WikiProject 500 Women Scientists

500 Women Scientists Wikipedia Edit-a-thon in November 2018

Welcome to the 500 Women Scientists WikiProject, whose objective is to increase representation of women in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) on Wikipedia.

500 Women Scientists is a grassroots organization working to transform the idea of what a scientist looks like, online and IRL. Please join us to learn more about the contributions of trailblazing women scientists while editing the Wikipedia pages they deserve. We periodically host Wikipedia edit-a-thons to bring together our members and celebrate the achievements of incredible women in STEM. No experience is required. All you need is your laptop and your questions!

• See our Dashboard to track the progress of our Wiki-thons!
• All attendees are expected to adhere to our Friendly Space Policy.
