(in Inglis) We're an online group that has formed to fix all of the bad Scots Wikipedia articles, help out the site's admins by teaching them proper Scots, and generally improve the quality of the Wiki.

This time, we're trying "writing drives", where we'll have a week where we can make time to write for the wiki any time throughout. You can write as little or as much as you'd like.

We've got two collaborative editing sessions planned on Tuesday 18th & Thursday 20th too - join us on Zoom! We'll be joined on Thursday by Dr Michael Dempster from the Scots Language Centre, who'll be opening the session with a short talk.
