Welcome to the 100 Days 100 Edits Wikipedia campaign!
Researchers and climate change professionals are contributing one edit to Wikipedia's climate change content in the 100 days leading up to COP29.
We're at a decisive moment in history. Which future will we choose to create for ourselves? Making a good decision, collectively, depends on the availability of factual and up-to-date information to the public.
Wikimedia is a key element in global climate and sustainability communications. The platform is likely one of the largest sources of information on climate change in the world, with over 324 million annual page views across more than 25,000 explicitly-about-climate articles in nearly every language Wikipedia. But, including other climate change -related pages, the real impact is likely in the billions of pageviews.[1]
You can help make climate change information accessible to millions! Join the campaign!
THE CAMPAIGN HAS ENDED. Keep an eye out in 2025 for Round 2!
This campaign is organised by the Wikimedian in Residence at the Global Systems Institute at the University of Exeter.
Goal
edit100 edits made collectively by up to 100 researchers and environmental professionals to Wikipedia's climate change and environmental content, one edit every day from 2nd August - 10th November 2024 (COP29 begins on 11th November). Researchers only need to propose one edit to participate!
