Celebrate women in archaeology, palaeontology and geology – by creating and improving Wikipedia articles!

Join TrowelBlazers in a one-day Wikipedia editathon dedicated to improving the Wikipedia pages of key women in archaeology, palaeotology and geology. There will be practical training in how to edit a wikipedia page, support and resources on-hand to make editing easier, and we’ve even lined up a team of experts (biographers and historians) to give talks about trowelblazing women and to lend their expertise. This event is open to those new to Wikipedia and to experienced contributors. Female editors are especially encouraged to attend. Help us improve the visibility of a host of forgotten women in science! We can think of no better way to celebrate International Archaeology Day, Earth Science Week AND Ada Lovelace Day.

Refreshments will be provided.

For more information contact: Tori Herridge from Team TrowelBlazers (teamtrowelblazers@gmail.com) or John Cummings, Wikimedian in Residence at the Natural History Museum (j.cummings@nhm.ac.uk)
