Wikipedia:Monthly Music Hackathon

Join us on Saturday, June 10 2017 for Hip Hop Hacks at the Monthly Music Hackathon including Wikipedia participation in a general hacking event. The theme this time is hip hop. Note that this is a general hackathon and not exclusively a Wikipedia event. There will be a Wikipedia workshop here for anyone who wants to learn to edit.

Some people at this event are producing audio and wish to share it. Can Wikipedians help them upload this audio and integrate it into relevant Wikipedia articles?

This event has been introduced to us by some colleagues who are presenting Wikipedia at the International Conference of Auditory Display in Pennsylvania. Thanks for the referral.
