I have other obligations that evening. I think that 15 minutes is too short
to do any significant editing tutorials, but we could talk about
Wikimedia's readership statistics as a way of encouraging them to add more
of their content to Wikipedia. We could do a follow up workshop if they
become interested in acquiring the skills to edit Wikipedia themselves,
which I hope that they will.

Thanks for taking the lead on this.
