Dear Wiki-Yorkers,
Coverage on electronic music is way behind so we'll be editing from the DJ
booth with our friends at Nowadays as part of the Techno Edit-a-thon
scheduled for tomorrow, January 30th, from 8 - 11P. We hope you'll join us!
As usual, no experience of anything is required, but we do ask that you
bring a laptop.
*** Techno Wikipedia Edit-a-thon ***
Date: January 30th
Time: 8:00 - 11:00P
Location: Nowadays, 56-06 Cooper Avenue (https://nowadays.nyc/)

An update for tomorrow, spend the rainy day inside with art and open
knowledge, with a wiki-cake finale:
Join us at The Met for a Wikipedia edit-a-thon focused on the history, art,
and culture of America—and the understanding that each of us brings to
America. America's past and evolution is a complex tapestry of cultures,
from Indigenous peoples to settlers, enslaved peoples, pioneers, and
immigrants. Each culture, together with the growing pains of war, industry,
and expansion, has provided a rich history of our past in the objects that
artists and artisans created.
---When & Where---
Date: Saturday, January 25, 2020
Time: 12:30 pm – 4:30 pm
Bonnie Sacerdote Classroom, Ruth and Harold D. Uris Center for Education
Metropolitan Museum of Art (81st Street entrance), 1000 Fifth Avenue
We have a special tour of the American Wing at 1pm, and we'll end the day
with wiki-cake, and briefly sing in Wikipedia's new year!
And maybe some of us will head out to a bar afterward for an informal
Wikipedia Night.
