National Academy of Sciences Staff Session - Wikipedia

Did you know that Wikipedia is an openly editable resource, meaning that anyone can improve the quality and accuracy of Wikipedia entries?

During this session, NAS staff will learn about Wikipedia policies, editing processes and methods of sharing published research with millions of individuals who actively engage with Wikimedia projects.

Editing training will be provided.

Please bring your own laptop. Wikimedia DC has two laptops to loan. Reserve one by emailing info@wikimediadc.org. Dinner will be provided.
