Valentine’s Day is coming up, and we’ve decided to celebrate by adding to public knowledge about popular romance media and expanding romance’s representation on Wikipedia, one of the world’s most frequently-accessed resources.

Join us on February 14th/15th (depending on your time zone) for a virtual Wikipedia editing party!

This 90-minute session will be practical and informal. It is aimed at those who have never edited Wikipedia before. Training and guidance will be given. Recommended for those who might be interested in using Wikipedia as part of teaching, for those who are interested in learning more about how to edit Wikipedia, and for anyone who would like to make positive change in the world! The session will be facilitated by Dr Amy Burge, who has run editathons at the University of Cardiff, and has used Wikipedia for assessment with students.

When:
