Beyond Reading was a meetup organised by the Wikimedia fan club, University of Ilorin. It will be a meetup in which student members will be enriching their experience and skills as Wikipedians as they engage in training sessions, to create articles on Wikipedia and also help improve Wikipedia articles and engage in Wikipedia related activities and discussions.
