ROM E-Volunteering

Hi, Sarahg312! Welcome to the ROM E-volunteering project. I'm Molly McGowan or MJMcGowan on Wikipedia. I oversee all of the e-volunteers. Please let me know if you have any questions and thanks for becoming part of our team! 18:16, 26 July 2013 (UTC)MJMcGowan

Hello ROM E-Volunteer, We have moved to a different wiki project which can be found here: Wikipedia:GLAM/ROM. If you would like to continue contributing to ROM based wikipedia articles please feel free to add yourself to our member list. We will no longer be referring to our project as e-volunteering. Instead, users can feel free to contribute to articles listed under the "tasks" tab. Feel free to contact me via the my talk page with any questions. Thanks --MJMcGowan (talk) 21:54, 27 September 2013 (UTC)

Edit-a-Thon Information

Hello edit-a-thon attendees! I have posted a list of topics relevant to the Chinese Galleries on the edit-a-thon meet-up page. Please sign up for a subject and if possible try to do a little research on your own. Don’t worry if you have trouble finding information because we will help you with research during the event! A few reminders: Everyone should meet me (MJMcGowan) at the museum’s staff entrance at 8:45 on Friday to sign-in at the security desk. We will then travel to the Far Eastern Library as a group. Please also be sure to bring your own laptop, as the ROM will not have computers available. I have also noticed that many of our new e-volunteers have yet to set up their user pages. Please do this prior to the event. Directions can be found here. Also please go to the Get started section on the ROM’s Volunteer page and watch the two lectures by Wikipedia expects. These videos will give you a good idea about what our project is all about. Please feel free to leave a message on my talk page with questions. Thanks 21:30, 14 August 2013 (UTC) MJMcGowan
