Subject: Wikipedia Edit-a-Thon Tomorrow, Sat Nov. 2nd at Jefferson Market
Library
To: glamwikiny(a)googlegroups.com
Dear Wikipedians,
Wikimedia NYC, NYPL Jefferson Market Library, and METRO would like to
remind you of the Edit-a-Thon that we'll be hosting tomorrow from 10am-5pm
at Jefferson Market Library in Greenwich Village . Please forward this
message to anyone that you think will be interested.
*Edit-a-Thons
*Adding to Wikipedia is an exercise in research and writing to avoid
biasing language, and a way to contribute to the framing of public
knowledge. It also allows you to instantaneously share your knowledge and
subject specialties with an international community. The average American
takes a look at 5 Wikipedia articles a day and Wikipedia is consistently in
the top two search results on any given topic.*
*
An Edit-a-Thon is an event meant to build attendees Wikipedia editing
skills and critical understanding of Wikipedia content and most of all, to
generate Wikipedia articles, content, organize pages, and upload
photographs on topics of interest to attendees.
*
*
*Wikipedia Edit-a-Thon on Greenwich Village History, NYPL Jefferson
MarketLibrary, Sat November 2
*
The Edit-a-thon <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Meetup/NYC> will
help complete Wikipedia articles about Greenwich
Village History and the public art, community gardens, and library
branches in the area, but you are welcome to come and edit on anything of
interest to you. Editors will have the opportunity to utilize rare books
and items from the Greenwich Village Collection, which holds over 150+
books on the history of New York City.
Wikipedians will be on hand to provide basic training on how to edit
articles, and provide more advanced training for the experienced.
*Location:* Jefferson Market Library.
425 Avenue of the Americas at 10th Street in Greenwich Village, Manhattan.
*Agenda*
• 10am: Event Begins

Kevin,
Please clarify for me - previously you had asked me to be there at 10am. In
this last letter you said 1:30 and 2:30. Should I be at this college at
10am on that day? If so, should I be at this location you just described,
or just present for these other presentations. Thanks.
yours,

Hello Kevin,
Here is a page for this meetup.
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:MEETUP/NYC/Medicine_October_2013>
If you like, add your name below mine as an attendee.
The two events which we said would happen are a meeting with classroom
support staff and a presentation to the students about their assignment. I
can plan other presentations also to last all day for different audiences.
If there is more to say about planning this event then as you arrange
meetings through the day, tell me what will happen, what time it will
happen, and what kind of audience is likely to attend.
I am cc'ing my friend David on this. He was just suggesting to me that I
ought to spend more time with health classes in New York and as a former
librarian for biomedical scientists, I thought that he might like to know
about what we were doing. David, you are welcome to join me if you like.
yours,
On Wed, Oct 2, 2013 at 3:29 PM, Kevin Ambrose <

I agree! It's something we should have, but haven't in the past.
