The New York Botanical Garden is hosting a "Wikipedia-Edit-A-Thon" on Jan.
25th, 2017 at the LuEsther T. Mertz Library to increase and enhance Wiki
pages related to plants and people.

They will provide training to all new Wiki editors and the vast historic
collections of the Mertz Library will be available to volunteers for
creating and editing existing pages.

Perhaps this event will spur similar "Wikipedia-Edit-A-Thons" across the
country, continuing to improve the botanical information most
accessible/accessed to/by the public.
