Come contribute to the world's most popular encyclopedia! Have no experience with editing Wikipedia? We'll teach you!

Anyone with an interest in editing collaboratively and having a great time is encouraged to attend. Bring a laptop and power cord!

Water Edit-a-thon is an innovative approach to improving content and access to water resources in Wikipedia. This project is hosted in collaboration with Colorado State University Libraries with the goal of creating and improving Wikipedia articles about water in the West. No specialized knowledge of the subject is needed; we'll have librarians, subject experts and library and archival resources on hand to assist as well as a list of suggested topics. There will be free refreshments available to give you the energy you need for all your research breakthroughs. The local sessions are hosted by the UCR Library Special Collections and University Archives and the Librarians Association of the University of California Riverside Division. The Water Resources Collections and Archives collection manager, Jessica Davila Greene, will provide content, resources, technology and an introduction to Wikipedia editing by Phoebe Ayers, member of the Wikimedia Foundation Board of Trustees and author of Wikipedia Works: and How You Can be a Part of It.
