Wikipedia Edit-A-Thon Manila: Discuss, Edit, Review, Contribute and Collaborate on Wikipedia

Wazzup Pilipinas!

Everybody is invited! Come to the first Wikipedia Edit-A-Thon in the Philippines!

Organized by Wikimedia Philippines, the Wikipedia Edit-a-thon Manila on May 31 will be the first Edit-a-thon organized in the Philippines.

And what is a Wikipedia Edit-a-thon?

Wikipedia Edit-a-thons are social events where experienced Wikipedians and Wikimedians, newbies, and other people interested in Wikipedia can meet offline to discuss, edit, review, contribute, and collaborate on Wikipedia and its sister projects like Wikimedia Commons.

At Wikimedia Philippines, the Edit-a-thon on May 31 will be a combination of a meetup for experienced local Wikipedia editors, and a chance to introduce Wikipedia editing to interested newbies who want to contribute to the growing body of knowledge in Wikipedia.
