History of Medicine editathon[edit]
Hello again, MaryHutchison!
Apologies for taking so long to get back to you after last week but am just recovering from the flu. Thank you so much for taking part in the History of Medicine editathon and for doing SO MUCH since (creating new articles, taking & uploading much-needed photographs etc. etc.) Just so you know, we uploaded in excess of 500 images to Wiki Commons, created 4 brand new articles on Wikipedia, and improved a further 56! For the event page, click here or to see the whole illustrated story of the event then you can click here: Storify: ILW editathon 2016
I hope that you enjoyed the day, and that we'll see you on Wiki again soon.
Now that you've learned - or refreshed - the basics of editing using Wikipedia’s Visual Editor, I hope that you'll stay logged in and edit or create more articles. I've added some booklets and some links below that you may find useful.
Thanks Stinglehammer, all!
It was a pleasure to help, and I hope to contribute more in the future. I have experience of working with Wikis and am comfortable with markup, but have much to learn otherwise.
I will be sure to get in touch if I need to! MaryHutchison (talk)

If you're not feeling bold enough to write an (other) article straight away, why not try a small edit first, or adding a link? Don't worry about being perfect, Wiki is a constantly evolving entity. Fortunately there's a whole team of editors just like you who can help.
You can't break Wikipedia, but in case you're still nervous here are some pages that you might find helpful, especially the first one which covers the main things to remember about using Visual Editor.
- Visual Editor user guide
- Is your topic notable enough for an article?
- Be Bold!
- Don't let grumpy users scare you off.
- Learn from others
- How to write a great article
- A simplified manual of style
The next up-and-coming Wikipedia event is this one run by Sara Thomas, Wikimedian in Residence at Museums and Galleries Scotland. Details here:
Modern Scottish Women 2 - Art & Feminism
The University of Edinburgh are also looking into running an editathon for International Women’s Day on (or near) 8th March 2016 – details are still to be confirmed but will be updated on my project page here: Wikipedia:University_of_Edinburgh
I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian!

International Women's Day editathon[edit]
Hello again, MaryHutchison!
Thank you so much for taking part in the IWD 2016 editathon. Just so you know, out of the 45 artists exhibited in the Modern Scottish Women exhibition, thanks to your efforts, only two are left without Wiki pages. And being a completionist like Sara and I, I can see that you already one step ahead of me by working on one of them! Kudos! Hopefully, we'll get them all finished between us very shortly.
For the event page, if you need the link click [IWD2016 editathon].
I hope that you enjoyed the day - even if it was enjoyed from afar - and that we'll see you on Wiki again soon.
Details for future events are still to be confirmed but will be updated on my project page here: Wikipedia:University_of_Edinburgh| University of Edinburgh WikiProject or on my colleague Sara Thomas's page [Museum & Galleries Scotland Wikiproject] or we can also notify you through the Scots Wiki mailing list (above) if you haven't already signed up to that. You can also contribute to Wikipedia by checking out the opportunities at the Community Portal (link above) or the Women in Red project will be running for the rest of March. if you would like to contribute to the Women in Red project then check out the page here: [Women in Red Wikiproject] Cheers!

Upcoming events at the University of Edinburgh[edit]
Hi Mary, I just wanted to extend the invitation to our upcoming editathon events if you'd like to attend. We have a Halloween one on 31st October & 1st November, a Women and Religion event with WikiProject Women in Red on 2nd November, an Edinburgh Gothic: Robert Louis Stevenson Day event on 12 November at the National Library of Scotland and with a bit of luck a Festival of Architecture event (tbc). Let me know if any of this sounds of interest. Very best regards. Ewan Stinglehammer (talk) 15:29, 27 October 2016 (UTC)

Women in Red 8th Anniversary |
| In July 2015 around 15.5% of the English Wikipedia's biographies were about women. As of July 2023, 19.61% of the English Wikipedia's biographies are about women. That's a lot of biographies created in the effort to close the gender gap. Happy 8th Anniversary! Join us for some virtual cake and add comments or memories and please keep on editing to close the gap! |
