Welcome to the Nashville meetup page! Listed here are both past and future meetups. Basically, interested people (mostly Wikipedia editors) occasionally get together at various meeting places around the world to meet each other and have some fun. Not only does it provide an opportunity to meet other Wikipedians face-to-face, but also to share what we know in a more relaxed and personal setting. Overall, a meetup is an excellent opportunity to meet new friends. If you are interested in Wikipedia or other Wikimedia projects—regardless of your level of experience or involvement—or if you are otherwise involved with free content, you are invited and welcome.
An invites list was created in May 2017, with the intent that invites for upcoming events will be sent to it. Feel free to add yourself to the list!
Come out and use your research and writing skills to help improve existing articles and add new pages about women in science & engineering. Due to the pandemic, this event will be hosted virtually on the Zoom platform this year. We will have two sessions from 5:00-7:00 PM CST on January 18th and 19th (Monday and Tuesday), but the platform will be open all week so everyone may contribute at their leisure.

Join us in Nashville as we participate in Wikipedia Asian Month by creating articles on Asian-related topics!
On November 14, Vanderbilt University Jean and Alexander Heard Library will be hosting a Wikipedia Asian Month edit-a-thon. Wikipedia Asian Month is a global month-long event, where hundreds of Wikipedians from all around the world create thousands of articles on Asian topics. We plan to participate in this event through our edit-a-thon at Vanderbilt University Fine Arts Gallery.
Breakfast, coffee and tea will be available. Anyone with an interest in the cause and editing is welcome to join - no prior editing experience is required!
