Participated in a First Nations edit-a-thon on 10th July.
Whilst completing a Masters in an Information field at CSU one of my assignments was looking at the challenges of participatory knowledge making for digital scholarship. The research for this highlighted the fact that Wikipedia one of the most open and participatory networks still has barriers to true access and shared knowledge. In particular I am interested in the gaps in Wikipedia of articles about women and also in our Indigenous history. Edit-a-thons like the one I participated in on 10th July is a great way to help increase participation and also focus on gaps. I hope to continue my learning and contribute appropriately in this area.
