Hello!

Hello my friend. How are you! I haven't come across any of your work recently - any big projects in the works? Need a hand with anything? I keep thinking back to your work at the Vivian Strong article, and end up using it to base some of my research practice off of... phenomenal work. I hope there is more to come? I've been working on some other Nebraska articles lately - nothing quite like Strong, but important, I think. Let me know what you're up to! (I can check your contributions, but sometimes our most important and ongoing work is yet to be released on Wikipedia...) Health for you and yours, Urve (talk) 12:24, 21 September 2021 (UTC)

: Hello Urve! Thank you for the note, it's good to hear! In Oregon we are just starting the new school term in September, so things have been very busy. And, I've taken a little break from Wikipedia editing as a result. However, our published book just came out online on September 5! [https://www.fulcrum.org/concern/monographs/cv43p013f?locale=en Wikipedia and Academic Libraries: A Global Project]. I will definitely get back to some Wikipedia articles in November, after my teaching schedule slows down a bit. Thank you for checking in! Bridges2Information (talk) 21:36, 21 September 2021 (UTC)

Portland Art+Feminism Edit-a-thon: March 12, 2022

You are invited! An Art+Feminism Wikipedia edit-a-thon will be held in Portland, Oregon, on March 12, 2022. Learn more [https://artandfeminism.org/edit_a_thon/portland-art-feminism-edit-a-thon/ here]!

Wikipedia is one of the most-visited sites on the internet—and it’s created by people who volunteer their time to write and edit pages. Learn how to edit Wikipedia and be a part of shaping our understanding of our world. In this workshop, volunteer Wikipedia editors will be on hand to train participants on how to get started editing pages and offer ideas for which pages you can pitch in to help improve. Show up at any point during the four hours to get started!

Also: Free burritos!! We will be providing vegan, vegetarian, and meat burritos from food cart Loncheria Las Mayos. Alder Commons has a large, fenced playground. Children are welcome! Some computers will be available to borrow, but if you have a laptop, please bring it to use. We will also be leading an online training for new editors at 11am-12pm PST. Please feel free to join that training if you are not able to show up IRL.

This event is part of the international month of events organized by Art+Feminism, which is building a community of activists committed to closing information gaps related to gender, feminism, and the arts, beginning with Wikipedia. MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 14:36, 8 March 2022 (UTC)

[[:Category:Book censorship in the United States]]

Hello, please do not add books or authors to this category, especially when their articles have little or no mention of censorship. Categories in Wikipedia are for defining characteristics of the subject, so the category for book censorship in the US is for articles about that *exact* topic (or things very closely related to it), not a list of books banned in the US (which given the diversity of the country would be a rather large list indeed). After reverting your additions to the category, the only two books left in it, The Bluest Eye and Counter-Revolutionary Violence: Bloodbaths in Fact & Propaganda, have very extensive discussions about their being censored. The idea of categorising books as banned has been rejected in Wikipedia per long-standing precedent. Graham87 05:59, 12 May 2022 (UTC)

:Regarding your last link, it looks like that category was functionally recreated in 2018 as :Category:Censored books. Colin M (talk) 14:23, 12 May 2022 (UTC)

::Ah yes, and I see we have :Category:Censored films too. The general principle holds though: categories shouldn't be added unless its *really obvious* why they're on the article, because they can't be annotated. In cases like this I'd be most comfortable if there was a section containing at least a few sourced sentences describing the history of a work's censorship. Graham87 16:40, 12 May 2022 (UTC)

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!

Tip of the month:

  • When creating biographies, don't forget to use Template:DEFAULTSORT.
    Accessible from "Wiki markup" at the foot of the page being edited,
    it allows categories to be listed under the subject's family name rather than their first or given name.
