Take a look at this, by the way - bit.ly/GE2017TechInitiatives - I am sure wikipedians can improve this resource, or use it to improve wikipedia etc. I won't be doing anything pro-active on the edit-a-thon front but I will offer the space and support anyone organising - If anyone decides they want to lead on this, please keep me updated. All you need to do is promote, really. *Edward Saperia* Founder Newspeak House <http://www.nwspk.com> email &lt;edsaperia(a)gmail.com&gt; • facebook <http://www.facebook.com/edsaperia> • twitter <http://www.twitter.com/edsaperia> • 07796955572 133-135 Bethnal Green Road, E2 7DG On 21 April 2017 at 10:58, Richard Nevell &lt;richard.nevell(a)wikimedia.org.uk wrote: along > the line of the Full Fact editathon > <https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J_-lByiEINw> from last year. > On 21 April 2017 at 10:41, Lucy Crompton-Reid < > lucy.crompton-reid(a)wikimedia.org.uk&gt; wrote: >> I think that sounds like a great idea/offer Ed - are you thinking along >> similar lines to the Full Fact event?
