We‘re please to welcome the Wikipedia Walking Tour and Edit-a-thon for 2024. The two-part event will be running over two days, the walking tour on Saturday and the edit-a-thon on Sunday.

Women still make up less than 20% of biographies on wikipedia, and the New Zealand Women in Architecture WikiProject aims to fill the gaps in the digital realm and increase visibility of prolific female Architects. Originally inspired by Making Space, we will be continuing last year’s work to increase articles about women and non-binary people who work in architecture and related fields in or from Aotearoa New Zealand, A+W.NZ is fortunate enough to be joined by Lisa Maule, who will be our Wikipedia expert on the edit-a-thon day! Lisa contributes to a multitude of Wikipedia projects that's aim to increase the diversity on Wikipedia, including Women in Red, Pasifika Arts Aotearoa, and Women in STEAM Aotearoa.

Edit-a-thon on Sunday 22nd:

The edit-a-thon will run from 10:00am – 16:00pm at the Learning Labs at the Auckland Museum.

Location: Learning Labs, Level 1, Auckland Museum next to Te Whiwhinga the Imaginarium. Copies of the Making Space and other publications will be available for reference. All experiences welcome! A beginners’ course will be held at 10:00am after introductions, for new editors or experienced ones that need a refresher.

Feel free to come by any time during the day to join the group. Please bring your own editing device. Lunch will be provided at 12:30pm.
