You will make your own contributions on topics that are important to you! So, come join us at the Auckland Museum for an exciting in-person event to learn how to edit Wikipedia. Whether you're a seasoned editor or a newbie, everyone is welcome! You don't need to be an expert in Wikipedia or in history but come open-minded and willing to learn. Please note that there is also a maximum capacity of 25.
On the day, you'll be working together with Wikipedians to share knowledge with one another and make meaningful contributions to Wikipedia. The event will include training in wiki editing and experienced Wikipedians will be on hand to help you.
Due to Wikipedia guidelines, we request you make a Wikipedia account before the event. You may not be able to create one on the day. Make sure to not use any offensive language or personal details in your username as it is public on Wikipedia but have fun with it!
