Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Donald O'Connor, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Police Story. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

You may want to click the "plot length" button on the left. You restored a version that was not only longer, but poorly written. It had run-on sentences, 1 sentence paragraphs, and irrelevant details that did not impact one's understanding of the plot of the film.  BIGNOLE  (Contact me) 16:52, 19 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2017-07-19T16:52:00.000Z","author":"Bignole","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-Bignole-2017-07-19T16:52:00.000Z-Wonder_Woman","replies":["c-Callmemirela-2017-07-19T17:28:00.000Z-Bignole-2017-07-19T16:52:00.000Z"]}}-->

I am reiterating Bignole. The word count is at 699 words. It's fine as it is. No need to edit it or make it any longer with your version (which was at 714 words).

The current version (which I had edited) is at 700 words. The one you keep putting back is 715 words. The "330 characters" that you are removing are actually html characters for links and not part of the word count. That's why it appears that you are shortening it, when in fact you are adding to it.  BIGNOLE  (Contact me) 18:30, 19 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2017-07-19T18:30:00.000Z","author":"Bignole","type":"comment","level":3,"id":"c-Bignole-2017-07-19T18:30:00.000Z-Callmemirela-2017-07-19T17:28:00.000Z","replies":[]}}-->

Hello there.

My name is Joy. I am writing to you becuase my article needs your review. My first article on Patientory - a healthcare is subjected for deletion inspite of it being backed by good number of valid references. Could you please check here Patientory, and let me know your valuable opinion?

Hi. We're into the last five days of the Women in Red World Contest. There's a new bonus prize of $200 worth of books of your choice to win for creating the most new women biographies between 0:00 on the 26th and 23:59 on 30th November. If you've been contributing to the contest, thank you for your support, we've produced over 2000 articles. If you haven't contributed yet, we would appreciate you taking the time to add entries to our articles achievements list by the end of the month. Thank you, and if participating, good luck with the finale!

Hello, LovelyLillith. Voting in the 2017 Arbitration Committee elections is now open until 23.59 on Sunday, 10 December. All users who registered an account before Saturday, 28 October 2017, made at least 150 mainspace edits before Wednesday, 1 November 2017 and are not currently blocked are eligible to vote. Users with alternate accounts may only vote once.

The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to impose binding solutions to disputes between editors, primarily for serious conduct disputes the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the authority to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail.

If you wish to participate in the 2017 election, please review the candidates and submit your choices on the voting page.

Hi @Goalsmini: I noticed that you are new around here. We appreciate you taking an interest in trying to shape Wikipedia, but there are a few WP:BASICS that you might want to familiarize yourself with. We always want to try to get information right, ESPECIALLY regarding biographical information, so we stick to using reliable media such as major news sources or other places that have multiple people doing fact checking instead of just "I met/am related to/hang out with Ms./Mr. Famous so I know this for a fact". The person whose edits which were reverted didn't seem to understand this, or was disregarding our need for such sources, and therefore multiple editors legitimately reverted multiple edits made by them. In fact, that user's edits and incivility towards other editors led to being blocked. If they had taken the time to read up on Wikipedia's rules, perhaps that wouldn't have happened. Hopefully you will become a successful editor, unlike that person. Cheers, LovelyLillith (talk) 01:25, 27 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2017-12-27T01:25:00.000Z","author":"LovelyLillith","type":"comment","level":3,"id":"c-LovelyLillith-2017-12-27T01:25:00.000Z-Goalsmini-2017-12-26T16:52:00.000Z","replies":[]}}-->

Could you please help me get the Alaska Thunderfuck article up to 4333 references, pretty please with sprinkles on top!

@Goalsmini: Please see the discussions on the Talk Page. While I am doing my best to verify the existing references, it appears that getting that many reliably sourced references would be a challenge; there is no need to have a set number of references, the emphasis is on ACCURATE references. Why do you feel that it needs that many? It will not improve the article's search engine ranking. Are you affiliated with Alaska?

They were all from the entertainers list - and picked for their notability in North America, despite more notable women in the Vital Articles lists being overlooked. We have no one on this list from large chunks of the world (yes, people on the Vital Articles list) and already a serious overrepresentation of entertainers and North Americans. As an Australian, the idea that Olivia Newton-John is the most vital article on an Australian woman on Wikipedia is...absurd. It's just depressing seeing people casually reinforcing systemic bias issues when it's an easy opportunity to actually do something about them.

Could you please alert me if you spot a prod, etc. for articles like Cara Morey? I would like to support the inclusion of articles on women's hockey players. I think the hockey project is being short-sighted in pushing the same standard on women's players as men's players. The stage of development for the men's game and women's game is completely different and also the vast amount of coverage of the men's game is very repetitive anyway, so quantity is probably not the best measure.

General Updates

• WikiProject Cleveland Museum of Art — Kevin (SuperHamster) and Maria (Rimmel.Edits) have been collaborating with Neal Stimler and the Cleveland Museum of Art (CMA) to launch WikiProject Cleveland Museum of Art on the English Wikipedia! Back in January, the CMA announced its conversion into an Open Access institution—and part of this initiative included the upload of thousands of photos and Wikidata items on CMA artworks. This WikiProject has been created to improve Wikipedia's coverage of topics related to the CMA, such as artworks and artists featured in the Museum's collections, while being able to leverage the great resources that have been released into the public domain. If you'd like to join in, please sign up to be a member here. We have an expanding list of articles to create here.
• Mailing list live! — We now have admin access to the previously-deprecated Wikimedia-US-OH mailing list. All members are encouraged to subscribe here. Anyone who would like to communicate to subscribed members can email [email protected].
• Membership List — Reminder that our membership list has been revamped and supports the addition of new details (such as name, picture, location, and titles). Members are welcome to update their entry if they wish (all details are optional).

Movement Strategy

• The Movement Strategy Working Groups have created their recommendations, located here. Community input will be accepted until September 15, so if you would like to provide feedback, be sure to do so in the next couple weeks.

Upcoming and Ongoing Events

• Wiki Loves Monuments is back in the United States for 2019. Through the end of September, upload your photos of registered historical sites to the Commons to help document our history and illustrate Wikipedia - and have a shot at winning the national contest. If you're interested in participating, a guide to finding historic sites in Ohio is available here.
• WikiConference North America 2019 is headed to Boston from November 8th through 11th! If you are interested in attending, both session proposals and scholarship applications are open through September 20th.

Recent Events

• In April, two edit-a-thons were hosted at the Ohio State University:
  • The Female and Under-represented Language Scientists edit-a-thon, hosted by the Hispanic Linguistic Colloquium in collaboration with the Buckeye Language Network (BLN) Student Association. The goal of the event was to improve articles on under-represented language scientists. 11 editors contributed 50+ edits that consisted of 1.54k words across 24 articles, including one new article.
  • The Spanish & Portuguese Edit-A-Thon, hosted by students from the Spanish and Portuguese department (Dona pipoca and Caesarologia, with support from SuperHamster). The edit-a-thon focused on expanding coverage of Spanish and Portuguese topics on the English Wikipedia, primarily by translating articles from Spanish/Portuguese to English. In doing so, attendees sharpened their Spanish/Portuguese skills, gained experience editing Wikipedia, and learned about new topics. 23 editors contributed 180+ edits that consisted of 15.8k words across 70 articles, including four new articles.
• Wikimania 2019 took place in Stockholm this year, with several Ohio Wikimedians attending. If you're interested in some of the sessions, many of them were recorded and are available on the Commons here.

Greetings!

After a successful first iteration of the “Months of African Cinema” last year, we are happy to announce that it will be happening again this year, starting from October 1! In the 2018 edition of the contest, about 600 Wikipedia articles were created in at least 8 languages. There were also contributions to Wikidata and Wikimedia commons, which brought the total number of wikimedia pages created during the contest to over 1,000.

The AfroCine Project welcomes you to October, the first out of the two months which have been dedicated to creating and improving content that centre around the cinema of Africa, the Caribbean, and the diaspora. Join us in this global edit-a-thon, by helping to create or expand articles which are connected to this scope. Also remember to list your name under the participants section.

On English Wikipedia, we would be recognizing participants in the following manner:

• Overall winner (1st, 2nd, 3rd places)
• Diversity winner
• Gender-gap fillers

For further information about the contest, the recognition categories and how to participate, please visit the contest page here. For further inquiries, please leave comments on the contest talkpage or on the main project talkpage. See you around :).--Jamie Tubers (talk) 00:50, 30 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2019-09-30T00:50:00.000Z","author":"Jamie Tubers","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-Jamie_Tubers-2019-09-30T00:50:00.000Z-AfroCine:_Join_the_Months_of_African_Cinema_this_October!","replies":[]}}-->

I recently re-read your comments at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of celebrities who have had an abortion. Then I saw you recently contributed to List of converts to Christianity from Islam.

You argued for deletion of List of celebrities who have had an abortion. If I understood your position there, you claimed that the list had to be deleted because being listed there represented a danger to the women who had come forward, and outed themselves as having an abortion.

Well, aren't former muslims who openly out themselves as converts to Christianity exposing themselves to a highly comparable risk? I don't think List of converts to Christianity from Islam should be deleted, but I didn't think List of celebrities who have had an abortion should be deleted either.

You added Victor Paul Wierwille to Gap Creationism in this edit. An IP added Charles H. Welch in the previous edit. If you used Unformed and Unfilled as a source, can you confirm Welch was in there as well? I want to make sure the content is sourced and don't have handy access to the book.

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits.

Upcoming and Ongoing Events

• Cleveland Museum of Art Open Access Anniversary Campaign — January 23rd (today!) is the one-year anniversary of the Cleveland Museum of Art's Open Access program. To celebrate, we are hosting an editing campaign (with postcard souvenirs!) from now through February 9. Help expand and create articles related to the Cleveland Museum of Art (including artists and artworks featured in their collection), and receive a postcard from the Museum. If you'd like to participate, check out the task list and sign up on the event page.

Recent Events

• In December, the Cincinnati Art Museum hosted an Art+Feminism edit-a-thon. The museum was an excellent place to have an edit-a-thon, with a café and staff who were helpful in setting up and ensuring there were enough tables, outlets, and plenty of resource materials available. There was a related exhibit, Women Breaking Boundaries, that was of interest to attendees. In total, 9 people attended.

Movement Strategy

• The Movement Strategy document, with 13 recommendations, has been released and is located here. You may utilize each recommendation's respective talk page to leave any feedback you might have.
  • Between February and March 2020, the recommendations will be finalized, incorporating final feedback. By the end of March 2020, the recommendations are slated to be approved by the Wikimedia Foundation's Board of Trustees.
• Kevin (SuperHamster) will be attending Wikimedia Summit 2020 on behalf of the Ohio Wikimedians. This year's Summit will be focusing on discussing the implementation of the finalized Movement Strategy recommendations. Please get in touch with Kevin if you have ideas and suggestions that you would like conveyed.

General Updates

I hope this message finds you well and in good health during these trying times. Below is a list of some online activities that you may be interested in participating in.

• The Wiki Global Check In has started! This initiative is gathering check-ins from Wikimedians all around the world, and asks for a photo that captures something related to life in your context or part of the world during the pandemic.
• WALRUS (Wikimedians Active in Local Regions of the United States) is now hosting virtual meetings twice a month on Monday evenings. This is a place to discuss anything Wikimedia, as well as a place for Wikimedians to come together and mutually support each other. The next virtual meeting should be on Memorial Day, May 25th. You can sign up for the Wikimediaus-l mailing list to stay up to date on all WALRUS happenings and to receive meeting invites.
• Wikipedians have been busy documenting the pandemic. In Ohio, we have articles on the pandemic in Ohio and in Columbus (the latter of which was written by our newest Ohio Wikimedians member, Ɱ!). If interested, you're encouraged to help update and expand these articles, or even consider creating articles documenting the pandemic in other Ohio metro areas.

• If you miss visiting your local museums, don't forget that the Cleveland Museum of Art's entire collection is available online and in the public domain (when permissible). Our WikiProject Cleveland Museum of Art is currently tracking 44 English Wikipedia articles and 40,322 images, which are now acquiring over 2,000,000 views a month. If you're interested in contributing, there is still plenty of work to be done to expand and create new articles!

Movement Strategy

• The finalized Movement Strategy Recommendations have been published! This is a clarified and refined version of the recommendations that were released in January.
  • You can view the full recommendations at m:Strategy/Wikimedia movement/2018-20/Recommendations.
  • They are also available in PDF and audio format.
  • A quick one-page summary is available here.
• The Wikimedia Summit 2020 that was to occur in April was canceled, and Wikimedia Deutschland will not be hosting a virtual replacement. In its stead, Ryan Merkley, members of the movement strategy core team, and external consultants are exploring options to move the contents of the conference into a series of virtual events.

Hello LovelyLillith -- 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!

Dear fellow editor,

I am Piotr Konieczny, a sociologist of new media at Hanyang University (and User:Piotrus on Wikipedia). I would like to better understand Wikipedia's volunteers who edit medical topics, many associated with the WikiProject Medicine, and known to create some of the highest quality content on Wikipedia. I hope that the lessons I can learn from you that I will present to the academic audience will benefit both the WikiProject Medicine (improving your understanding of yourself and helping to promote it and attract new volunteers) and the wider world of medical volunteering and academia. Open access copy of the resulting research will be made available at WikiProject's Medicine upon the completion of the project.

All questions are optional. The survey is divided into 4 parts: 1 - Brief description of yourself; 2 - Questions about your volunteering; 3 - Questions about WikiProject Medicine and 4 - Questions about Wikipedia's coverage of medical topics.

Please note that by filling out this questionnaire, you consent to participate in this research. The survey is anonymous and all personal details relevant to your experience will be kept private and will not be transferred to any third party.

I appreciate your support of this research and thank you in advance for taking the time to participate and share your experiences! If you have any questions at all, please feel free to contact me at my Wikipedia user page or through my email listed on the survey page (or by Wikipedia email this user function).

The survey is accessible through the LINK HERE.

Piotr Konieczny
Associate Professor
Hanyang University

	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!
