Paid Work edit
I don't do any paid work on Wikipedia and am not paid to edit any articles. There is nothing in my job duties as assigned that requires me to edit Wikipedia. I don't have any grants to do editing work on Wikipedia.
Newspapers on Wikipedia Project edit
I am currently participating in the Newspapers on Wikipedia Project initiated by user:Michaelacaulfield and in which our office is piloting this year. This project aims to improve the coverage of historical local news sources in Wikipedia as part of efforts to depollute the web by supporting people’s ability to find credible and reliable local news sources. Our work on Wikipedia will support people’s ability to read laterally, which is an important fact-checking skill. It will also increase the ability to find credible local news sources, since Wikipedia articles rank well on Google searches.
