Gandhi

I was astonished to see how you piped a link from Indira Gandhi to make it read Indira Ghandi. Did you really think that Gandhi was a misspelling? Johanna-Hypatia (talk) 22:08, 16 November 2021 (UTC)

Sorry poor eyesight. Feel free to unlink it. Kaybeesquared (talk) 08:11, 17 November 2021 (UTC)

Florence Nightingale

Hi, and thank you for the thank yous regarding my edits to Florence Nightingale. I notice that, of the nine "Primary sources," only Goldie and McDonald might be viewed as primary sources; the rest should be moved to "Secondary sources," except that Bostrich, Gill, and Strachey are included as both Primary sources and Secondary sources, and should be only the latter. I'll make these edits unless you care to.Maurice Magnus (talk) 11:22, 23 December 2021 (UTC)

Thanks for this and please will you proceed as you have suggested, I think it is one of the few pages I view regularly where these lists are clearly set up for ease of readers' understanding, though some use 'publications' sections - if it is the subject's own work - only - of course.

Thank you. Kaybeesquared (talk) 16:26, 23 December 2021 (UTC)

The Kenney sisters

Is there any reason, apart from bone idleness, why the famous five should not be dealt with in one article?

A lot of material - parents - eleven of 12 - Lees, Saddleworth - 71 Redgrave Street, Oldham - cotton mill - WSPU - Blathwayt - Eagle House - &c. - is pentuplicated. A combined article would not be as long as the sum of individual lengths suggests.

81.140.215.185 (talk) 20:01, 16 January 2022 (UTC)

Please would you log in if using opportunity to discuss? There is a case for the most notable Kenney sisters to have their own articles imho. It is not idleness to have included common data, although it could be reworded into different language in each article to avoid an argument of it is N-uplicated, but the others arose as more material emerged about their activities. A Kenney Family article with the common biog info. only /mainly could be drafted up without losing entirely the useful individual articles for those who were most to the fore in the UK suffragette movement, imho. Happy to help. Kaybeesquared (talk) 20:45, 16 January 2022 (UTC)

DYK for Preet Chandi

On 24 January 2022, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Preet Chandi, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status.

The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Preet Chandi. You are welcome to check how many pageviews the nominated article or articles got while on the front page (here's how, Preet Chandi), and if they received a combined total of at least 416.7 views per hour (i.e., 5,000 views in 12 hours or 10,000 in 24), the hook may be added to the statistics page.

A barnstar for you!

	The Teamwork Barnstar
	Hi Karen - a Teamwork Barnstar for you, for helping me find the barnstar file - many thanks! Emcee47 (talk) 14:51, 28 January 2022 (UTC)

Hi @Kaybeesquared, Hope you are well. I noticed you made some edits to the IOD's page and I was wondering if you'd be interested in helping me with a project relating to one of their former directors. Charlotte Valuer was the chair of the IOD (2018 to 2020) and founded a charity called "Board Appreitnce" which aims to end inequality in the boardroom by giving the next generation of business leaders experience on company boards. I'd written up the page and had ago referencing a draft of the page (it's in my sandbox) but I'm struggling with the referencing. Do you have the capacity to take a look at it and help me get it up to scratch or point me to where I'm going wrong? m https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User:MIAAccount/sandbox&redirect=no Thanks so much MIAAccount (talk) 15:03, 21 March 2022 (UTC)

Hi @MIAAccount. Thanks for reaching out. Unfortunately I don't have capacity at the moment, but comparing your Charlotte Valuer article draft with the Board Apprentice draft shows that the latter is relying on and repeating the org's own web etc (primary source, is not independent of the subject). Quick Google shows a few secondary sources, and also some 'rival'/ 'similar' orgs. You could write about board room apprenticeships in the round and reference these schemes,too and cite any independent debate in the more reputable business press or academia.

Sorry I can't be more helpful at this time. Obviously any COI needs resolved/declared for the person to publish it. Best wishes, Kaybeesquared (talk) 19:09, 21 March 2022 (UTC)

Alexandra Bulat

Hey,

I was just wondering why you spend so much time on editing the article for Alex Bulat, was it part of your Women in Red editathons? ~~ Kind Regards, NotAnotherNameGuy (talk) 12:13, 14 December 2022 (UTC)

Hello,

yes it was part of WomenInRed project work. And then aimed to improve original (written in an editathon) when notability was questioned. Any further information to improve the article is welcome. Thanks.

My example citation[edit | edit source]

I read an interesting article in the Guardian site.

I have used the 2018 book from Diane Atkinson on a number of Suffragettes pages to add detail and citations.
