Engaging activities are key to the success of any student society.

This page provides some ideas for events that are appropriate for Wikimedia-supported events, along with some examples of exciting activities that have been organised by established student societies in the UK. Engaging activities are key to the success of any student society.

Campus wiki-lounge
Sit with a few friends in an on-campus cafe and, with a sign or t-shirts, indicate that you're here to help people with Wikipedia. Help people find information, upload files or edit articles. This is a way to meet people, share your knowledge, and correct misconceptions. This is something that can also be introduced as a stall or stand at the annual freshers' week. See general page for Student societies for further details on getting in touch with WMUK to help defray the costs involved in doing this

Editathons: Improving articles on a subject This is a joint event between a Wikipedia society and another student society. The idea is to get together for an evening or an afternoon and improve articles on a subject of interest, sharing expertise between the two groups.
