Selection criteria: WikiProject Women's History[edit]

Hi. I see you are putting WikiProject Women's History banners on opera singers, such as Kirsten Flagstad and Isobel Baillie. May I ask what your selection criteria is? Thanks and regards.--Kleinzach 05:23, 9 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

The WP:WMNHIST is fairly new, and I think right now we're just looking to identify a good range of biographical and other entries that would fall under a women's history rubric. The history of women in the arts is certainly one of the areas we're interested in covering. As for criteria, we're mostly not tagging biographical entries of living people right now (though there are some exceptions). Penny Richards (talk) 14:12, 9 February 2011 (UTC)Penny Richards[reply]
I'd recommend not tagging biographies that are unrelated to women's history. (Flagstad for example was apolitical.) We've had problems in the past with banner spamming. It's generally regarded as a nuisance. I think it would be better if you were selective, bannering articles that needed the attention of your project or were relevant to it. Thanks. --Kleinzach 02:37, 10 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
I don't think we're defining women's history so narrowly, as a history of feminism or a history of women's rights. Part of the project's goal is to address when and how women's stories are being represented on Wikipedia, across historical fields (sports history, for example, and medieval history, and medical history, for three sub-areas that have been identified so far). But I can run your concern past the rest of the project and see what they think.Penny Richards (talk) 03:59, 10 February 2011 (UTC)Penny Richards[reply]
OK. Obviously it is up to the project what criteria they use. My point is that there should be criteria, otherwise it is just another mass marking exercise of the kind that can only be maintained (in the medium term) by bots. (I am thinking, of course, of the past history of the Biography project.) --Kleinzach 05:27, 10 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Mabel Dodge Luhan[edit]

Not to be picky, but you inserted a name into a cited sentence. Is that name actually supported by that reference? Yworo (talk) 22:03, 26 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I'll check--Mary Hunter Austin was a very close friend and frequent guest of the Luhans, I'd be surprised if she wasn't one of the "and others" referred to in the sentence. Penny Richards (talk) 22:11, 26 February 2011 (UTC)Penny Richards[reply]
The answer is yes--the name is supported by that specific reference. I'll restore it. Penny Richards (talk) 22:14, 26 February 2011 (UTC)Penny Richards[reply]
Great, thanks for checking. I'm always dubious of insertions into previously cited material as potentially leading to creeping inaccuracy... Yworo (talk) 22:15, 26 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Glad to check. Better safe than inaccurate. ;) Penny Richards (talk) 22:17, 26 February 2011 (UTC)Penny Richards[reply]

WikiProject Women's History[edit]

WikiProject Women's History needs members' input on implementing auto-assessment. You'll find the discussion at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Women's History#Auto-assessment. Best wishes, Voceditenore (talk) 10:42, 5 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks![edit]

Thanks for your recent work on entries related to women's history. I'm glad you're participating in WikiProject Women's History. If you have any questions, concerns, or bright ideas about the project, please don't hesitate to contact me on my talk page. Since you're experienced in editing scholarly encyclopedias, I'd be particularly interested in hearing your thoughts about how we might recruit more editors and get people excited about contributing. ---Shane Landrum (cliotropic | talk | contribs) 00:11, 14 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Members' input needed at WikiProject Women's History[edit]

Hello. I'm writing to you as your name is listed on the members page for WikiProject Women's History. In recent discussions at the project, most notably here, several members have indicated that the scope of the project may need to be more clearly defined and communicated. I have set up a workshop page for this, but it obviously needs as wide a participation as possible to achieve genuine consensus and to allow the project to move forward. You'll find the workshop here.

If you no longer consider yourself an active member of the project, it would help if you could indicate this on the members' page. This will allow us to better gauge how much people-power we actually have. Best wishes, Voceditenore (talk) 18:22, 24 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Women's History Project – Final call for comments on the Scope draft[edit]

Our workshop on revising and clarifying the scope of our project has produced a draft outlining our project's scope and criteria for article inclusion. Please join us at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Women's History/Scope workshop#Scope draft to discuss this document. There's a separate section beneath it for final comments, which will remain open through Tuesday, June 14th. As Cynwolfe says "with good participation, we should be able to revise our project page soon, clearing up the issues we've been dealing with and preparing us to go on to the fun stuff." Best wishes, Voceditenore (talk) 12:40, 10 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Survey[edit]

Hi Penny!

I have put together a survey for female editors of Wikipedia (and related projects) in order to explore, in greater detail, women's experiences and roles within the Wikimedia movement. It'd be wonderful if you could participate!

It's an independent survey, done by me, as a fellow volunteer Wikimedian. It is not being done on behalf of the Wikimedia Foundation. I hope you'll participate!

Just click this link to participate in this survey, via Google!

Any questions or concerns, feel free to email me or stop by my user talk page. Also, feel free to share this any other female Wikimedians you may know. It is in English, but any language Wikimedia participants are encouraged to participate. I appreciate your contributions - to the survey and to Wikipedia! Thank you!

Your submission at Articles for creation[edit]

I noticed your submission in Articles for creation, Wikipedia talk:Articles for creation/Maud Younger. Thanks! It will be reviewed by a volunteer soon.

Before it can be added to Wikipedia, your submission should have references. All articles on Wikipedia should have inline, numbered references after facts, showing the 'reliable source' (a newspaper, book, etc.) where the information can be checked, so that all information is verifiable.

Here's a video tutorial - hit play, then right-click for "full screen".

Here's an example of how to add references:

Chzz is 98 years old.<ref> "The book of Chzz", Aardvark Books, 2009. </ref>

He likes tea.<ref> Smith, John. "[http://foonews.com/Article42 Interview with Chzz]", Foo News, 1 April 2010. Retrieved 2011-05-22. </ref>

== References ==

{{reflist}}

That makes the references automatically display as small numbers[1] which will link to the details in the section titled == References == at the end. You can see that example in action here.

Please add references to your submission, which will be reviewed as soon as possible. See also, Wikipedia:Referencing for beginners. If you need any help, just put {{helpme}} at the end of this page, followed by a question or get into our live help chat chanel at #wikipedia-en-help connect.

Best, ChzzBot IV (talk) 17:20, 5 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Your submission at Articles for creation[edit]

Maud Younger, which you submitted to Articles for creation, has been created.
  • The article has been assessed as C-Class, which is recorded on the article's talk page. You may like to take a look at the grading scheme to see what needs to be done to bring it to the next level.
  • Please continue making quality contributions to Wikipedia. Note that because you are a logged-in user, you can create articles yourself, and don't have to post a request.
  • If you would like to help us improve this process, please consider leaving us some feedback.

Thank you for helping Wikipedia!

Ways to improve Shirley Kaneda[edit]

Hi, I'm SarahStierch. Penny Richards, thanks for creating Shirley Kaneda!

I've just tagged the page, using our page curation tools, as having some issues to fix. Hi Penny. Sadly Kaneda's website and associated websites aren't reliable sources that establish notability. It'd be great if you could replace those with reliable secondary sources. Thanks and great start!

The tags can be removed by you or another editor once the issues they mention are addressed. If you have questions, you can leave a comment on my talk page. Or, for more editing help, talk to the volunteers at the Teahouse.
