Wikipedia Takes Manhattan!

March 25, 2008 by Fred

UPDATE: Looks like rain on Friday the 28th, we’re rescheduling until April 4th. Please tell your friends, and apologies for any confusion!

Wikipedia Takes Manhattan!

On Friday, March 28th April 4th, join Free Culture @ NYU and Free Culture @ Columbia on a quest to get the best shots of NYC. Bring your camera and a way to get around town for the biggest scavenger hunt in Free Culture’s history.

Each member of the winning team will receive an iPod shuffle loaded with Creative Commons music! Second and third place teams will win copies of “Wikipedia, The Missing Manual” donated by O’Reilly.

All photos will be uploaded to the Wikimedia Commons for inclusion into Wikipedia articles about NYC that need photos. We’ve got hundreds of locations, sites, and things to document for Wikipedia and it should be a really fun day.

Register here, and just show up at either:


NYU
Friday, March 28th April 4th
12pm until 7pm

In front of Washington’s Statue

OR

Columbia
