We're improving the coverage of New Zealand cartoonists and comic artists in Wikipedia!
This is the second cartoon edit-a-thon hosted by the Library and this time we’ll be focusing on the artists behind Three Words: An anthology of Aotearoa/NZ women’s comics.
Dr Mike Dickison is at the Library as Wikipedian in residence for January and February, thanks to a grant from the Wikimedia Foundation. This is one of a number of events he will be running in association with the Library. We’re thrilled to be working with him to highlight the work of New Zealand cartoonists and comics artists.
New Wikipedia editors welcome. Come along, even if you've never edited Wikipedia before; keen writers/researchers and comics fans welcome. There will be an introduction to Wikipedia editing at the start, and experienced editors available to help.
We'll be creating articles about contemporary artists, improving others, adding references and images, and helping correct Wikipedia's gender bias.
You don't need to be a comics expert to join in: anyone can help with editing, researching, proofreading, and adding photos.
Comics artists are especially welcome to attend and invited to donate a representative sample of their work (or a self-portrait) to Commons to illustrate their article.
Timetable and other useful information:
There's lots of useful information about what to expect and what to bring on Wikipedia. Also information about what you can do before the event including creating a Wikipedia account. The more you prepare the more you can get done.
Here’s our latest newsletter where you can catch up with what’s happening at our centre.

While there have been no reported measles cases in Wellington over the past year, RPH said the upcoming school holiday period – April 13 to 28 – meant families could be exposed. Read more here.
RPH was advising anyone who has not been vaccinated against measles to make an appointment for the jab at their local medical centre. The vaccination is free. Click here to find out everything you need to know about the outbreak.
Anyone who suspects they may have measles should stay away from work, school or public places to help prevent putting others at risk. They should also isolate themselves from family members who are not fully immunised.

My name is Caitlin and I am available for animal care/housesitting/evening dog walking in Wadestown and surrounding suburbs starting immediately. I have recently completed a degree in Early Childhood Education and am now working in this area during the week but have been enjoying housesitting experiences especially with animals lately.
Last year we had to say goodbye to our cat Mischief and I have found housesitting with animals greatly enjoyable since I no longer have my own pets. I have experience caring for cats, dogs, fish, rabbits and even chickens and horses (I was a horse owner for 7 years).
Reasonable rates for all services, can be flexible and discussed based on individual needs (generally starting from $10/day for animal care and housesitting for one animal). I have a comprehensive first aid certificate as well as my full driver's licence.
References also available.
Feel free to message me here or give me a txt on 0278213969 to start discussions.
Cheers!
Caitlin
