January 26: ART WIKIMARATHON

Location: ANYWHERE
WIKI
Saturday, January 26
Roughly 12–8PM EST (9AM–5PM PST)

There’s a lack of art/artist information on Wikipedia, and we’re often too busy to find the time to contribute. In response, we’re setting aside one day when a crew of people collectively drop serious knowledge into wikipedia about art: from your favorite notable artwork, artist or exhibition, to our soon-to-be-famous peers. We’ll also add structural links to alumni, schools and categories like collective art groups, non profit orgs, etc.

Participants include:
Eyebeam Senior Fellows Steve Lambert and Michael Mandiberg; Marisa Olson, Bennett Williamson, Joe DelPesco aka Mr. Collective Foundation, and Jamie Wilkinson. EVERYONE IS WELCOME!

Thank's to Lucas Ihlein from NUCA for the tip
(Also worth taking a look at a call out to improve information on Australian artist-run initiatives in NUCA's discussion area.)
