Hi Wiki-Yorkers,

The New York Academy of Sciences is excited to welcome new and experienced Wikipedians to join us for their second annual Women In Science Edit-a-thon!

This is part of a month-long Wikipedia editing campaign aims to create, update, and improve Wikipedia articles pertaining to the lives and works of women scientists, working to highlight undercovered science stories in the encyclopedia.

This event also coincides with the year-long celebration of the Academy's 200th Anniversary.

With this effort we're also supporting the Wikipedia:Year of Science, WikiProject Women in Red, and WikiProject Women scientists. 

You should also register at the NYAS website:

Thanks,

Richard
