English subtitles for clip: File:Art and Feminism Wikipedia Edit-a-thon, February 1, 2014.webm

1
00:00:07,107 --> 00:00:12,412
We are at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago, 
in the John M. Flaxman Library

2
00:00:12,545 --> 00:00:18,685
And we are one of the satellite sites for the Art+Feminism 
Wikipedia edit-a-thon

3
00:00:18,918 --> 00:00:21,321
that's taking place today 
on February first

4
00:00:21,287 --> 00:00:26,626
Its a way to bring the female voices, female writers, 
female editors into the Wikipedia community

5
00:00:26,626 --> 00:00:31,131
and we're concentrating on art, 
obviously, and feminism

6
00:00:31,131 --> 00:00:35,668
and just trying to either increase 
the number of artists that are presented

7
00:00:35,668 --> 00:00:39,406
that are female artists and/or add some more citations or to beef-up

8
00:00:39,406 --> 00:00:43,410
the existing articles that are already 
in Wikipedia right now.

9
00:00:44,611 --> 00:00:46,880
Just grab this. 
Right.

10
00:00:49,049 --> 00:00:52,318
And make sure you get that, too, because that's why we did that thing.

11
00:00:53,686 --> 00:00:55,355
Right. 
See that?

00:00:55,889 --> 00:00:58,358
[Holly Stec Dankert] 
You know, it's another snowy day in Chicago,

13
00:00:58,324 --> 00:01:03,163
which, of course we were not happy about, 
but people came in force.

14
00:01:03,163 --> 00:01:07,600
A lot of them are newcomers and they 
have not done a Wikipedia entry before.

15
00:01:08,368 --> 00:01:13,773
There was something about studies that said 
there isn't a lot of content on women in Wikipedia

16
00:01:13,773 --> 00:01:17,010
and theirs also not a lot of people who edit Wikipedia who are women

17
00:01:17,010 --> 00:01:22,015
so were just trying to make it known there should be more women editors

18
00:01:22,849 --> 00:01:27,854
but also should reflect a larger population - including women

19
00:01:27,887 --> 00:01:33,393
its actually happening simultaneously all over the country and other parts of the world as well

20
00:01:33,393 --> 00:01:39,199
and people can do this from anywhere they have internet access and participate online

21
00:01:39,199 --> 00:01:42,168
so far they've had a lot of questions on how to actually

22
00:01:42,168 --> 00:01:47,273
edit and get started on Wikipedia and he had a number of questions

23
00:01:47,273 --> 00:01:51,845
about getting sources so that there entry's actually stay in Wikipedia

24
00:01:51,845 --> 00:01:56,216
and there aren't any questions about validity the validity of the information

25
00:01:56,449 --> 00:01:59,919
seeing what comes out of this and seeing how it sort of continues to grow

26
00:01:59,919 --> 00:02:04,324
as people have experienced working in Wikipedia and editing and they will feel conformable

27
00:02:04,324 --> 00:02:08,194
to continue adding entry's on women or other things as well
