Paid editor notice (2020-2021): In April, 2020, I worked for the 2020 United States Census via Sure We Can. Due to Covid-19, we did our outreach digitally. Part of that effort is took place here on the English language wikipedia and also branching out to other wikipedias, writing about the census. We hosted a NYC 2020 Census Multilingual Edit-a-thon online on Friday, June 26th, 1-4p. In 2020-2021, Sure We Can received a small grant from NYC Health + Hospitals to provide COVID-19 outreach. I worked with Sure We Can to do this outreach on wikipedia, editing the COVID-19 pandemic in New York City article and others, see: Sure We Can COVID-19 Wikipedia Task Force. I continued my position as Wikipedian-In-Residence at Sure We Can on a volunteer basis from 2021-2023.
