Thank you Gerda Arendt, it nearly wasn't as it got pulled from the front page queue once before because someone didn't read the discussion on the nomination page. Had it not been for Filelakeshoe's efforts while I was unavailable and on a plane, it would likely not have run. I really, really am discouraged about contributing to DYK and cannot figure out how you stay so positive and contribute there, when so many seem to try to keep stuff from appearing rather than working towards presenting quality material.

SusunW, yup! I recently came across Mary van Kleeck via the random pages button and found her fascinating, so I was able to dig up some sources to expand the article - she did so much cool stuff.

Every time you ask me for help, Gerda Arendt, it seems I am busy with real world stuff, so today, I took the time to review Schumann. I think I am not good at doing reviews, as it makes me very uncomfortable to be critical, but I hope that it helps. If you have any questions about what I wrote, just ask. And thank you for your constant encouragement. It really does mean a lot.

First: good wishes for real life! We just sang an outstanding concert! - Next: don't feel obliged, - it's just that my experience with quality articles about women is low, and yours high, and I'd like to profit - for the article. Next: no time stress. She just was in focus for her bicentenary, had the google doole, and still only 7k views that day (but 10k+ with the piano concerto DYK). Going further is an act of defiance ;) - 18 September, - long time to go. Defiance: I was unhappy that Márta Kurtág, another woman who played the piano for more than 60 years - didn't appear on In the news (ITN), because if Márta Kurtág had been an American man, she would have appeared, but she is an Hungarian woman.. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 07:28, 28 October 2019 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2019-10-28T07:28:00.000Z","author":"Gerda Arendt","type":"comment","level":3,"id":"c-Gerda_Arendt-2019-10-28T07:28:00.000Z-SusunW-2019-10-27T23:58:00.000Z","replies":["c-SusunW-2019-10-28T15:38:00.000Z-Gerda_Arendt-2019-10-28T07:28:00.000Z"]}}-->

Thank you. You make me smile. I am sorry that Kurtág could not be on ITN. I am 100% in harmony with your statement "I didn't want to create any rule(z), just ignore one or two".

I always find it weird when people insist that it is confusing to refer to people by whatever name they used in a period of time. People I went to high school with, call me by the name I used then. If they were good enough friends to continue a relationship, they know the name I use now. No one is confused by how different people refer to me. I know from speaking to many other women, this is the same for them, so I can only infer that it isn't confusing, but is used argumentatively as if it were. I find it totally bizarre for someone who does not know me to refer to me by my first name. Thus, it would never occur to me to refer to a biographical subject in that manner (male or female or non-binary/fluid). Wikipedia gets hung up on so many things that I just don't understand, as they are not logical. I didn't know John, but he and DGG expressed my thoughts on the subject well.

It's certainly a more informative article. I had a feeling expanding it would generate more red links to notable women. I added the identifiers to Wikidata...but a bot would be even better.

Hi, SusunW! I did some light copy edit on Annie MacDonald Langstaff. Here are a couple tiny notes ahead of the GA review:

• head partner Samuel William Jacobs, K.C. What does K.C. mean? If it's unimportant to the article, it could probably be omitted.
• That year [] became the first woman to serve as a court stenographer in the June Special Session of the Montreal Criminal Court. Missing the subject here.

Great article and an interesting read! – Reidgreg (talk) 17:22, 21 November 2019 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2019-11-21T17:22:00.000Z","author":"Reidgreg","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-Reidgreg-2019-11-21T17:22:00.000Z-Copy_edit_of_Annie_MacDonald_Langstaff","replies":["c-SusunW-2019-11-21T18:12:00.000Z-Reidgreg-2019-11-21T17:22:00.000Z"]}}-->

Reidgreg K.C. is King's Counsel, I've included a link, very well-known distinction in the period. Good catch on the lack of a subject. A prior edit changed the sentence from "Langstaff graduated in 1914 with a Bachelor of Civil Law, as first in her class in both criminal and company law, finishing fourth overall with first-class honours and that year became the first woman to serve as a court stenographer in the June Special Session of the Montreal Criminal Court" to the less run-on format that is there now, but in the process, eliminated a subject.

Reidgreg, I am never embarrassed when I make a mistake. In my mind, the millions of times we do something right teach us nothing, but when we make an error, it allows us to grow. I embrace my screw ups, though admittedly, I must investigate the root of them so that I know how it happened :).

It can be surprising that the English language has only practices, not rules. Hence, differing styles.

No worries, it was a pleasure. I think there is definitely a thread of pacifism amongst some veterans, perhaps due to having seen the brutal realities of war, knowing that it rarely solves anything, and not wishing it on others. Not true pacifism, I suppose, but a reluctance to engage in war unless absolutely necessary. The number of Australian Vietnam veterans who demonstrated against the Iraq War is an indication of that sort of view.

LOL, Gog the Mild. I have hardly caught my breath from the last one. The discussion came up because I was working on Rosika Schwimmer, an important suffragist from Hungary, internationalist and pacifist. She ended up being a "woman without a country" and impacted US immigration law. Had war never existed, her career would have taken an entirely different trajectory, so it seemed to me that at the very least, military history applied, but my husband argued that it was the opposite of military history, i.e. anti-military. (We love debate :)! ) Not sure what might be my next target, am currently trying to finish up a Japanese pacifist, turned supporter of Japan's WWII expansionism. As I've never heard of the above two awards, will have to look at the links. I also have about 8 articles nominated for GA, so am hoping to clear out that queue a bit.

No sympathy from me - I currently have two articles at FAC and hope to have to have a third up by the end of the week. The area you work in needs more visibility and recognition. (You know that I realise. (Or even: I realise that you know that.))

I shall attempt to press a definitive answer out of the MilHist team.

Fascinating: the next year the Nobel peace prize went to a local hero of mine, Philip Noel-Baker, MP for the place I live.

Get your applications in. I shall personally fast track them.

Want to pick one of those GANs for me to have a look at? Preferably the one most likely to go on to FA.

Well now that was all you, Gog the Mild. I didn't even know such things existed. Do you perchance have a minute to spare to "Britishize" (or is that Britishise?) Women's suffrage in India?

Working on that, Gog the Mild. It's really hard. Mostly what you get on the net are British women of Indian descent who were involved in the British suffrage struggle. I have actually found two images of Indian suffragists in India, but cannot determine if they were published. Given that one is of the Montagu delegates and the other is of most of the women from the Constituent Assembly, they can be dated and are free in India, but whether they can be used in the US depends upon publishing. I have a friend in Mumbai who is trying to help see if more images are available on that side of the pond and if these two were published. Hadn't even thought of maps. That would be helpful, as a visual of the differences in the Raj provinces and princely estates (around 600 of them) will explain the magnitude of what women had to accomplish to gain their political rights.

Yes. I had a quick scratch round and couldn't find anything. Some lovely maps in Women in India. but not one on suffrage.

Thanks for that Gog the Mild. Was looking at this one, but [1] it has far too much detail (rivers, mountains, deserts, well, lines) for my purposes. Hard to see which provinces and kingdoms were where. It may be that I need them to make it less busy, but maybe there is already such a thing. So I'll search for bit.

Hi Susun -- I just wanted to let you know that I am finally (really) working on one last suffragist article (Funmilayo Ransome-Kuti), which I intend to nominate before the end of the year. So please don't feel that you have to rush with "Women's suffrage in India". :-) I've been having a hard time finding space in my life for Wikipedia editing this year (work has eaten up most of my time and energy), but I'm always inspired by the excellent efforts I see from you, Ipigott and others.

Thank you Alanna the Brave. Hope you have a lovely holiday too. The India article is finished except for photos, but with the protests going on there my friend hasn't been able to access the library which may hold the images we need. Obviously they can be added "after-the-fact" but I'd rather have them from the get-go, so am glad you are able to find time for Ransome-Kuti. Hope you have the time you need to work on it.

Hi Susun. I've just been listening to an inspiring interview with Joy Harjo on BBC Outlook (starting around 26.30). As she comes from your part of the world, I was wondering whether you would be interested in improving her biography. As the first ever native American poet laureate, it seems to me she deserves special attention. No rush on this, of course.

On 24 December 2019, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Rosika Schwimmer, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that in 1929 Rosika Schwimmer (pictured), a woman over 50 and thus ineligible to take up arms in the U.S., was denied citizenship by the Supreme Court for pacifism and became stateless? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Rosika Schwimmer. You are welcome to check how many page hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, Rosika Schwimmer), 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.

		Editor of the Week
		Your ongoing efforts to improve the encyclopedia have not gone unnoticed: You have been selected as Editor of the Week in recognition of your outstanding article creation. Thank you for the great contributions! (courtesy of the Wikipedia Editor Retention Project)

User:Gog the Mild, User:Girth Summit and User:Buster7 have submitted the following nomination for Editor of the Week:

Veteran editor SusanW has started a staggering number of quality articles, including 187 DYKs, 40 GAs and recently their first FA, virtually all of them aimed at increasing the representation of women on Wikipedia. Amazingly, their FA – on an important topic – was created from scratch less than a year ago and researched from recently uncovered documents - some barely in the public domain. A pre-eminently qualified teacher of the Art of Creating WP articles. The most modest and unassuming of Wikipedians, yet a tireless and skilled researcher. Knowledgeable, extremely productive and supportive, and keen to pass on praise and knowledge. Effusive in their appreciation of suggestions, assistance or assessments, they shy away from the more bruising aspects of Wikipedia. We think that a second EotW would be a fitting recognition of their continuing efforts.

Excellent work! I see you have several other nominations in the WP:GAN queue. As you can tell, GAN is severely backlogged, with sometimes 6+ months from nomination to review. This is a major problem for the process since nominators might lose access to sources or lose interest by the time a reviewer signs up. If you've got the time/interest, please consider taking on some reviews to help others improve content here (plus fewer reviews in the queue means folks will get to review your articles more quickly. A win-win). If not, no worries, we'll dig ourselves out eventually. Thanks again for the interesting read. Have a great weekend!

Fitmoos, I am sorry, but I am not sure what "action" you want me to take. You are having a content dispute with another editor on an encyclopedia that anyone can edit. I have no authority over the article, your actions, nor SandyGeorgia's, and certainly no authority to resolve your dispute. I have often found that if editing an article causes me emotional distress, it is probably me, not someone else who lacks the neutrality to edit and I try to look at it with fresh eyes from the other person's perspective. I am not saying that is what you should do, or what is happening in this case, rather I am simply telling you how I do things and avoid conflicts. Please try to collegially resolve your dispute without involving others.
