Wikipedia:Meetup/Brown College Edit-a-thon 2019

Wikipedia is the largest free collection of human knowledge in the world. Come to Tucker at Brown College at Monroe Hill at noon for lunch and a presentation on contributing to Wikipedia or stop in any time between 11:00 and 6:00 for one-on-one instruction. Don't think you have anything to add? There are so many things you can do to help: write pages, copyedit, translate, do research, take photos, sort things, counter systemic bias, or even rep Brown College on our own page. Learn how to make your own userbox, kick bureaucrat ass, and expand humanity's largest store of knowledge. Lunch presented by the Brown Course Design Practicum.
