What to expect[edit]

No Wikipedia editing experience necessary; as needed throughout the event, tutoring will be provided for Wikipedia newcomers. Women editors, especially women of color and diverse gender expression, are particularly encouraged to attend. If you are unfamiliar with Wikipedia, you might try this training module which will help explain a lot of things, including how to add your signature. Training will be provided.

We recommend new editors begin editing articles that already exist, but if you must create a new article we strongly encourage you to use the Pre-Load Draft Template, you can lift the below Mark Up code and put it on your meet-up or userpage:

Canadian Women Artists[edit]

The following list of Canadian women artists is intended as a starting point; please feel free to add to it or annotate as articles are created. The focus on Canadian artists fits with the strengths of our resources and knowledge in Toronto, but please feel free to work on international topics as well. Note that there are many ways to define "Canadian". Many of these artists may identify as other than Canadian or hyphenated-Canadians. Links in blue are existing articles which can be improved and/or expanded. Links in red are articles that do not yet exist and can be created.


Canadian Women Art Writers and Curators[edit]

Links in blue are existing articles which can be improved and/or expanded. Links in red are articles that do not yet exist and can be created.
