Dear all, Women of India are conducting a series of edit-a-thons and meetups in March to celebrate the International Women's day. The goal of the month-long event is to encourage more women to contribute to Wikipedia and increase representation of articles related to women in Wikipedia. The co-ordination page for the event can be viewed here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:WHMIN13
The main event will happen Nirmala Institute of Education, Altinho,Goa on 8th March 2013. This event will be followed by a series of online edit-a-thons during which articles which are primarily of importance to Indian women will be created. The first online edit-a-thon will last for 3 days, from 8th to 10th March 2013. There would be one edit-a-thon every weekend. All are invited to sign up for the event. Those who cannot make it to Goa can join us remotely. Women, transwomen, Indians and those interested in creating articles related to Indian women are particularly encouraged.
