I'm short of helpers for this event for new editors. Over 40
attendees are booked, about a 50/50 mix of people from the Royal
Society email and Twitter feeds and WMUK donors. The whole event
lasts from 2-9pm, but the key periods for helpers are about
2.45-5.20 and 6.60-9.00 pm, when they are all actually editing. An
extra hand at any parts of these periods would be very useful, just
helping new editors who get stuck on their first edits. No special
Train the Trainers etc experience needed; any regular Wikipedia
editor would be fine.
If you can make it, please sign up at the event
page on Wikipedia. Nice cake &
sandwiches, and we will go for a drink after. Alternatively, if you
can think of any other Wikipedians who might be able to do it,
please pass on, or let me have your suggestions.
WMUK can pay travel expenses, but please check with me if they would
be over £25.
