This project aims to recruit and train editors towards creating content under the Art + Feminism 2022 campaign to bridge the knowledge gap of indigenous female pioneers in the Infrastructure and Technology sector. The series of edit-a-thon would give editors the opportunity to contribute to Wikipedia on articles related to the discuss.
The training seeks to address notable women and feminine centered projects with less exposure in these sectors and align the new stream of emerging editors with the community policies and practices that have kept Wikipedia's standard.
Some of the invited speakers who are women with vast experience in infrastructure, technology and free knowledge will address participants on notable persons and events around these topics, while experienced wikimedia contributors will give brief talks about editing, neutral point of view, weasel words, puffery e.t.c using the slides and experience provided by the campaign instructors..
