2019 UN International Year of Indigenous Languages 

Wikipedia Edit-A-Thon

Calling all linguists and language lovers! Wikipedia articles are the top search results for most languages, and yet many of these articles are incomplete. This workshop will give participants the skills to work with Wikipedia with the aim to grow our collective knowledge of indigenous languages

The event will also feature guest speakers from DuoLingo!  This event is part of a larger #lingwiki initiative comprising edit-a-thons at multiple locations in honor of the UN International Year of Indigenous Languages.

Free pizza and snacks will be served. Drop in any time. No prior Wikipedia experience is required.

Hope to see you all there!
