Wikipedia:WikiProject Wikipedians aged 70 and older

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Welcome to the the Senescent Order of Wikipedians. The purpose of this project is to gather Wikipedians over 70 years of age for mutual support and encouragement in the editing and improvement of our encyclopedia: our enduring legacy. All members and supporters are urged to propose collaborations that we can undertake on our project talk page. If you want to receive information about future project activities, please add your name to our notice list.

Our goals

[edit]
  • To support collaboration and communication among members for the advancement and improvement of Wikipedia and the Wikimedia movement.
  • To work with WikiProject Ageing and culture to create and enhance articles about ageing and older people.
  • To encourage older people, retired people, and soon-to-be-retired people to participate in Wikipedia both for the advancement of the encyclopedia and for their own personal enjoyment.
  • To encourage older people to share their experience and expertise for the improvement of Wikipedia.
  • To encourage older users to use their experience and expertise to help younger and less experienced users.
  • To encourage participation in local and regional Wikimedia events.
  • To sponsor Wikipedia meetings and classes at places where older people gather.
  • To advocate for the elimination of ageism and sexism in Wikipedia and the Wikimedia movement.
