When asking a question about editing Wikipedia at the Teahouse or Help desk, please include all the facts needed to answer your question - especially the page title you're enquiring about. Most respondents will assume you are editing in 'desktop' view, and are using
Source Editor, not
Visual Editor (VE). So remember to say if you're working on a mobile or using VE.
Always give context to any question. At the Reference desk, for example, don't ask "who was president in 1900?" without mentioning the country you're interested in! This prevents volunteers helpers having to ask follow-up questions before providing answers. Friendly reminder: the Teahouse (for new editors) and Help desk are for questions on how to use or edit Wikipedia; the Reference desk is for questions about anything else (real world questions).
Lou Henry Hoover (March 29, 1874 – January 7, 1944) was the
first lady of the United States from 1929 to 1933 as the wife of
Herbert Hoover. She was active in community groups, including the
Girl Scouts of the USA, which she led from 1922 to 1925 and from 1935 to 1937. She was the first woman to earn a geology degree from
Stanford. In the first twenty years of their marriage, the Hoovers lived in several countries; during
World War I, they led efforts to assist war
refugees. Beginning in 1917, they lived in
Washington, D.C., as Herbert became a high government official. In the
White House, Lou Hoover dedicated her time as first lady to her volunteer work, though she did not publicize it.
Her invitation of
Jessie De Priest to the White House for tea was controversial in the South. After Herbert's defeat for re-election in 1932, Lou Hoover continued her work, helping provide refugee support with her husband during
World War II, and died suddenly of a heart attack in 1944. (Full article...)
Crepidotus is a
genus of
fungus in the family
Crepidotaceae. Species of Crepidotus all have small, convex to fan-shaped
sessile caps and grow on wood or plant debris. The species are cosmopolitan in distribution, and are well-documented from the Northern temperate to the South American regions. This Crepidotus variabilis cap growing on a branch was photographed in De Famberhorst, a nature reserve near
Joure in
Friesland, Netherlands. The photograph was
focus-stacked from 42 separate images.Photograph credit:
