Wikipedia:Workshop/Open Science Workshop (Geneva) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

An Open Science Workshop will take place in Geneva on the 19th of september 2013, from 10 am to 17 pm (CEST). It aims to map open science references and initiatives on the wiki of the P2P Foundation and to enhance Wikipedia coverage on the topic.

The workshop would be hosted at the Computer Science Centre at the University of Geneva. It is to be part of an Open and Citizen Science HackDay within the Open Knowledge Conference. It has been coordinated by the P2P Foundation, HackYourPhD and several wikipedians.

The workshop is based on a formula developed by the P2P Foundation : the Wikisprint. As its name suggests, the wikisprint targets to get a maximum of contributions within a short time frame (a day for instance) on one or several wikis.
