BEFORE YOU START...

Step 1: Create a Wikipedia account

Your Wikipedia contributions will be public, so you may want to create an anonymous username.

Step 2: Join the dashboard. 

The Dashboard is a tool we use to track edits and our event's impact. Please make sure to login before you start editing.

 

WHAT SHOULD I WORK ON?!

Don't worry! We will not leave you high and dry. The hardest part of getting started with an edit-a-thon can be deciding who to work on. If you register for the event through our event page, you will have the option to note if you'd like to be "assigned" an artist or cartoonist to work on. If you don't care about being an assigned an artist, you can take a look at the suggested list we've put together for the event.
