Hi, Rosie! Ipigott suggested I reach out to you.

I'm hoping to appeal an AfD of the Rhonda Patrick page. Unfortunately, everyone that voted in favor of the AfD going through was ultimately voting on a page that had already been defaced by a number of highly questionable (e.g. inappropriate IMO) edits that made the page, in my opinion, lower quality. I had noticed these on the page prior to the AfD but, rather than simply reverse the edits, I was hoping to appeal to the editor directly with a composed rebuttal of the edits. When I finally found the time, it had already been deleted. This is very regrettable since the edits removed mention of Patrick's contributions in her field and also media references to her work! To have an AfD vote on the article after its best claim to WP:NOTABILITY was clumsily removed is not fair, in my opinion. I don't know if there's any recourse at this point. It's not my desire to push my will on the Wikipedian community, but I do think the AfD vote was undermined by these edits and that some of the delete votes were probably without awareness of these changes. The fact of the matter is that the defacement occurred so rapidly before the AfD, I almost feel (mistakenly or not) they were created with the intent of damaging WP:NOTABILITY criteria for the subsequent AfD. I will concede the possibility of a misinterpretation on my part, however.

I posted a more thorough breakdown of the situation on the admin's talk page that approved the recent AfD, but haven't received a reply from him or her.

Either way... thanks for your consideration.

Hi Snazzywiki - I looked at the article and the templates, and I don't feel comfortable moving forward with your request as it feels like I'd be stepping on the toes of the admin that approved the recent AfD. So I'd prefer that you await their response.

On 20 June 2017, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Frieda Fraser, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that Frieda Fraser and Edith Williams corresponded for 24 years before they were able to acquire a home to live together in 1941? You are welcome to check how many page hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, Frieda Fraser), 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.

Your relationship to Keliana prompted me to contact you both to help with the medical jargon and my confusion with her scientific works. Had it not been for that, I would not have been able to sort it out. Help doesn't always come in the form of editing. Support and networking is just as important to an article's development, IMO. You can "uncredit" yourself if you wish, but I won't. I appreciate your help and support more than I could ever express.

Hi A-voice-for-women, and thank you for reaching out to me regarding the Kim Chestney page. Generally speaking, I don't work on biographies of living people which is why I'd be uncomfortable working on this page, but there are a lot of page stalkers who keep an eye on my talkpage, and maybe some of them will have time/inclination to assist. I don't want this reply to be discouraging -I want to be encouraging- so let me finish up by saying, please keep editing and understand that I am supportive of you, even if I take a pass on this particular article.

A discussion is taking place as to whether the article Lieres (disambiguation) is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.

The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Lieres (disambiguation) until a consensus is reached, and anyone is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on high-quality evidence and our policies and guidelines.

Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion notice from the top of the article.

Could you undelete the Michaela Quinn page, to simply allow discussion? I'm all about consensus, but there was never any discussion. The argument seemed to be that it wasn't even worthy of a speedy delete process. If the article has issues, they can be dealt with. (Refs, etc.) I will be happy to find refs. But this is an iconic character from TV history, and deserves at least a discussion as to consensus.

Hi Rosie,

You wanted to pick my brains out and today is the last day of the conference. I propose we do this after this morning's keynote, we could do this during any break really, or lunch if depending on how much you brain picking you want to do.

Ping me with your reply. I'll be checking my notifications throughout the day.

I'm never sure what you mean by "reaching out", Rosie (asking, showing interest, just leaving a message?). Maybe once again it's a problem of "American" vs "English". (One of these days I'll try to prepare a glossary of Wikispeak terminology.) I was just interested in hearing how everything went. I know Victuallers prepared an interesting video too. I look forward to hearing more when you've recovered. I think you are beginning to understand why I have decided not to travel those long distances any more.

Ipigott, hmmm, thinking about it, I think "reaching out" is US workplace-speak. When I say it, I mean "showing interest in", e.g. thank you for being interested in my sessions at WCNA and Wikimania. The phrases "reaching out" and "circling back" were common in my Las Vegas workplace. But I am clueless if they are still popular or out of fashion. --Rosiestep (talk) 16:37, 16 August 2017 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2017-08-16T16:37:00.000Z","author":"Rosiestep","type":"comment","level":4,"id":"c-Rosiestep-2017-08-16T16:37:00.000Z-Ipigott-2017-08-15T17:56:00.000Z","replies":[]}}-->

Your assistance in helping with the Transition 'stuff' is appreciated. I'll leave a separate message for the editor I am working with - Irwin - since I am not sure how much he is able to sort through talk page messages now. This connection is pretty important since this editor is an expert in his field, can assign article improvement to dozens of students and facilitate adding more relevant content to all areas of Wikipedia. How did you even notice what was going on? Carnegie Mellon University has hosted at least two Art and Feminism edit-a-thons that I have attended and these were well-attended. The University of Pittsburgh is right next to Carnegie Mellon, and I mean right next to each other. You can go from a building from Pitt and into the next building of Carnegie Mellon. I'll have to host you and an event sometime in the near future.

Hi there, Sphilbrick - Me, too; can't exactly remember what we said. But if you live in LA and are available next Thursday, I could really use an extra set of hands at this training event, Wikipedia:Meetup/Los Angeles/Women in the Olympics/September 2017, as LA84 Foundation is expecting maybe 80 people. If you aren't in the local area, then maybe we talked about this virtual event: Wikipedia:WikiProject Women in Red/Meetup/55? Or maybe we talked about creating lists of missing women, e.g. Olympians? --Rosiestep (talk) 23:59, 31 August 2017 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2017-08-31T23:59:00.000Z","author":"Rosiestep","type":"comment","level":2,"id":"c-Rosiestep-2017-08-31T23:59:00.000Z-Sphilbrick-2017-08-31T20:16:00.000Z","replies":["c-Sphilbrick-2017-09-01T00:36:00.000Z-Rosiestep-2017-08-31T23:59:00.000Z"]}}-->

I'm in Connecticut, so won't be able to help you. It was definitely related to missing Olympians. I do a lot of work in women's basketball related issues - just added the missing US basketball Olympians here: Wikipedia:WikiProject_Women_in_Red/Meetup/55#Redlists_.28lists_of_redlinked_articles_to_be_created.29 so guessing you were looking for help identifying a broader group - maybe all female Olympians in all sports in all countries.

Now it's coming back to me, Sphilbrick. So this list, Wikipedia:WikiProject Women in Red/Missing articles by identifier/SR, should contain all the women Olympians who have an article in some language wiki but not ENWP and we'll be working on that list in September. We could use a similar list for Paralympians; don't know if you have interest in sorting that out?

I see you can pick up quite a lot of women paralympians by looking at articles such as Equestrian at the 2012 Summer Paralympics, Equestrian at the 2016 Summer Paralympics, Athletics at the 2012 Summer Paralympics – Women's javelin throw, Athletics at the 2012 Summer Paralympics – Women's javelin throw.

Can you merge this Eleanor Catherine Sperrey with the article I wrote on Kate Sperrey? They are the same person, but the Wikidata list didn't pick that up and I created it from the New Zealand list. Obviously the 1 sentence stub information needs to be replaced with the data I wrote, but since technically Stuartyeates created it in 2012, they should get credit for it. She was never known by Eleanor as far as I can tell. All the newspaper articles and data except the Dictionary of New Zealand Biography give her name as Kate. I don't really care if I don't get credit for writing it, Stuartyeates did create the first article, but I would like for Eleanor Catherine Sperrey to become a redirect, as it is not the common name. Not sure how to accomplish that.

My pleasure; SusunW. In my sandbox, there's a link for my tools page. On my tools page, I have links for WP:MERGE, WP:SPLIT, etc. I just carefully follow the instructions and that seems to work fine. However, I don't know for sure if all of these tools work for everyone vs. only sysops. But I am very glad to help out with any of these requests. Oh, and by following the instructions re what to do on each of the two article pages, and their edit summaries, and their talkpages, attribution + history is handled appropriately. It's amazing that I can do it! When there are complicated ones, though, I ask Drmies for help. --Rosiestep (talk) 18:59, 8 September 2017 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2017-09-08T18:59:00.000Z","author":"Rosiestep","type":"comment","level":5,"id":"c-Rosiestep-2017-09-08T18:59:00.000Z-SusunW-2017-09-08T18:32:00.000Z","replies":[]}}-->

Hi Rosie Step -- I see that you just pulled Sara Plummer Lemmon out of Category:American Civil War nurses and put her in the Category:Female nurses in the American Civil War category. I have no objection to adding her to the gendered category, which puts her in the gendered professional category tree. But gendered (or raced) categories are supposed to be non-diffusing, so that the non-gendered category is still representative. See Wikipedia:Categorization/Ethnicity,_gender,_religion_and_sexuality#General #5 ... Is there something I'm missing about this particular category?

Hello,

Beginning in September 2017, the Wikimedia Foundation Anti-harassment tool team will be conducting a survey to gauge how well tools, training, and information exists to assist English Wikipedia administrators in recognizing and mitigating things like sockpuppetry, vandalism, and harassment.

The survey should only take 5 minutes, and your individual response will not be made public. This survey will be integral for our team to determine how to better support administrators.

To take the survey sign up here and we will send you a link to the form.

We really appreciate your input!

Please let us know if you wish to opt-out of all massmessage mailings from the Anti-harassment tools team.

Hi Rosie! Typing this from my kindle. I've found that I prefer to view wiki on this than the PC. Seems more like a book encyclopedic. Wiki has been less appealing since I got a widescreen hp.

I am banging my head on a wall with this one. How can she be "mentioned" in works from Cambridge and Princeton as one of the most important Latin American poets of her era, but I cannot access one bloody text about her? There are beaucoup book references about her going back into the 1920s, but I cannot open any of them. I sent a request to Sonia Priscila Ticas for her thesis which includes her, but who knows if I will get anything back. Any chance you can access any sources from your side of the world?

I'm not getting any good hits about her when searching from this side. Regarding her works, several show up in Google books, but either as Snippets or No preview, which is just plain wrong, IMO.

Touché Dr. Blofeld; I assumed you understood that's what I meant. :) Also, these days, they don't only pick holes in the article, they also pick holes in the QPQ, and in other articles that the editor(s) worked on recently.

Yes, I am with you on that Rosiestep, too much nitpicky stuff that is focused on minutia. I quit doing DYK when I was asked to verify that Madame and Mrs. were the same when used as a title.

Dr. Blofeld, SusunW: We could always start a "Women of the Week" page on WiR. A small team of enthusiasts could try to put together a list of, say, three to ten new articles each week for posting on the main WiR page. That would allow former DYK contributors like SusunW, Rosie and Dr. Blofeld to contribute and would hopefully attract more interest in our project. We could start by creating a discussion page with suggestions for candidates based on criteria such as quality of the article (possibly starting at C class), importance/impact of the woman in her field, and her most notable achievements (as a basis for a summary). The format could be along the lines we have used for our lists of women in various fields: name, years of birth and death, summary of most important achievements in her field. Perhaps we could take special account of articles written by new editors or new members of WiR. These are just preliminary suggestions to get the ball rolling. In any case, I think we need to do something to liven up WiR in general and this might help.--Ipigott (talk) 10:35, 28 September 2017 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2017-09-28T10:35:00.000Z","author":"Ipigott","type":"comment","level":6,"id":"c-Ipigott-2017-09-28T10:35:00.000Z-Dr._Blofeld-2017-09-26T08:28:00.000Z","replies":[]}}-->

That's a good idea, I like it! Focus on quality is always good. The only drawback I think is that some of us don't feel like editing all the time so I don't want anybody to feel obligated to edit if you know what I mean.♦ Dr. Blofeld 10:38, 28 September 2017 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2017-09-28T10:38:00.000Z","author":"Dr. Blofeld","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-Dr._Blofeld-2017-09-28T10:38:00.000Z-Lillian_Molieri","replies":["c-SusunW-2017-09-28T23:49:00.000Z-Dr._Blofeld-2017-09-28T10:38:00.000Z"]}}-->

For me, if we do this, I probably am tied up for the next 3 months. My goal is to finish the year with 1000 articles created over my tenure on WP. Since I cannot do stubs, I'm going to have to push myself to get it done, but I think that I can do it.

I have been thinking about starting a personal challenge, #100wikicommonsdays, which should get my through the end of the year. Maybe we could launch your project in the new year, Ipigott? It would be something to look forward to and there'd be plenty of time for preparation. --Rosiestep (talk) 01:06, 29 September 2017 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2017-09-29T01:06:00.000Z","author":"Rosiestep","type":"comment","level":3,"id":"c-Rosiestep-2017-09-29T01:06:00.000Z-SusunW-2017-09-28T23:49:00.000Z","replies":["c-Ipigott-2017-09-29T06:36:00.000Z-Rosiestep-2017-09-29T01:06:00.000Z"]}}-->

That looks like a great idea. Perhaps you could open up your personal challenge to others. I'm sure Elisa.rolle would be one of the most active participants (but she ought to register on Commons first). You must have noticed how many new images she's added over the past couple of months. Maybe we should have a special slot for videos, with assistance from Victuallers. As for "Women of the Week", we could perhaps think of starting something along those lines in February. It looks as if your #100wikicommonsdays will run into January if you launch it in October.--Ipigott (talk) 06:36, 29 September 2017 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2017-09-29T06:36:00.000Z","author":"Ipigott","type":"comment","level":4,"id":"c-Ipigott-2017-09-29T06:36:00.000Z-Rosiestep-2017-09-29T01:06:00.000Z","replies":["c-Elisa.rolle-2017-09-29T07:43:00.000Z-Ipigott-2017-09-29T06:36:00.000Z"]}}-->

Ipigott: not sure what it means I'm not registered on Commons ;-) I thought I was I have even finalled in the Singapore WikiLoveMonuments some years ago... If I missed a step, please tell me I have contributed thousands of photos, mine and not, and for sure I'd like that is sort of recorded.

SusunW, Rosiestep, Dr. Blofeld, me myself, stopped writing DYK when some specific users started to question 1) why I did not paraphrase more a 1899! article which was correctly sourced with year and link to the screenshot; 2) why I wrote "a woman practiced successfully Homeopathy", that was puffery; 3) why I used a published book from 1893 or 1914 as a source, that was not a reliable source... and so on and so on... I think it's a loss of woman representation in the DYK, but sincerely I do not need that hassle. Since I stopped writing them, my life is more peaceful.

Ipigott As for #100wikicommonsdays, it's such a personal journey, frought with anxiety to perform a task every day without fail for 100 days... I'm not inclined to challenge anyone else to join me. I am very proud of my 100wikidays work, and today being my 1 year anniversary of becoming a laureate ("patient"), I feel ready to challenge myself once again, e.g. become a "victim", this time with images rather than articles. But, if anyone feels inclined to be part of this unique movement, here's the starting place: m:100wikidays. --Rosiestep (talk) 19:48, 29 September 2017 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2017-09-29T19:48:00.000Z","author":"Rosiestep","type":"comment","level":9,"id":"c-Rosiestep-2017-09-29T19:48:00.000Z-Ipigott-2017-09-29T09:07:00.000Z-1","replies":[]}}-->

I would like to follow your good example on the EN wiki but could never make it as in every 100 day period, I am unable to edit on at least two or three days; the rules clearly specify you are not allowed to catch up. The challenge seems to appeal in particular to those covering some of the Asian languages. I see Susun, Flo, Penny and Gonobo are all participants too.--Ipigott (talk) 07:23, 30 September 2017 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2017-09-30T07:23:00.000Z","author":"Ipigott","type":"comment","level":10,"id":"c-Ipigott-2017-09-30T07:23:00.000Z-Rosiestep-2017-09-29T21:24:00.000Z","replies":["c-Rosiestep-2017-09-30T15:23:00.000Z-Ipigott-2017-09-30T07:23:00.000Z"]}}-->

Yes, the every day rule is the pain point. BTW, there's a very strong support group on Facebook, which doesn't help with the pain point, but the encouragement is lovely. --Rosiestep (talk) 15:23, 30 September 2017 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2017-09-30T15:23:00.000Z","author":"Rosiestep","type":"comment","level":11,"id":"c-Rosiestep-2017-09-30T15:23:00.000Z-Ipigott-2017-09-30T07:23:00.000Z","replies":[]}}-->

Jackiekoerner I gave this a careful read and I love it. This research needs to be done and I think you are capable of giving it the rigor it requires. So I will give the proposal my strong support.
