Edit-a-thon - ICANN 54/en

About

ICANNWiki is a small team of editors and contributors who have helped shape over 5,000 articles about ICANN, the DNS and Internet governance as a whole. Our goal is to continue to create and collaborate on relevant and educational articles that serve as a touchstone for our community. An edit-a-thon is a small, but powerful tool to start, grow or edit the information on ICANNWiki, and build a community of contributors.

Our Edit-a-thon is built to be a teaching and learning tool. Wiki-novices and experts join together to add to our collective knowledge surrounding the latest happenings in Internet governance and ICANN. It is our goal to build a wiki that reflects the expertise and experience of conference attendees, scholars and journalists. Please join ICANNWiki and your fellow attendees in creating a fun, educational event.

To celebrate our contributions to ICANNWiki during the Edit-a-thon, we will hold an Edit-a-thon Reception with door prizes and light catering. This event is open to all who helped shape ICANNWiki in some way by contributing to an article.
