08 Oct 2019, 17:00 – 19:00
A wikithon is an event where a group of people meet to add pages to wikipedia in order to diversify the types information available. On October 8th, to celebrate the life of Ada Lovelace, UCL’s Department of Mathematics invites people to join their wikithon to increase the representation of underrepresented groups. Leading the session will be Dr Jess Wade BEM (Imperial College) and Dr Alice White (Wellcome Trust).
Interested parties should register at the Eventbrite link above - on the day, bring a laptop to make your edits on. Pizza will be provided!
