If you are interested in organizing an Art + Feminism Wikipedia Edit-a-thon, join the listserv

On February 1st, 2014, we organized a multi-location editathon around the theme of Art+Feminism. 150 people met at the main location, Eyebeam Art and Technology Center in New York City, to edit Wikipedia entries on women, art, feminism, and related subjects. They were joined by another 500 people in 30 satellite locations—libraries, museums, galleries, and non-profits—in 6 countries.

No one keeps records on these things, but it seems as if this may have been one of, if not the largest and most successful multi-location editathons. We are documenting our process to help those who might want to replicate it with this set of guidelines for organizing a multi-location themed edit-a-thon.
