We met on Sunday July 30, 2017 for Action=History: Sunday Hackathons @ Ace Hotel, a Wikipedia hackathon to develop tools for contributing content Wikipedia and user-testing them with the community. This project meets on the last Sunday of every month from 2-6pm in the Boardroom downstairs at Ace Hotel. This is a unique opportunity for New Yorkers to learn hands-on in a technology training/workshop session about the mechanics, practices and benefits of Wikipedia and the Wikimedia projects. Take action to gather, share and work collectively towards a more robust account of history.
