One editatone or editing marathon is an activity in which several people come together to create new content on Wikipedia, combating the gender gap of the free encyclopedia and making visible the absence of articles related to women. With this objective, from Wikisphere and in coordination with the Ministry for Ecological Transition and the Demographic Challenge (@mitecogob) of the Government of Spain we propose you to participate in this editatona to publish on Wikipedia articles by relevant women in the field of energy and the environment.
This project is based on a collaboration between Wikiesfera and the Ministry for developing gender-sensitive environmental and energy content on Wikipedia. Through several editatonas and training sessions, a working group has been created composed of people from different organizations that are contributing to reduce the gender gap in these issues. The aim is to make women visible in sectors such as sustainability and energy, traditionally dominated by men, and thus enrich representation on Wikipedia.
