Wiki Loves Pride

Wiki Loves Pride is a campaign to improve LGBTQ-related content on Wikipedia and other projects in the Wikimedia movement.

The project seeks to create new encyclopedia entries and improve existing coverage of notable LGBT events, people,[1] and places,[2] and edit-a-thons have been organized to facilitate collaboration by interested editors.

[3] In addition to content creation, participants have worked to translate articles into other languages and photograph pride parades and other events.

"[3] Wikipedia editors organized the campaign beginning in 2014 with events registered in at least a dozen cities in the United States as well as Bangalore and New Delhi in India.
