Survey about History on Wikipedia (If you reside in the United States)[edit]
I am Petros Apostolopoulos, a Ph.D. candidate in Public History at North Carolina State University. My Ph.D. project examines how historical knowledge is produced on Wikipedia. You must be 18 years of age or older, reside in the United States to participate in this study. If you are interested in participating in my research study by offering your own experience of writing about history on Wikipedia, you can click on this link https://ncsu.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_9z4wmR1cIp0qBH8. There are minimal risks involved in this research.
If you have any questions, please let me know. Petros Apostolopoulos, paposto@ncsu.edu Apolo1991 (talk) 16:36, 15 December 2021 (UTC)

 Dear Alafarge, You're invited to a zoom call, taking place on February 11, with the goal of improving the article on Los Angeles to Featured article status! I often find it daunting to approach the Big Subjects on my own—so if you, like me, want a time to sit down with fellow dedicated editors and tackle something important and complex, this is the zoom for you! I, unfortunately, have no way to transmit snacks over zoom; but I trust you to exercise good judgement and discretion in selecting snacks of your own. Hope to see you there—if you're interested, add your name here! theleekycauldron (talk • contribs) (they/she) 00:19, 10 January 2022 (UTC) To opt out of future mailings about LA meetups, please remove your name from this list. | |

Anne Rice Award[edit]

Anne Rice Award | |
| The Anne Rice Award honors editors who have improved Wikipedia's coverage of women writers by creating a biography of a women writer who used a pen name, nom de plume, literary initials, or pseudonym on the title page or by-line of their works in place of their real name. On behalf of WP:WPWW, thank you for creating the biography on Matilda Marian Pullan, who wrote as Mrs. Pullan and Aiguillette. --Rosiestep (talk) 21:41, 2 February 2022 (UTC) |
- Awww, thanks for this! I haven't been able to get here as often as I'd like lately. Hopefully that can change this year. Alafarge (talk) 16:57, 23 March 2022 (UTC)

Help with article about former Seattle Mayor Jenny Durkan[edit]
I noticed you’re a member of the Women in Red Wikiproject. I thought you might be interested in a proposal to update the article about former Seattle Mayor Jenny Durkan Talk:Jenny Durkan#Proposals September 2022. I have a conflict of interest, since I have a personal connection to Durkan. Would you have time to do a review? 1920sportsfan (talk) 20:19, 4 November 2022 (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! |
