In conjunction with the City of Sydney, Pride History Group is facilitating a LGBT Wikipeadia Editathon to improve coverage of LGBT history wiki pages.
——-
The free online encyclopedia Wikipedia, is the 6th most visited site on the internet. The content is created and edited by volunteers all over the world.
But it has long been acknowledged that the there is a lack of diversity among contributors. Less than 10% of editors identify as female and 85% are university educated.
The session will be led by experienced Wikipedian Kathryn Barwick and the Pride History Group. With their help, participants will focus on improving LGBTIQ articles on Wikipedia.
City historian Dr Lisa Murray will also be on hand to show you how to use the city archives and general referencing.
Everyone is welcome and no experience is necessary.

This year marks the 35th anniversary of the legislation of male same-sex activity in New South Wales. This landmark in the legalisation of male same-sex activity received assent on 8th June 1984. The achievement of this reform was far from easy and took enormous effort, strategic thinking and great courage on the part of LGBTIQ advocates. In a panel, advocates intimately involved in LGBTIQ rights and reform will discuss the struggle for reform, the community networks that proved so important and the relationships with government that mattered.
A series of events remembering the 50th anniversary of the Stonewall Riots in 1969 and the strength of those who marched in the first Sydney Mardi Gras in 1978.
