Editing Wikipedia Pages

The Wikipedia logo is included for educational. Its presence does not suggest any affiliation with or endorsement by Wikipedia or the Wikimedia Foundation. All rights remain with their respective owners.

The aim of this group is to get together people who have, or would like to edit Wikipedia pages.

Wikipedia is a free, online encyclopedia. Volunteers from around the world contribute and improve articles collaboratively. It covers millions of topics across hundreds of languages and aims to make knowledge accessible to everyone. It is run by the Wikimedia Foundation, which is a nonprofit organisation. It needs people who can contribute constructively and help to keep it up-to-date, accurate, and unbiased.

I have edited existing pages and created a few new pages, though it is a while since I’ve been active. Active editors will share experiences and advice, and we will also provide support to new editors to get going.

The group will meet once a month on Zoom.
