ARCHIVE 2016
This is an archive of 2016 posts to my Talk page, to help keep the Talk page decluttered. For archived Talk page posts from 2011-2014, see Archive 2011-2014. Talk posts from 2015 can be found in Archive 2015.
On 3 January 2016, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Rachel Henderlite, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that after Rachel Henderlite's 1965 ordination as a minister, a retired pastor sent her a postcard every year quoting the biblical injunction, "Let the women keep silent in the churches"? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Rachel Henderlite. You are welcome to check how many page hits the article got while on the front page ( here's how, live views, daily totals), and it may be added to the statistics page if the total is over 5,000. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page. |

that is just perfect for me! I am working on my cousin Sebastian Shaw's memoirs and he mentions that he toured some Philadelphia art galleries with her. She gives an account of him as S. Shaw, art critic and historian, in one of her travel books. Now I can see which one. Cheers! ixo ( talk) 19:18, 12 April 2016 (UTC)

On 11 January 2016, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Joseph Mason (artist), which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that a young Cincinnati artist, Joseph Mason, painted uncredited plant-life backgrounds for more than 50 of John James Audubon's bird studies? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Joseph Mason (artist). You are welcome to check how many page hits the article got while on the front page ( here's how, daily totals), and it may be added to the statistics page if the total is over 5,000.

Thanks for creating Mary Dickenson-Auner, Alafarge!
Wikipedia editor Blythwood just reviewed your page, and wrote this note for you:
Don't know what happened with the first version of this! Anyway, just been Google Books-browsing and Cooper's bio of Bartok and this book say it was the premiere, not just the Viennese premiere, so that might be worth a look! All the best.

Hi Alafarge,
I am an American University student/Washington DC, I am doing a blog about Wikiproject-Feminism, and I would like to know more about your experience, and why you were interested in being involved in this section.
Sy1744a ( talk) 21:09, 27 January 2016 (UTC)
Thanks a lot for the reply.
My name is Shirin, and this is my email: [email protected]
I am interested to know why you decided to be a member of the feminism wikiproject (why are you interested in this topic). How often do you make contribution? What do you usually edit or contribute? When did you start on this mission? I thank you again for your help, and if you wanted to add anything to these questions (and answer it too) I appreciate it, and if I think of something else I will tell you. Regards Sy1744a ( talk) 10:05, 29 January 2016 (UTC)

Wik-Ed Women Session #5 | |
---|---|
Dear fellow Wikipedian, I would like to personally invite you to the March edition of the Wik-Ed Women meetup, which will take place on March 15, from 6-10 in the evening. It will occur at Los Angeles Contemporary Archive, 2245 E Washington Blvd, Los Angeles, California 90021 (downtown LA -- map). The building has a pink top with old signage for American Accessories, Inc. dba Princess Accessories ( Photos [PDF]). There is on-site parking in the back, which also has an entrance. If you cannot attend in person, you are more than willing to work remotely, as we appreciate all help that you can provide. Finally, here is a link to the Facebook event, in case you want to invite friends, as we are always looking for new editors to help expand coverage of women on Wikipedia! I hope to see you there!

I had a lot of fun adding in the citations into this! Is Lilian Jane Gould necessarily the best title though? All the sources I see from her lifetime use Veley, and she married the year after she graduated so I doubt she published much under that name. Blythwood ( talk) 00:45, 19 March 2016 (UTC)

Thanks for creating this article! I just linked it to its Wikidata item. Sometimes it can take up to 2 months for this to happen. Because we would like to use Wikidata to count new article creations in the Womenin Red Project, it would be helpful if article creators would do this themselves. It is not hard to do at all. Just search on Wikidata for the article title, and then when you have the right item, scroll all the way to the bottom and select Wikipedia. Then choose en for enwiki or English Wikipedia and type or paste your article title and click save. For artists, this will enable the authority control template to be populated. Again thanks, and I hope I may have tempted you to check your past article creations. Jane ( talk) 08:40, 27 March 2016 (UTC)

Wow, I just looked at your User page. You have really contributed a lot to Wikipedia. I also like writing about women, but nothing like you! I cant believe I was able to write about a woman that you didn't get around to writing about yet. Pure luck! Thanks for any help in improving the article I began. I probably wont go back to edit it, but its fun to watch it grow with the work of other editors. Kind of like watching a child begin to grow all on his own. Thanks for the improvements you made to my "baby." HugSnugBugRug ( talk) 07:46, 6 April 2016 (UTC)

Thanks for uploading File:Portrait of photographer Louise Boyle.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).
Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. -- B-bot ( talk) 18:58, 5 May 2016 (UTC)

Hi Alafarge, I just wanted to let you know that I have added the "autopatrolled" permission to your account, as you have created numerous, valid articles. This feature will have no effect on your editing, and is simply intended to reduce the workload on new page patrollers. For more information on the patroller right, see Wikipedia:Autopatrolled. Feel free to leave me a message if you have any questions. Happy editing! Widr ( talk) 22:20, 29 July 2016 (UTC)
