How Can We Fix This?● Engagement through edit-a-thons, training opportunities and Wikiprojects
like Women in Red.● Ideal Partners Are: Nonprofits*, colleges/universities, government entities
and beyond
*75% of nonprofit employees are female. These nonprofits include educational, scientific and literary
organizations. It’s time to engage these ‘gatekeepers’.

Avoid conflict of interest (COI)https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Conflict_of_interest
Can I edit the Wikipedia article about my workplace? Boss? Grandma?
Possibly, but ONLY under the right conditions.
“When advancing outside interests is more important to an editor than advancing the aims of Wikipedia, that editor stands in a conflict of interest (COI).”
Shortcut: WP:COI
● Cite authoritative sources
● Don’t remove controversies from text
● No one person can “own” an article or control its content
● Disclose your affiliations

Sample COI statement for cultural institutionsI, User: [username here], am an employee of [your institution], and a cultural institution per Wikiproject:GLAM. I accept the editing conditions specified at that page. I will not make any edits that would not be beneficial to the goals of Wikipedia.
My main edits will tend to consist of the following activities:
– Example1 – Example2
I will modify my editing behavior based on problems cited by other editors or if my editing conflicts with other Wikipedia guidelines. I ask that other editors do not hesitate to contact me, via my user talk page, if I appear to be going against this declaration. [sign here] 21
