Hey, @CoreyBBaker, seeing if this works to ping you.

We were discussing getting a start on a page, even if you know you might have to leave it as a stub, or (alternately) how to write an intro paragraph.

1. Your first job is to prove that the topic of your page is notable. Really, the first sentence is the heavy-hitter on this task. 2. Imagine this is a fleshed out, high quality article. What do you think the section headings would be? You don't need to cover all of them, but think about important sections, such as audience, history, and geographic coverage (maybe?) in the topic we were discussing. 3. Figure out the big idea for each of those topics.

I think that would probably do justice as a starting article/intro paragraph. But excited to see what you come up with!

Hi there, Oughtta Be Otters, and welcome to Women in Red. It's always good to have more librarians as members, especially those introduced through Wiki Ed. Further to your ideas expressed above, when you feel ready to create a biography, you should look through our Ten Simple Rules and our Primer for creating women's biographies. Please let me know if you run into any difficulties or need assistance. Happy editing!--Ipigott (talk) 08:40, 30 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2020-10-30T08:40:00.000Z","author":"Ipigott","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-Ipigott-2020-10-30T08:40:00.000Z-Women_in_Red","replies":["c-Oughtta_Be_Otters-2020-10-30T18:35:00.000Z-Ipigott-2020-10-30T08:40:00.000Z"]}}-->

Ipigott, Thank you for the warm welcome!

I would not hate feedback on what I have done so far, so I can do better in the future, should you have some time.

So far, I wrote Herschelle Sullivan Challenor from scratch, and have put in some significant work on Toni Stone and Xiaolan Bao. I struggle when (like with Ms. Bao) there is simply not a lot to be found, regardless of how I dig.

Anyway, thanks for the welcome!

I see you've made a pretty good start on Herschelle Sullivan Challenor. I've added the template "authority control" (always useful for biographies as it automatically turns up useful links once they have been created) and added a couple of categories. Although you have listed a timeline of the main developments in her career, you have presented this as a list. It would be far better to present it as running text, as in Toni Stone for example. Lists are acceptable for publications and in some cases for awards but sections on how a person's life has developed should be in normal prose. Have a go at adapting it yourself and let me know when you want me to take a new look.--Ipigott (talk) 10:58, 31 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2020-10-31T10:58:00.000Z","author":"Ipigott","type":"comment","level":3,"id":"c-Ipigott-2020-10-31T10:58:00.000Z-Oughtta_Be_Otters-2020-10-30T18:35:00.000Z","replies":["c-Oughtta_Be_Otters-2020-11-04T21:23:00.000Z-Ipigott-2020-10-31T10:58:00.000Z"]}}-->

Ipigott, Thank you for this excellent feedback. It is not terribly graceful, but now Dr. Callenor's career is in a narrative form. Next, I need to look back and figure out how I skipped so many footnotes, so more will be forthcoming.

It's much better now but you should make sure there's at least one ref for each paragraph. In general, paragraphs should have three or more sentences. If you do this in the career section, you can simply include one ref at the end of each paragraph. Keep up the good work.--Ipigott (talk) 07:29, 5 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2020-11-05T07:29:00.000Z","author":"Ipigott","type":"comment","level":5,"id":"c-Ipigott-2020-11-05T07:29:00.000Z-Oughtta_Be_Otters-2020-11-04T21:23:00.000Z","replies":[]}}-->

As a caveat, I have limited on-line ability right now. My sister broke her hip over the weekend and I have been tending her, but I will respond...it just may be several days before I do. I am in need of this and this. The first one I have not really tried to find from a library yet. I did find a copy for sale, but the price is crazy and mail service to Mexico is terrible. The second, I have written to the Library of Congress (their copy is in a facility that is closed due to Covid), the University of Houston (cannot find it in their shelves), the University of Texas (can only provide copies to students or staff), and Tulane (haven't heard back from). I cannot find any copy for sale and Google says they cannot sell me a limited license. No worries if you cannot find them, but on the off chance that you might, I thought I'd ask.

SusunW, My mind is pretty blown by what you are doing, and I would love to make this one of my projects. I might be able to find others who can help, as well, btw. I'll start asking around. And looking for the docs.

I am terribly sorry to hear about your sister. I hope that both you and she remain healthy, safe, and on the mend!

I've ignored the topic for years, but it is a huge obstacle on WP. People constantly want to categorize women by their nationality and I have to keep explaining they didn't have any. Most people do not understand the reason women had no civil or political rights was quite simply because they had no nationality, thus no jurisdiction to appeal to to demand their rights be protected. I finally decided to bite the bullet and try to work on it. It's daunting, as most sources that cover nationality don't cover the issue and researching every country is overwhelming. But, I am pretty tenacious when it comes to research and just never give up. Having helpers would be awesome and I would be most grateful.

Thanks for circling back to this OBO. To be absolutely honest, I don't know. Lots of books on constitutional history do not address the issue of nationality at all, and certainly not women's loss of nationality. On the Guyana book, since they used the Concept Plan of Redress from 1787 to 1928, it'd be helpful to know what it said about who was considered to be Guyanese. All I have been able to glean from other sources is that the plan was Dutch but the British kept it in place with modifications. Our article on the Constitution of Guyana, has absolutely no data on whether any constitution laid out rules for nationality, merely the political structure the constitution established. So pretty much anything that any constitution said about nationality?

The other book by Vetancourt I know not only discusses nationality, but addresses the issue of women losing their nationality. I don't really know what he says about all of the countries, but for example, he specifically stated that while Ecuador's laws did not state specifics about married women losing their nationality, custom and implication denationalized married women. The chapter on Ecuador was reprinted in a Venezuelan journal, which is what made me realize the importance of the book for my purposes. I think it will be necessary to review his summary on each country. I heard back from Texas A & M today and was advised they have "removed this book from our collection". Honestly, I would buy a copy if I could find one, but so far, every library I have contacted does not have it even though world cat says they do. I even heard back from Google and they confirmed that they cannot sell me a single license for it due to copyright concerns. It's frustrating to say the least.

Thank you so much. You can look at any of the sections I've written for South America. If there is a "Fooian nationality law" article, I think all the stuff for each country will just be able to move into a heading "History". I haven't posted anything in the law articles yet, as I realized that they were all borrowing codes from each other so it would be easier to do the whole group and make sure it is all covered. Basically we need to know when did married women lose nationality, when did they no longer lose it, if and when women could pass on their nationality to children, etc. It's a work in progress, so I'm open to suggestions.

SusunW, Slowly wrapping my mind around this concept! Question: a friend of mine at a large research institution was able to look through _A Constitutional History of British Guiana_ and found essentially three passages that could be helpful (cannot arrange a loan of the book, sadly). She sent me images of about a paragraph per passage. I would say they are a small enough portion of the work to be fair use to share with you, but I am not sure the best way to get you the three images? Can you please give me a sense of the best way to get the info to you? Sadly, she does not speak Spanish, with regard to the other book.

Hello, I found your name on the list of members at WikiProject Women's History as you mentioned being interested in women in contemporary US society & US History, and I wanted to see if you would be able to help with a requested expansion of the Time's Up (movement) History. I've posted a request and link to the draft on the article Talk page. Although I posted notes at a couple WikiProjects there haven't been any replies yet. Would you be willing to look?

Hello Oughtta Be Otters -- With the goal of helping to progress the WikiProject Women in Green (WiG) women’s rights-themed GA nomination goal for 2021, I’m proposing that WiG hold a special editathon event in the fall (maybe October/November?). I can assist with logistics, but I need to know how much interest/support there might be from WiG participants first. Please let me know what you think in the talk page conversation!

Running from 1 through 31 October 2021, WikiProject Women in Green is hosting a Good Article (GA) editathon event focused on the topic of women's rights.

Participants have the opportunity to receive a barnstar.

We hope to see you there!

This user's unblock request has been reviewed by an administrator, who declined the request. Other administrators may also review this block, but should not override the decision without good reason (see the blocking policy).

Request reason:

Caught by a colocation web host block but this host or IP is not a web host. My IP address is 64.62.148.241. The IP range on our primary internet link is: 64.62.148.194 through 64.62.148.254; The IP range on our backup internet link is: 64.60.251.82 through 64.60.251.86. I am a frequent editor and in fact have done some counter vandalism training. I also oversee school projects on Simple English Wikipedia from this IP address in collaboration with SEW ambassadors and have been doing so for nine years. Looking at the blocked IP address, I do not see any record of vandalism - or any editing at all - from this address. I would be grateful to know the reason for the block and get help removing it. Thank you.

Decline reason:

Your IP is part of a pretty wide range that's been blocked. And unfortunately this sort of block is not one that we regular admins are allowed to just lift this way. What you need to do is go to WP:IPECPROXY and go through the process of getting approved for an IP block exemption. It looks like you have a pretty good track record as an editor so I think you have a pretty good chance. — Daniel Case (talk) 20:31, 30 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2021-09-30T20:31:00.000Z","author":"Daniel Case","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-Daniel_Case-2021-09-30T20:31:00.000Z-Appealing_block","replies":[]}}-->

If you want to make any further unblock requests, please read the guide to appealing blocks first, then use the {{unblock}} template again. If you make too many unconvincing or disruptive unblock requests, you may be prevented from editing this page until your block has expired. Do not remove this unblock review while you are blocked.

Thank you Daniel Case (talk. Yes, I had us exempted from this block a few years ago via Simple English Wikipedia.

Hi! Thanks for creating the page on Sarah Haoda Todd, and for reaching out. After some thought I've changed the tags on the article. If I were to make one suggestion for improving the article, it would be to avoid flowery language and editorializing. For instance:

• "On December 14, 2012 their dream was realized with the formal launch of the Indigenous Business Council"
• "Haoda Todd recalls that she had to figure out many of the ins and outs of running a business as she got started. Many times she wanted to give up."
• "Haoda Todd has maintained an active and engaged civic life. Clearly, she has cultivated a voice of moral authority in her community."

Again, thank you for the work you've put into the article. –Ploni (talk) 16:53, 13 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2022-05-13T16:53:00.000Z","author":"Ploni","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-Ploni-2022-05-13T16:53:00.000Z-Sarah_Haoda_Todd","replies":[]}}-->

Last year I was also caught in this broad IP Range block and it seems that my exemption has expried.

I will go to WP:IPECPROXY and go through the process of getting approved for an IP block exemption, but since I can only post when at home, I thought I would start by checking here.

Hello, Oughtta Be Otters

Welcome to Wikipedia! I edit here too, under the username Pppery, and I thank you for your contributions.

I wanted to let you know, however, that I've proposed an article that you started, Angela Jackson (disambiguation), for deletion because it meets one or more of our deletion criteria, and I don't think that it is suitable for inclusion in the encyclopedia. The particular issue can be found in the notice that is now visible at the top of the article.

If you wish to contest the deletion:

1. Edit the page
2. Remove the text that looks like this: {{proposed deletion/dated...}}
3. Click the Publish changes button.

If you object to the article's deletion, please remember to explain why you think the article should be kept on the article's talk page and improve the page to address the issues raised in the deletion notice. Otherwise, it may be deleted later by other means.

If you have any questions, please leave a comment here and prepend it with {{Re|Pppery}}. And remember to sign your reply with ~~~~. Thanks!

(Message delivered via the Page Curation tool, on behalf of the reviewer.)

@Pppery: - thanks, I was not sure. I have a question, however: In the course of checking what was on Wikipedia about each of the two Angela Jacksons in question, I discovered there is another Angela Jackson who was referredto on a number of pages, so I am drafting a page for her, as well (she is a women's basketball coach, although -- in the course of researching her -- I came across a *fourth* Angela Jackson and am considering putting a page together for her, as well (another basketball coach, but of men's teams).

So, if there are about to be 3-4 Angela Jacksons with pages, I am wondering if I should keep the disambiguation page? Or are the hatnotes that I made enough and should I just add more at the top of each page?

I will admit that part of my thinking is that Angela Jackson is a very common name, and I suspect that there are actually quite a number of notable individuals by the name out there.

So, I might have jumped the gun on making the disambiguation page...but not sure if it might not be necessary fairly soon?

Thank you Oughtta Be Otters (talk) 04:59, 16 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"20221116045900","author":"Oughtta Be Otters","type":"comment","level":2,"id":"c-Oughtta_Be_Otters-20221116045900-Pppery-20221116010100","replies":["c-Pppery-20221116050100-Oughtta_Be_Otters-20221116045900"]}}-->

Yes, with 3-4 entries listed then a disambiguation page becomes useful. The commonness of the name does not matter, only the number of people actually listed on the disambiguation page. And there's no need to try to predict the future by trying to keep the disambiguation page before adding more entries. * Pppery * _{it has begun...} 05:01, 16 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"20221116050100","author":"Pppery","type":"comment","level":3,"id":"c-Pppery-20221116050100-Oughtta_Be_Otters-20221116045900","replies":["c-Oughtta_Be_Otters-20221116050500-Pppery-20221116050100"],"displayName":"* Pppery *"}}-->

@Pppery: OK, I'll post the page I was drafting today and add the third individual to the disambiguation page. It is already significantly longer than Women in Red's recommended starter page. Then, as I understand it, I should change the hatnote to a disambiguation link.

	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!

Hello Oughtta Be Otters:

WikiProject Women in Green is holding a month-long Good Article Edit-a-thon event in October 2023!

Running from October 1 to 31, 2023, WikiProject Women in Green (WiG) is hosting a Good Article (GA) edit-a-thon event with the theme Around the World in 31 Days! All experience levels welcome. Never worked on a GA project before? We'll teach you how to get started. Or maybe you're an old hand at GAs – we'd love to have you involved! Participants are invited to work on nominating and/or reviewing GA submissions related to women and women's works (e.g., books, films) during the event period. We hope to collectively cover article subjects from at least 31 countries (or broader international articles) by month's end. GA resources and one-on-one support will be provided by experienced GA editors, and participants will have the opportunity to earn a special WiG barnstar for their efforts.

We hope to see you there!

On 25 April 2024, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Iona Allen, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that Iona Allen, "the only one to ever make a perfect pair of boots", constructed the pair worn by Neil Armstrong on the Moon out of thirteen layers of precisely fabricated material? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Iona Allen. You are welcome to check how many pageviews the nominated article or articles got while on the front page (here's how, Iona Allen), and the hook may be added to the statistics page after its run on the Main Page has completed. 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.
