There are still a few places left on our free study day on Friday August 31st. COVENTRY MEDICAL WIKI WORKSHOP http://coventrywiki.eventbrite.co.uk/ Millions of people look up medical information on Wikipedia, but how reliable and trustworthy is it? Here's your chance to get involved and contribute to improving the quality and evidence base of Wikipedia's medical content at our free Coventry Medical Wiki Workshop. Attendance certificates will be issued. Date/Time: Friday 31st August 2012 09:30 - 16:30 Venue: Room 20064, Clinical Sciences Building, University Hospital, Clifford Bridge Road, Coventry CV2 2DX. Coventry Medical Wiki Workshop is hosted by UHCW Library & Knowledge Services in collaboration with Wikimedia UK, Wikimedia Canada and the Global Education Program.

The editing will be led by Dr. James Heilman of Wikimedia Canada.
