Re: [Wikimedia-boston] edit-a-thon trainers? Boston, 11/19

2017-11-18 Thread phoebe ayers
Hi all,

this event is tomorrow! I put together a meetup page here:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Meetup/SBL

so if you're interested in the topic & would like to add articles to work
on, or participate remotely, please feel free. If you're free & would like
to help out on site that's great too - just let me Helen and/or me know.

best,
Phoebe
