Dear NYC Wikipedians,

Sorry for the barrage of emails today (!) but I wanted to send a separate invitation for a *non-METRO-related Wikipedia event* that I've been planning with Sian Evans, Michael Mandiberg, and Jacqueline Mabey of the *Art+Feminism *Wikipedia group. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Meetup/ArtAndFeminism

*ArtAndFeminism Train the Trainers / October 27 2014 / CUNY Graduate Center*

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Meetup/NYC/ArtAndFeminism_Training_0...

Thus, this is not your regular Edit-a-thon, but a lesson-planned event to get professionals and those that want to be event facilitators up to speed on how to run edit-a-thons and what they need to know about editing to be a future Edit-a-thon trainer.

The event aspires to be an opportunity to train future facilitators of Edit-a-thons - particularly ArtandFeminism Edit-a-thons, which our group will be organizing in the Spring to coincide with the anniversary of last year's https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Meetup/ArtAndFeminism_2014 successful and highly reported-on Art+Feminism Edit-a-thon campaign.

I invite you to come and participate in this event, especially if you want to learn about and discuss how to be a better Edit-a-thon facilitator.

If you have any questions, again, please do not hesitate to contact me or one of the other organizers.

All the best,

Dorothy Howard
