One editatone The 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. To this end, from Wikisphere and in coordination with Medialab Slaughterhouse (@medialabmatadero), we invite you to participate in an editatona dedicated to the publication of articles on relevant lesbians.
In the framework of the celebration of the International LGBT Pride Day (28 June), we want to make visible those lesbians who have contributed significantly in different areas and that, because of their sexual orientation, have historically been silenced or excluded from the official narrative. We will edit collectively so that their trajectories are present in Wikipedia and are part of the free knowledge that we build among all.
This activity is organized within the framework of the international campaign Wiki Loves Pride, driven by Wikimedia LGBT (@wmlgbt.org), a group of users who support the LGBT+ community and represent LGBT+ content in Wikimedia projects and with whom we regularly collaborate in the creation of content for the Wikiproject:LGBT.
