Feel good clipping of the day: 101 women artists added to WikiPedia

by Romy Ilano

Just when you think the world is closing in, all the cool hackerspace in San Francisco are falling into shambles, and nobody understand... Here's a feel good news item for the day! 101 Women Artists Who Got Wikipedia Pages This Week Last Saturday, about 600 volunteers in 31 venues around the globe engaged in a collective effort to change the world, one Wikipedia entry at a time. In the United States, Canada, Australia, Italy, the Netherlands, and the United Kingdom, in nonprofits and art schools, in museums and universities, these people--mostly women--set out to write entries, uncredited and unpaid, for the fast-growing crowd-sourced online encyclopedia.

Fwd: [i-announce@ischool] You're invited to next week's Brown Bag Seminar: A Reality Game to Cross Disciplines

by Troy Massey

"You are the source of Freedom : the price of Freedom is awareness and action" Begin forwarded message: From: School of Information <events(a)ischool.berkeley.edu> Date: February 6, 2014 at 11:24:33 AM PST To: i-announce(a)ischool.berkeley.edu Subject: [i-announce@ischool] You're invited to next week's Brown Bag Seminar: A Reality Game to Cross Disciplines Don't miss the upcoming event at the UC Berkeley School of Information: Brown Bag Seminar: A Reality Game to Cross Disciplines With Benjamin Stokes Wednesday, February 12, 2014, 12:10 pm - 1:00 pm 107 South Hall Educational and civic games are typically preparatory, teaching skills and information to be applied later. Yet the rise of reality gaming introduces a new possibility: that the game directly shapes real-world networks, even as it educates. Networks are a novel target for educational games, despite the vital importance of networks for educational attainment, securing jobs and even civic engagement. Benjamin Stokes investigates how digital media foster civic engagement, informal learning, and activism. He is currently studying how mobile media and videogames can advance social justice by bridging online and offline participation. Previously he co-founded Games for Change, the branch of the serious games movement focused on social issues and nonprofit organizations. Most recently, he was an education program officer at the MacArthur Foundation in their portfolio on Digital Media and Learning. Benjamin has also led the development of original digital media properties: at the educational nonprofit NetAid, his team created digital games and an activist training website that engaged more than 150,000 youth in fighting extreme poverty. Benjamin is a Ph.D. candidate at the University of Southern California in the Annenberg School for Communication and Journalism.

Workshop Area

by mattsenate＠gmail.com

There is sawdust on the floor and on tools, the "keep this space clear" table top is not clear. And various other items are not put away. Please do not do this, and if you see someone doing it, ask them when they plan to improve the space for others to use. // Matt

someone hacking the SudoRoom Wiki

by Romy Ilano

Hey, I just fixed a hack on the SudoRoom main page. Someone is hacking the SudoRoom Wiki - I don't know who, I know this probably happens often. Are there safety precautions? https://sudoroom.org/mediawiki/index.php?title=Sudoroom&action=history I undid the "hardcore jerkey action" - and I saw that someone also undid this shortly before I went on the page. Any idea wh'os doing this? ============================= Romy Ilano romy(a)snowyla.com
