The idea of this activity is to look for anyone that you might have known in the IT/Digital related areas but are grossly underrepresented on Wikipedia, the largest free online encyclopedia and one of the most popular websites in the world. After identifying somebody, you are required to take action and modify this wiki page for the one you have chosen. Use the practice and power of collective writing to help presenting those who are relatively invisible.
Feel free to use this wiki as a pilot platform to familiarize yourself with wiki style of writing and start off with a draft. You are encouraged to submit the source and writing to Wikipedia.
