Transylvania University on\nMarch 2 will host its third annual Liberal Arts + Feminism Wikipedia Edit-a-thon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Participants will edit entries on the popular online encyclopedia to expand the presence of women in liberal arts fields\u2014from business to writing to science. The event also empowers more women to be editors on the platform.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The public is encouraged to\nattend the Edit-a-thon from 1-5 p.m. in the library\u2019s Dugi Academic Center for\nExcellence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The university will offer tutorials for beginning Wikipedians\u2014and faculty, librarians and students will offer support to the editors and article creators throughout the process. Plus, free snacks and coffee will help fuel the writing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThis year we are hoping to continue to grow the Edit-a-thon and bring more members of the Transy and Lexington communities together to help create more recognition for women and trans\/non-binary folks on Wikipedia in a wide variety of fields,\u201d said Emily Goodman, a co-organizer and assistant professor of art history.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The impact of the previous two Edit-a-thons has been significant. For instance, the articles edited or created at last year\u2019s event alone were viewed 2.72 million times within the following month.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The event also is a learning opportunity for students. Faculty from across campus integrate the Edit-a-thon into their courses in the form of various assignments or extra credit opportunities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe have found that the project helps students to understand new forms of collaborative work, develop a new appreciation for scholarship and research methods, and cultivate a sense of ownership and activism on a digital platform,\u201d said Kerri Hauman, co-organizer and assistant professor of writing, rhetoric and communication.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
