About this event
African Americans in STEM Wikipedia Edit-A-Thon is a joint project between the nonprofit BlackComputeHER.org and the National Museum of African American History and Culture. BlackComputeHER.org is dedicated to supporting computer and tech education along with workforce development for African American girls and women. The National Museum of African American History and Culture recognizes that African Americans have contributed to the United States’ Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) enterprise since the nation’s beginning, yet their names and contributions have been routinely overlooked.
Over the course of two weeks, the African Americans Wikipedia Edit-A-Thon will be used to highlight African Americans STEM professionals, specifically, engineers, computer scientists and women in STEM throughout history. We look forward to creating and building information resources for all people interested in African American history and STEM.
Organized by: NMAAHC, blackcomputeHER, and Wikimedia DC

Sample conflict of interest statement for GLAM professionals
GLAM professionals and WIkipedians-in-residence may improve Wikipedia using their organizations' resources while still complying with Wikipedia's policy on paid editing. [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Conflict_of_interest#Cultural_sector COI-GLAM (the Conflict of Interest policy for GLAM organizations)], states:
:Museum curators, librarians, archivists, and similar are encouraged to help improve Wikipedia, or to share their information in the form of links to their resources. If a link cannot be used as a reliable source, it may be placed under further reading or external links if it complies with the external links guideline.
You must include a conflict of interest statement on your user page if planning to edit as part of your professional duties
Sample statement
About Me
I am a paid employee of XYZ Museum/Organization. We are working to make our resources more accessible to the public by working directly with Wikipedia.
Conflict of interest statement
I am editing Wikipedia as part of my official duties at the XYZ Museum/Organization. I will abide by Wikipedia's accepted practices on conflicts of interest, neutrality, and notability. Because the mission of XYZ Museum/Organization is in line with Wikipedia's mission to disseminate knowledge, I will not make edits that I do not believe are in accordance with Wikipedia's practices and procedures. If you believe I have made an error or violated Wikipedia’s norms, please let me know.
