This page will serve as a list of ideas for Local Wiki edit parties otherwise known as edit a thons. 

At edit parties groups of citizens contribute their ideas based on the space that they are in, or a theme, or any idea that they want to add. They can receive technical expertise from libraries, and coders alike.
