2021-11-09: Join editathon Czechoslovakia 1948-89 in the Václav Havel Library on November 19

During Wikipedia Challenge Czechoslovakia 1948-89, we are organizing a Wikipedia editathon for both newcomers and experienced Wikipedians on November 19 from 4 to 8 pm in cooperation with the US Embassy in the Czech Republic and the Václav Havel Library. The great thing about it is that we will be able to use the library's extensive resources about Václav Havel (and not only him) and commemorate the 10th anniversary of his death, which will occur this year on 18 December, by editing articles about Václav Havel.

By participating in the editathon you can also enter the Czechoslovakia 1948-89 competition, in which randomly drawn participants who edited or uploaded photos will win beautiful prizes – tin cans, canvas bags and bookstore vouchers.

The event is free, please register in advance at this link. All other details can be found here.
