I agree with Vishnu. I also participated in that edit-a-thon and it went fine. Additionally, I also feel that with festivals around the corner this is a little short notice and fewer days to be able to participate.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Meetup/Bangalore/Ada_Lovelace_Edit-… The central coordination page is now up. The contact person is Dr Harini Barath - harini(a)indiabioscience.org. The in-person meetups are on the 11th at the Centre for Ecological Sciences (Biological Sciences building), Indian Institute of Science; 13th at the National Centre for Biological Sciences, GKVK campus; 14th at the Urban Solace (restaurant) at Ulsoor. I am providing some editing support on the 11th and hopefully some of you can be there on the other two days, if not do pitch in remotely and help the editors or improving the target articles (hopefully without causing edit conflicts and grief to many potentially long-term editors). best wishes Shyamal On Wednesday, October 1, 2014, Netha Hussain &lt;nethahussain(a)gmail.com&gt; wrote: created two years back, during the Ada Lovelace Day edit-a-thon in October 2012. We have more than 40 Indian women scientists included in this category now, thanks to the many women-centered edit-a-thons that attract editors' attention to this topic. I hope to see more articles added to this category after the edit-a-thon this year! for this edit-a-thon. I find it slightly off-putting to have to fill up a private google form [2] to be able to participate in a public edit-a-thon. It is also not clear to me if the event is invite-only. I am holding back from joining the event until the event allows me to participate by signing up on a Wikimedia page. guess they would need some on-wiki help in organizing the event, in which case I am happy to pitch in after October 9. https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1l5NM7WziXQ8pqtx4WoD_hkCDXVbxfmVQWeLSfkWcOP… a little short notice and fewer days to be able to participate. Women Scientists [1]. I am sure the users registered there would be interested to take part in this too. You could probably alert the event organizers about this if you know them. Wikimedians and I am sure they would also be interested to take part in this. http://www.indiabioscience.org/content/women-science-wiki-edit-thon team(a)indiabioscience.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikimediaindia-l https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikimediaindia-l https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikimediaindia-l _______________________________________________ Wikimediaindia-l mailing list Wikimediaindia-l(a)lists.wikimedia.org To unsubscribe from the list / change mailing preferences visit https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikimediaindia-l
