get started as editors, and a run-through of the system so that we can give accurate advice during our event. Also, if any of you are interested in joining us at Sanitas for our "Outdoor Women of Wikipedia" event, we'd love to have you all! Jackie mentioned that Erika was an incredible--and necessary--resource for her event, and we will certainly take all the help and expertise we can get.

Yeah, we could totally meet for coffee or whatever somewhere on Broadway or Pearl street during the week, if that sounds good. I'm free pretty much any day but tuesday.
I've also CCed Todd Allen, as he's a much more active user with content, and Wikipedia specifically, than I am, so if he'd have time to read back on this and join in, maybe he'd also be able to help? Or if anyone else would care to weigh in, please do - I will do what I can, but the more folks who know what they're doing, the better.

Hello,
I would love to join you on the 26th 4-6 pm. I am in Colorado Springs so it's a bit of a drive but I'll try to be there. As a background, I am not a big editor on English Wikipedia but I do have prolific (if I may say so myself) editing on Marathi Wikipedia. I'm also an admin and a 'crat there. I'm hoping to hook into offline activities in Colorado and try to grow it all over the state.
Thank you for putting this together!
Hope to see you soon.
Cheers,
Abhay

As a background, I am not a big editor on English Wikipedia but I do have prolific (if I may say so myself) editing on Marathi Wikipedia. I'm also an admin and a 'crat there.

Within a 24-hour period, only six Wikipedia accounts can be created via
single IP address. If there's a chance you'll have more than six new editors at your edit-a-thon, you'll want to have a plan for how they'll create accounts.
I am told that bureaucrats are exempt from this restriction. I have never had to use this exemption as a 'crat on w:mr but I suppose I can do that if needed.

Thanks folks! I'm back from a trip and catching up. I'm CCing the Colorado user group email list.
I've added the event to our local events page
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Meetup/Boulder
It might make sense to make a wikipedia page for the event also, like we've done in the past. See e.g. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ Wikipedia:Meetup/Colorado/Wiknic/2016
On wikipedia, my username is "nealmcb" (https://en.wikipedia.org/ wiki/User:Nealmcb). If you all share yours (or we make and sign up on a Wikipedia page) it will be easier to coordinate things on wikipedia itself.
I also posted it to our Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/groups/wikipedia.boulder/ permalink/1080892208681814/
I suggest advertising widely. Having room for 35 sounds great.
I'm pretty open for a planning meeting this week also.
I also found this Boulder Art + Feminism event also, from March 8th:
http://events.colorado.edu/EventList.aspx?fromdate=2/27/ 2017&todate=3/12/2017&display=&type=public&eventidn=41148& view=EventDetails&information_id=167749
Did anyone go to that?
It lists Contact Information: Name: Jessica Brunecky Email: jessica.brunecky@colorado.edu so she'd be a good one to touch base with!
Finally, there is some organizing info at:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:How_to_run_an_edit-a-thon
note in particular:
Within a 24-hour period, only six Wikipedia accounts can be created via single IP address. If there's a chance you'll have more than six new editors at your edit-a-thon, you'll want to have a plan for how they'll create accounts.
They have tips for handling that, and also for advertising the event on wikipedia, e.g. via the geographic software notices.

Okay, so to clarify, since I've only been sort of following along: ☆ The event you mention at the start, that all of this is
about, is the Sanitas Brewery editathon, yes?

that you want everyone involved up to speed ahead of time
so that the properly new folks are sure to get ideal help? ☆ How are you getting the word out? Are enough people signing
up as-is, or should we be helping?
I'm probably not the most knowledgeable about how to actually
edit well, being more a developer than an editor myself, but
the event certainly looks interesting and I'd love to come get in
the way. I mean, help. So if anyone else is interested in
meeting up next week, I should be around too, so just let me know. -I On 14/03/17 03:43, Kassondra Cloos wrote: Hi everyone, We're coming up on the event Abby and I are hosting at the

Yeah, we could totally meet for coffee or whatever somewhere on Broadway

free pretty much any day but tuesday.
I've also CCed Todd Allen, as he's a much more active user with content,
and Wikipedia specifically, than I am, so if he'd have
time to read back on this and join in, maybe he'd also be able to help?
Or if anyone else would care to weigh in, please do - I
will do what I can, but the more folks who know what they're doing, the
better.

Hi Isarra! Yes, this is in reference to the event at Sanitas. We are new to editing ourselves. We don't have a ton of people signed up at the point, but we are
ramping up our promo efforts now. Kassondra works for
SNEWS and I work for Mountain Project, so we are using those
platforms to spread the word.
We would so love to have you! Thank you for offering! Abby On Wed, Mar 15, 2017 at 11:43 PM, Isarra Yos <zhorishna@gmail.com>

Okay, so to clarify, since I've only been sort of following
along:
○ The event you mention at the start, that all of this is
about, is the Sanitas Brewery editathon, yes?
○ Are you guys running this new to editing too, or is it
just that you want everyone involved up to speed ahead of
time so that the properly new folks are sure to get ideal
help?
○ How are you getting the word out? Are enough people
signing up as-is, or should we be helping?
I'm probably not the most knowledgeable about how to actually
edit well, being more a developer than an editor myself,
but the event certainly looks interesting and I'd love to
come get in the way. I mean, help. So if anyone else is
interested in meeting up next week, I should be around too,
so just let me know.

people a list of women who need pages, and send them off to

they're written by folks just starting out. We want to
make sure we're setting people up with the knowledge and

lifelong editors who will regularly add citations, and,
hopefully, some day write well-researched entries on
important women as they see needs.
I think Pharos said you're all based in the Boulder area?
If so, we'd love to meet up with one (or all!) of you to
learn how we can be a useful resource for the folks
attending our event in two weeks. Abby is out of town right
now, but I believe she's coming back next week. My
schedule is completely open then, and I'm also available this
weekend if that works best for anyone. We'd love a bit of
a primer on how to get started as editors, and a
run-through of the system so that we can give accurate
advice during our event.
Also, if any of you are interested in joining us at
Sanitas for our "Outdoor Women of Wikipedia" event, we'd love
to have you all! Jackie mentioned that Erika was an

certainly take all the help and expertise we can get. Thank you so much, everyone, and I hope you all had a

Hello,
I would love to join you on the 26th 4-6 pm. I am in Colorado Springs so
it's a bit of a drive but I'll try to be there.
As a background, I am not a big editor on English Wikipedia but I do have
prolific (if I may say so myself) editing on Marathi
Wikipedia. I'm also an admin and a 'crat there. I'm hoping to hook into offline activities in Colorado and try to grow it
all over the state.
Thank you for putting this together!
Hope to see you soon.
Cheers,
Abhay

Admins can create accounts without limit, and also can grant the accountcreator user right to allow it. If anyone needs it temporarily granted for an event, I'd be happy to either help you create the accounts or temporarily grant the flag.

Thanks folks! I'm back from a trip and catching up. I'm CCing the Colorado user group email list.
I've added the event to our local events page
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Meetup/Boulder
It might make sense to make a wikipedia page for the event also, like we've done in the past. See e.g. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ Wikipedia:Meetup/Colorado/Wiknic/2016
On wikipedia, my username is "nealmcb" (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki /User:Nealmcb). If you all share yours (or we make and sign up on a Wikipedia page) it will be easier to coordinate things on wikipedia itself.
I also posted it to our Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/groups/wikipedia.boulder/permalink /1080892208681814/
I suggest advertising widely. Having room for 35 sounds great.
I'm pretty open for a planning meeting this week also.
I also found this Boulder Art + Feminism event also, from March 8th:
http://events.colorado.edu/EventList.aspx?fromdate=2/27/201 7&todate=3/12/2017&display=&type=public&eventidn=41148&view= EventDetails&information_id=167749
Did anyone go to that?
It lists Contact Information: Name: Jessica Brunecky Email: jessica.brunecky@colorado.edu so she'd be a good one to touch base with!
Finally, there is some organizing info at:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:How_to_run_an_edit-a-thon
note in particular:
Within a 24-hour period, only six Wikipedia accounts can be created via single IP address. If there's a chance you'll have more than six new editors at your edit-a-thon, you'll want to have a plan for how they'll create accounts.
They have tips for handling that, and also for advertising the event on wikipedia, e.g. via the geographic software notices.

I'm probably not the most knowledgeable about how to actuallyedit well, being more a developer than an editor myself, but
the event certainly looks interesting and I'd love to come getin the way. I mean, help. So if anyone else is interested in
meeting up next week, I should be around too, so just let meknow.

insight for us on on the intricacies of writing and editingon Wikipedia, and we realized there is a lot we don't know.
For example, we were both thinking we could give people alist of women who need pages, and send them off to start
researching them, but Jackie mentioned that those articlescould get deleted by more senior editors if they're written
by folks just starting out. We want to make sure we'resetting people up with the knowledge and tools they need to
build up their experience and become lifelong editors whowill regularly add citations, and, hopefully, some day write
well-researched entries on important women as they see needs. I think Pharos said you're all based in the Boulder area? Ifso, we'd love to meet up with one (or all!) of you to
learn how we can be a useful resource for the folksattending our event in two weeks. Abby is out of town right now,
but I believe she's coming back next week. My schedule iscompletely open then, and I'm also available this weekend if
that works best for anyone. We'd love a bit of a primer onhow to get started as editors, and a run-through of the
system so that we can give accurate advice during our event. Also, if any of you are interested in joining us atSanitas for our "Outdoor Women of Wikipedia" event, we'd love to

certainly take all the help and expertise we can get. Thank you so much, everyone, and I hope you all had awonderful weekend!

Hello,
I would love to join you on the 26th 4-6 pm. I am in Colorado Springs so
it's a bit of a drive but I'll try to be there.
As a background, I am not a big editor on English Wikipedia but I do
have prolific (if I may say so myself) editing on Marathi
Wikipedia. I'm also an admin and a 'crat there. I'm hoping to hook into offline activities in Colorado and try to grow
it all over the state.
Thank you for putting this together!
Hope to see you soon.
Cheers,
Abhay

Hi everyone, We're coming up on the event Abby and I are hosting at the end ofthe month, and I want to circle back on all of this for some
additional advice. Abby and I had a great talk with Jackie about the editing event shehosted in New York. She had some really useful insight for
us on on the intricacies of writing and editing on Wikipedia, and werealized there is a lot we don't know. For example, we
were both thinking we could give people a list of women who needpages, and send them off to start researching them, but Jackie
mentioned that those articles could get deleted by more senioreditors if they're written by folks just starting out. We want
to make sure we're setting people up with the knowledge and toolsthey need to build up their experience and become lifelong
editors who will regularly add citations, and, hopefully, some daywrite well-researched entries on important women as they see
needs. I think Pharos said you're all based in the Boulder area? If so,we'd love to meet up with one (or all!) of you to learn how we
can be a useful resource for the folks attending our event in twoweeks. Abby is out of town right now, but I believe she's
coming back next week. My schedule is completely open then, and I'malso available this weekend if that works best for anyone.
We'd love a bit of a primer on how to get started as editors, and arun-through of the system so that we can give accurate
advice during our event. Also, if any of you are interested in joining us at Sanitas for our"Outdoor Women of Wikipedia" event, we'd love to have you
all! Jackie mentioned that Erika was an incredible--andnecessary--resource for her event, and we will certainly take all the
help and expertise we can get. Thank you so much, everyone, and I hope you all had a wonderfulweekend!
Best, Kassondra P.S. Apologies if I've left someone out here! This chain grew prettyquickly and I thought it would be simpler to reach out to
the Colorado folks directly, but please feel free to pass thismessage along to anyone else in the Wiki community.
