Roberta Wedge Gender Gap Project, Wikimedia UK

Biography I started editing Wikipedia ten years ago this autumn, cut way back a few years ago, and only became involved with the chapter after I initiated a memorial editathon for Dr Adrianne Wadewitz in May. I ended up volunteering for Wikimania, and one thing led to another. My background is in lecturing. I have an MBA and spent two years as a projects manager. In my spare time I attempt to resuscitate Mary Wollstonecraft.

My work My role is to address the systemic bias in Wikipedia and related projects. Encourage more women to start to edit, and to continue editing Improve the coverage of women in Wikipedia Specifically, run editathons around Ada Lovelace Day
