Hello again!
Not even a week ago I sent out an email talking about upcoming events in DC. Guess what?
There are more events coming up in February.
First, as a reminder, there is a WikiSalon on February 11 (RSVP here
http://www.meetup.com/Wikimedia-DC/events/220239571/ or just show up) and Wiki Loves Small
Museums at the Small Museum Association Conference on February 15 (more information here:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Meetup/Ocean_City,_MD/Wiki_Loves_Sm…).
Now, I am very pleased to announce:
* Tuesday, February 17 from 10 AM to 3 PM there will be #WikiTurgy at the University of
Maryland. Join fellow theatre enthusiasts for a “mass act of public dramaturgy!” More

History Edit-a-Thon. We are working in partnership with the Moorland-Spingarn Research
Center to improve Wikipedia’s coverage of African-American and African diasporic history.

There is going to be a lot going on, and I hope you can come to some of the events!

Thanks,
