Calling all UCL students and staff

  • Are you curious about how Wikipedia works behind the scenes?
  • Are you keen to learn more about UCL’s Engineering history?
  • Would you like to contribute your knowledge and skills to a good cause?

We have the perfect event for you!

UCL Engineering have teamed up with Wikimedia UK to put together a Wikipedia Edit-a-thon.

The theme of the event is “Famous UCL Engineers - Past and Present”. The aim is to spruce up the Engineering section on the List of People associated with UCL page by linking existing Wikipedia pages, enhancing what’s on those pages and creating new pages for any noteworthy names that are currently missing.

We have two sessions you can choose from:

Session 1 - 13.00 - 16.30 (Wednesday 1 June)

Session 2 - 17.00 - 20.30 (Wednesday 1 June)

This will be an online event hosted on MS Teams.
