User:Alarichall submitted the following nomination for Editor of the Week:

:It is my pleasure to nominate Editor Lajmmoore to be this weeks Editor of the Week. This user has been a Wikipedian for just under two years, but in that time has created over 200 articles in English Wikipedia. Their start in life on Wikipedia doesn't seem to have been the easiest: their first two articles were deleted, but they were not put off, and rose above initial problems (with some technical help from me) to successfully recreate those articles and to create many more since with no difficulties. They have focused their efforts on extending Wikipedia's biographical coverage of women from the Global South, helping to correct a well known bias in Wikipedia's coverage. Where I have seen their editing work, I have been very impressed at their ability to track down and assimilate reliable information about important figures about whom information is not readily available on the Internet, including dealing with source materials in languages other than English (e.g. Aïcha Ben Abed, Paulina (wife of Pammachius), Fatima al-Suqutriyya). They have done their editing work in particular through active involvement in Women in Red (along with other projects), and notices on their talk page evidence a string of successes in getting pages they have created onto 'did you know?', again bespeaking their enthusiastic engagement with the wider Wikipedia community. I note too that they are doing a PhD and are contributing material to Wikipedia in the course of their research: User:Lajmmoore/PhD Research. I've had many PhD students of my own and, while all lovely people, they are uniformly fabulously reluctant to share their knowledge in this way. Lajmmoore points the way towards a more open future for academia, and a greater willingness among the gatekeepers of the world's knowledge to share it.

You can copy the following text to your user page to display a user box proclaiming your selection as Editor of the Week:

Not sure if this is the sort of thing that might be up your alley, but a couple of years ago I purchased this catalogue from the National Museum of Women in the Arts gift shop:

{{cite book|author1=Philippa Glanville|author2=Jennifer Faulds Goldsborough|author3=National Museum of Women in the Arts (U.S.)|title=Women Silversmiths, 1685–1845: Works from the Collection of the National Museum of Women in the Arts|url=https://archive.org/details/womensilversmith0000glan|url-access=registration|year=1990|publisher=Thames and Hudson|isbn=978-0-500-23578-2}}

I've pretty well bled it dry of all the women in NMWA's collection (they claim to have the most extensive collection of silver by women silversmiths of any museum, which I quite believe), but there are a lot of other names listed, in case you ever want to follow it up. Not sure about notability, unfortunately, but at least it's a starting point.

Incidentally, if you ever do get to the Washington, DC area, I highly recommend NMWA for a visit - it's a fine little museum, very nicely done. One of my favorites in the city, honestly. --Ser Amantio di Nicolao^{Che dicono a Signa?}_{Lo dicono a Signa.} 17:56, 4 March 2021 (UTC)

Thanks for your excellent recent work on museums in Pacific countries. I was fortunate enough to have visited the Papua New Guinea National Museum and Art Gallery a few years ago, and it's good that the article now does justice to this museum.

Hello. I noticed that someone with a masked IP published a false information about me [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Taraneh_Javanbakht&diff=1023694955&oldid=1020041274 here]. A search on Google in English and Farsi clearly reveals that I am not a self-claimed thinker and artist as my biography has been published in the media. Moreover, several authors have published it in their books and many reviews on my works have also been published in journals. Some of these sedondary sources are available on the Web. The reason why this person with a hidden IP has published this false information about me on Wikipedia is that I have worked in different fields. However, as I explained here this hostility is not justified. As you have created this entry about me on Wikipedia, if he or she publishes again any false information about me, please remove it.

I have been working on this draft for Onyx: Black Lesbian Newsletter for a couple years (lol). I just submitted it but I wondered if you could help me improve the article? I tried to find an image that I could use- there are a number floating around on library websites, for example [https://sfpl.bibliocommons.com/item/show/3022184093_black_lesbian_newsletter_onyx_collection,_1979-1989_(bulk_1982-1984) SFPL] but I wasn't sure if I could use them, & I'm also not sure how to insert images.

:{{u|Fifthcoastbobcat}}, Congratulations! I remember you mentioning this page - so excellent its live! The library website link looks good to me - they are a trusted sources (I think). My other pro tip is to find sources using a search via Google Books, or Google Scholar.

Thank you for your comments on my article on Wanjuhi Njoroge - they are very helpful as I am totally new to editing Wikipedia. I am a volunteer at the Science Musuem Group.

Hey Lajmmoore! Thanks for creating Sardoine Mia, which I saw at DYK this morning. I wanted to let you know that when translating an article from another language Wikipedia, you must {{em|link}} to that article in the edit summary in addition to identifying which language it came from, which I see you did in these edits. Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia has more information about why this is required in order to comply with the CC-BY-SA license we use. If there are any other articles you've translated, please double-check that you've properly attributed them. Let me know if you have any questions! —TechnoSquirrel69 (sigh) 15:48, 18 March 2025 (UTC)

::No worries! I believe I noticed when I reviewed a couple of your articles that you were using the {{tl|Translated page}}, and under most other circumstances, that would be perfectly fine from the standpoint of Wikipedia procedure. However, as this section of the guideline explains, the CC-BY-SA license requires derivative works to have a list of authors as attribution, which Wikipedia typically complies with by adding a {{em|hyperlink}} either to the article itself or, in this case, its edit history. —TechnoSquirrel69 (sigh) 15:21, 7 April 2025 (UTC)

::::Good idea. Another extract from my boilerplate:{{quote|Reviewers are more happy to review articles from people whose name they see on other reviews (although I should say there is definitely no quid pro quo system on FAC). Reviewers are a scarce resource at FAC, unfortunately, and the more you put into the process, the more you are likely to get out. Personally, when browsing the list for an article to review, I am more likely to select one by an editor whom I recognise as a frequent reviewer. Critically reviewing other people's work may also have a beneficial impact on your own writing and your understanding of the FAC process.}}Feel free to start by reviewing my current FAC - Constans II {{smiley}} Gog the Mild (talk) 11:56, 7 April 2025 (UTC)

Hi Lucy, it's not normally done to add to another user's userpage, and I wouldn't do this for someone I didn't know personally, but I've found it helpful when other people have done it for me, so I hope this is okay. I've added some badges to the top of the page to show off that you've created quality content. Not every Wikipedian wants to display these; just undo the edit if you don't want them. Cheers, MartinPoulter (talk) 15:44, 12 May 2025 (UTC)

:Thanks Martin - I've seen these on other editors pages and been a bit jealous! Now I know how to do them too! Lajmmoore (talk) 17:38, 12 May 2025 (UTC)

The article Wang Yungui has been proposed for deletion because it appears to have no references. Under Wikipedia policy, this biography of a living person will be deleted after seven days unless it has at least one reference to a reliable source that directly supports material in the article. The nominator also raised the following concern:

:Removed unverifiable propaganda sources

If you created the article, please don't be offended. Instead, consider improving the article. For help on inserting references, see Referencing for beginners, or ask at the help desk. Once you have provided at least one reliable source, you may remove the {{tl|prod blp/dated}} tag. Please do not remove the tag unless the article is sourced. If you cannot provide such a source within seven days, the article may be deleted, but you can {{#ifexist:Wang Yungui|request that it be undeleted|request that it be undeleted}} when you are ready to add one. Go D. Usopp (talk) 05:32, 18 June 2025 (UTC)

File:Information.svg Hello, I'm Go D. Usopp. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, :Wang Yungui, but you didn't provide a reliable source. On Wikipedia, it's important that article content be verifiable. If you'd like to resubmit your change with a citation, your edit is archived in the page history. If you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. More reliable sources over propaganda sites like People's Daily would be preferred. Go D. Usopp (talk) 05:35, 18 June 2025 (UTC)

:Hello @Go D. Usopp there's detailed rationale of the sources and why they can be considered reliable on the talk page of the article which was done as part of the DYK process. Please take a look. The rationale above is also slightly disingenious, as you removed all the sources in the article, not me! Lajmmoore (talk) 06:16, 18 June 2025 (UTC)

::Also, feel free to put the article at AfD where it's easier to discuss. Lajmmoore (talk) 06:22, 18 June 2025 (UTC)
