Wikipedia Edit-a-thon on 29th March for women

Breakthrough and Women in Free Software and Culture in India are organizing a Wikipedia Edit-a-thon in collaboration with Wikimedia India to create articles on Women Parliamentarians and Women Scientists in India on Wikipedia to highlight the contributions of women to events in history and contemporary society.

Through this event we encourage women and transwomen to contribute to Wikipedia and increase the quality of articles related to women. This event aims at creating new articles, expanding the existing stubs and translating English articles to various Indic Languages. It is part of the series of month long events going on during Women’s History Month.
