There is such a thing as a free lunch, and you can get one if you are willing to help create and update Wanganui Wikipedia pages at an Edit-a-thon this Sunday.
Experienced Wikipedia editor Dr Mike Dickison will host the event which is sponsored by Whanganui and Partners, the Alexander Library, and the Whanganui Regional Museum.
"This is an all-day event where people will get together to learn how to edit and improve Wikipedia pages.
"Because most people find out about Wanganui and the surrounding area from Wikipedia, it's our responsibility to make those pages as accurate as possible," said Dr Dickison.
The event will be held at the Alexander Heritage & Research Library, in its temporary home at the old Post Office, 60 Ridgway St starting at 9am on Sunday morning.
