Info about the event
The National Justice Museum are hosting a Wikithon where we will focus on making or improving Wikipedia entries about women and the law. Join us to celebrate the people and stories that deserve a more prominent place in the online historical record. You'll learn how to edit Wikipedia in order to harness the power of the web to share your knowledge.

Editing
Click here to go to the Dashboard so we can keep track of all the editing

For nice easy edits:
 * Add wikilinks using the chain link button to help people find out more - do pages about court cases or the places they studied mention women?
 * Add infoboxes - there's a handy guide here.
 * Check that people are included on lists like these.
 * Translate information between different language versions of Wikipedia.
 * Add people to categories - click edit, then click on the three horizontal lines beside the pencil, then choose Categories. Look at other people's entries for inspiration for categories you could use.
