Building a Digital History of Women Lighting Designers
The WILD on Wikipedia initiative was introduced during Women’s History Month, and we are pleased to invite you to our first virtual Wikipedia Edit-a-Thon on May 22nd, 2024, from 6 to 8 PM!
In this virtual Wikipedia Edit-a-Thon, we will focus on two individuals in our field to create and edit their Wikipedia pages. During the event, we will illustrate the process of building these pages for other chapters and individuals, and hopefully inspire others to host their own local Edit-a-Thons to build our online history. Every time we get a woman published on Wikipedia, we have successfully written a page in history!
The WILD on Wikipedia (W-o-W) initiative aims to build an online record of women who have built and shaped the lighting design industry. We invite you to join us at this webinar and contribute to creating a page with your chapter, community, company, and more! Your participation is essential in making this initiative a success!
