Purpose
The Marion Public Library Wikipedia Edit-a-thon is a joint venture between the Marion Community Foundation, the MarionMade! campaign, and the Marion Public Library. The goal of this project is to leverage the resources available to the Marion Historical Society and the Marion Public Library, along with the knowledge and skills of local history writers and researchers, to improve the Marion, OH and Marion City pages on Wikipedia. Improvements will include, but not be limited to, expansion of the history sections on these pages, filling in information on notable people, places, and things, adding visual media and photos representative of Marion County and City, and generally improving citations and filling in information as needed.
