WikiAPA Edit-a-thon: "We Are Here" to Stay
- Take this opportunity to get involved with the Smithsonian Asian Pacific American Center (APAC), The Bernice Pauahi Bishop Museum, and the Smithsonian American Women’s History Initiative by joining us for the WikiAPA Edit-a-thon: "We Are Here" to Stay!
- This event’s purpose is to continue the work of our previous “WikiAPA Edit-a-thon: We Are Here” to ensure pivotal Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders figures are represented on Wikipedia and Wikidata. Specifically, the event’s work list centers the people from the newly published anthology We Are Here: 30 Inspiring Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders Who Shaped the United States, which features the stories of Asian American and Pacific Islander women, nonbinary, third gender, and transgender people.
- As one of the web’s most visited reference sites, Wikipedia serves as a starting point for many who are looking to learn about art, history, and science. However, less than 19% of Wikipedia biographies in English represent women, and less than 10% of Wikipedia editors identify as women. There are considerable gaps on Wikipedia related to Asian American and Pacific Islander history as well as topics about nonbinary and transgender people.
- To fill the gap, this event encourages the collaboration between and cultural heritage professionals to contribute their knowledge and expertise. During this event, attendees of all wiki experience levels will learn the basics of how to edit Wikipedia by updating articles related to the We Are Here anthology.
- This event is planned in conjunction with the Smithsonian Asian Pacific American Center, the Bernice Pauahi Bishop Museum, and the Smithsonian American Women's History Initiative, a multiyear undertaking to document, research, collect, display, and share the history of women in the United States.
- We Are Here is published by the Smithsonian Institution and Running Press Kids and you can find a copy here.
