Wikipedia Edit-a-thon on the topic of neutrinos. November 21, 10 a.m.–5 p.m.
An editing marathon to learn how to contribute to the free, collaborative encyclopedia Wikipedia. No prior knowledge required (neither in physics nor in Wikipedia)!
Lumen – Box 1Wikipedia is one of the most widely consulted sources of information in the world, and it is constantly evolving: some topics are missing or insufficiently documented, particularly in terms of sources.
An edit-a-thon is a group workshop during which volunteers come together to create, expand, and improve articles. For a few hours, beginners and experienced contributors work together on a single theme. The goal of this edit-a-thon is to improve articles related to neutrinos.
- - 10:00 a.m.–11:00 a.m.: a warm welcome + introduction to neutrinos
- - 11:00 a.m.–12:00 p.m.: training on how to contribute to Wikipedia
- - 12:00 p.m.–1:00 p.m.: lunch on your own
- - 1:00 p.m.–5:00 p.m.: contributing to Wikipedia.
In the afternoon, you’re free to leave whenever you’d like.
What to bring:
- - a laptop (if needed, Lumen can lend laptops subject to availability on the day of the event);
- - lunch (bring your own; a room will be available);
- - your curiosity and your desire to contribute to free knowledge!
Join us on Saturday, March 13, 2027, for an edit-a-thon on women in science!
