The Q-SORT Project – A new Measurement Paradigm in Electron Microscopy (H2020-FETOPEN) organizes its second Wikipedia Edit-a-thon.

The goal of this event was to edit and update descriptions in Wikipedia of concepts such as electron vortex beams, two slit experiments with electrons and synthetic holography, where information gaps currently exist (see below). The event is organised in collaboration with Wikimedia Italia.

The Q-SORT Wikipedia Edit-a-thon is meant for anybody who uses Wikipedia and we invites scientists, researchers and Ph.D students to participate. It is a great occasion to learn how Wikipedia works and get together.


What do the Edit-a-thon’s participants bring?

  • Their laptops(and a chargers!)
  • Their Wikipedia login details (same of them created a free account here)
  • Their enthusiasm to help contribute to the world’s greatest encyclopaedia

How-To’s

Articles wishlist

Pages to be created ex-novo:

A new page like “Sorter (physics)” should be created [ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orbital_angular_momentum_of_light and https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orbital_angular_momentum_multiplexing]

  • Electron synthetic hologram  
  • Kinoform 

Pages to be expanded/improved:

Info be put somewhere (find the right Wikipedia entry):

Pages to be checked for expansion or corrections:

  • Coherence

Refreshments
Coffee and tea are provided by the Q-SORT Project
