CAVPT Supports Arden on his Mission to help keep us informed, educated and enlightened! All Donations go to support the Wikimedia Foundation. Hello! On Wednesday, July 16th, 1PM EST, I will be putting on another hour-long presentation through Athena’s Advanced Academy, titled Your Guide to the World of Wikipedia. The topic will be on Wikipedia and the Wikimedia Foundation as a whole, including Wikipedia’s sister sites, with special emphasis now how to use them and contribute to these websites. I have been a Wikipedia editor for 10 months (with almost 80,000 views on articles I’ve edited), but I have used articles from Wikipedia for information for much, much longer, and find learning about the site fascinating. The recording will be available for anyone unable to attend. How to sign up: 1. Donate at least $7 to the Wikimedia Foundation here 2. Save a PDF of the receipt for your donation 3. Fill out this form and upload the PDF (put your own information in unless you are singing up on behalf of someone else) 4. Done! From the website: https://athenasacademy.com/about-us/junior-presenters/ Wikipedia is one of the top ten most visited websites on the internet and is many people’s go-to website for research, but not everyone actually understands how it works or how to use it responsibly. This presentation will serve as a guide for those interested in the world of Wikipedia, exploring the navigation of Wikipedia, the goals of the website, the history, other Wikimedia projects, and an overview of the editing process, including the different types of editing that can be done and how to go about it. Hope to see you there! -Arden
