Black Lunch Table's task list is made up of visual artists of the African Diaspora who are under-represented on Wikipedia. We welcome your additions to our list, in fact we need them. Please keep suggestions within our scope of visual artists of the African Diaspora and please refrain from adding artists who already have substansial articles. Our goal is to create new pages and build up under-represented ones. Be sure an artist qualifies according to Wikipedia's notability guidelines.Thanks!
Black Lunch Table Wikimedians mobilize the creation and improvement of a specific set of Wikipedia articles that pertain to the lives and works of Black artists. In the field of mainstream contemporary art, Black artists are still marginalized within our field.
Wikipedia estimates that 77% of their editors are white and 91% of their editors are men. Our work shifts this demographic and empowers people to write their own history. Our sessions and events, including BLT Photobooth and edit-a-thons, equip new editors with the skills and resources to create, update, and improve Wikipedia articles and encourages existing editors to focus on Wikipedia knowledge gaps.
