24-hour Wikipedia 'Edit-a-thon' launches - a podcast by RNZ

Today volunteer Wikipedia editors in Aotearoa are kicking off a 24-hour edit-a-thon. The event has been organised by Women in Red - a group working to end the gender gap in the biographies featured on the website. They chose this date as it's Ada Lovelace day, Ada being the 19th-century British mathematician who's considered the world's first computer programmer. Dr Mike Dickison joins Jesse to tell us more.
