Edit-a-thon
ICANNWiki is the indispensable resource for the ICANN community and people interested in internet governance. As an open platform managed by the community for the community, we provide valuable, up-to-date information that can be hard to find elsewhere.
ICANNWiki is independent from ICANN. In line with traditional Wiki Values, we maintain a Neutral Point of View in our content creation methods and site usage policies.
Sponsor for exposure. For the ultimate exposure at an ICANN meeting, sponsor a Playing Card Deck for $20,000. With the revival of ICANNWiki, the longstanding tradition of Playing Cards has had a major glow-up, and your organization will receive the credit for keeping it going. See all Playing Card Decks to learn more.
Guidelines
- Sponsors can decide who goes on a maximum of 6 cards, 4 of which can be of their choosing in addition to the 2 jokers. One individual per organization can be represented per the entire deck.
- Sponsors can brainstorm, collaborate, and give input on the deck theme before the artist begins making the illustrations. After the artist begins designing and drawing the deck, they have creative license to create and draw the cards.
- Sponsors can and should offer input and feedback on the card back and box but this information must be provided as early in the process as possible and at least 3 weeks before the deck design is sent to the cardmaker to ensure that the decks are made and shipped in time for the ICANN meeting.
- ICANNWiki generally makes and ships 1,000 decks, which sponsors can hand out at their booth.
Sponsor for year-round impact. Ensure that ICANNWiki remains an indispensable, independent resource for everyone interested in Internet Governance, managed by the community for the community.

An ICANNWiki Edit-a-thon is typically a sponsored community event held at ICANN and other Internet Governance fora. The event is a chance for conference attendees to collectively engage in content creation and knowledge building. Typically, the event takes place at a defined location and time with attendees bringing their own laptops. The goal is to refine, edit and expand upon topics relevant to the attendees. Newer editors are given the chance to learn new wiki editing skills.
A common goal of an Edit-a-thon is to expand or highlight commonly marginalized actors or ideas within any given topic. Since some wikis rely on a smaller group of editors, an internal bias may arise. Edit-a-thons work to correct that bias or strengthen content that may be important, but has been somehow overlooked.
