Suggested Articles to Edit

[edit]

The following suggestions are based on the themes of MARAC Spring 2014: Film, Freedom, and Feminism. The articles suggested for creation are based on the MARAC program and include notable individuals and a film that will be covered in other sessions that do not yet have Wikipedia pages. The articles to improve are related to the conference themes in general, notable figures from Rochester who relate to the conference themes, and individuals covered in other sessions that have pages in need of improvement. Other editors are encouraged to add to this list according to the themes of the edit-a-thon: Film, Freedom, and Feminism.
