SUMMARY:Hidden Gems Editathon
DESCRIPTION:Coverage of Scottish heritage sites on Wikipedia\, and other Wikimedia projects\, is not as extensive as it should be\, and does not reflect the sum of knowledge held in the various local history collections of Scotland. \nThere are six UNESCO world heritage sites in Scotland\, and so many more that are right in our back garden. In 2017\, Dig It! ran six events on April 18\, to celebrate those world heritage sites. Over the summer\, they ran a competition to find Scotland’s favourite “Hidden Gems”. The six winners of the public vote were: \n\nGovan Stones\nArdrossan Castle\nJames Watt’s Cottage\nLincluden Collegiate Church\nThe Howff\, Dundee\nCampbeltown Picture House\n\nIn partnership with the Scottish Library and Information Council\, this editathon will seek to redress that imbalance. \nThis will be the first editathon event for the new Wikimedian residency at SLIC. It provides an opportunity to partner with various local public library services in order to find good quality secondary sources which can be used to improve the on-wiki coverage of Scotland’s history\, heritage and archaeology. It also provides an opportunity to introduce history\, heritage\, archaeology and library/information professionals to learn more about Wikipedia/media and its usefulness for their sector. \nNo experience is necessary\, as training will be given\, and SLIC’s Wikimedian in Residence Sara Thomas will be on hand to offer support. \nThe session is open to anyone\, however it is primarily aimed at History\, Heritage\, Archaeology and Library students and professionals. \nClick here to learn more about the event and how to sign up \n  \nHeader imaged: Cropped Dundee Howff burial ground grave 2\, Yottanesia (Wikimedia Commons)\, Public Domain
