The first WikiWomen's History Month event was held during the month of March, 2012. This event brought together new and experienced Wikipedians around the world to collaborate offline and online to improve coverage related to women's history on Wikipedia and encourage the participation of women editors in projects. WWHM was coordinated by various Wikipedians, specifically Pharos and Sarah Stierch, the latter who serves as a Wikimedia Foundation Community Fellow focusing on closing the gender gap of Wikipedia. The event pulled inspiration from the Wikipedia Loves Libraries events.
This wrap-up will cover the planning process, event successes, lessons learned, and ideas on how to improve this event concept for future execution, on a broader level.
