Dear Wiki-Yorkers,
You're invited to attend the Black New York Wikipedia Edit-a-thon, hosted
by the Schomburg Center in collaboration with the AfroCROWD User Group and
Wikimedia New York City. This year we will focus especially on Black New
York, past and present, adding notable figures and places whose content is
incomplete or completely missing from Wikipedia.
This Wikipedia training and edit-a-thon will be held in the Aaron Douglas
Reading Room of the Jean Blackwell Hutson Research and Reference Division
on the Court Level (lower level) of the Schomburg Center (515 Malcom X
Boulevard), and attendees are welcome to stay for the entire afternoon or
drop-in any time between 12pm and 5pm. No prior experience is necessary,
but a passion for Black history and culture is highly recommended!
Please RSVP at

We look forward to editing with you soon!
