Ipswich Lace in the Boston Globe, IOLI Bulletin
April is getting away from me, but I want to schedule a zoom for the Wikipedia project this spring still. Stay tuned.
Lace topics needing help
A partial list of some of the suggested edits and additions that I’ve collected so far. No doubt there are more, but it’s a place to start….
High priority pages needed, Lace organizations
The major lace organizations and museums are largely absent from Wikipedia. This would really help with discovery of lace resources and the lace community.
Women in Lace: Text based research requests and tasks
Requesting research leads or work on the pages for some women who have been important in the lace and textiles arenas.
Art + Feminism training materials
Some groups have already created training materials for Wikipedia editing. You can see some of those here.
The Lace Types Table, a starting place
The Lace Table in Wikipedia was my launching point for assessing the state of lace pages.
Editing in Wikipedia, tech issues
Until the editing videos are ready, the editing pages at Wikipedia offer help with the process.
Enhancing Lace Content in Wikipedia 2024
As part of a grant from the Wikimedia Foundation, we’re editing lace pages in Wikipedia to become more helpful and informative.
