Non-binary AFAB persons and this project

There is a conversation at Talk:Raegan Revord#Officially using they/them as Raegan regarding an individual who previously chose she/her pronouns but now chooses they/them, and whether categories related to this project continue to be appropriate. Input in that conversation from the project itself would be welcome. -- Nat Gertler (talk) 13:03, 24 April 2025 (UTC)

File:Sub-referencing reuse visual.png

Apologies for crossposting

Hi I'm Johannes from Wikimedia Deutschland's Technical Wishes team. We are making great strides with the new sub-referencing feature and we’d love to invite you to take part in two activities to help us move this work further:

  1. Try it out and share your feedback
  2. :Please try the updated wikitext feature [https://en.wikipedia.beta.wmflabs.org/wiki/Sub-referencing on the beta wiki] and let us know what you think, either on our talk page or by [https://greatquestion.co/wikimediadeutschland/talktotechwish booking a call] with our UX researcher.
  3. Get a sneak peak and help shape the Visual Editor user designs
  4. :Help us test the new design prototypes by participating in user sessions – [https://greatquestion.co/wikimediadeutschland/gxk0taud/apply sign up here to receive an invite]. We're especially hoping to speak with people from underrepresented and diverse groups to get different perspectives. If that's you, please consider signing up! No prior or extensive editing experience is required. User sessions will start May 14th.

We plan to bring this feature to Wikimedia wikis later this year. We’ll reach out to wikis for piloting in time for deployments. Creators and maintainers of reference-related tools and templates will be contacted beforehand as well.

Thank you very much for your support and encouragement so far in helping bring this feature to life Johannes Richter (WMDE) (talk) 15:24, 28 April 2025 (UTC)

RfC at Adult human female

There is an RfC at {{slink|Talk:Adult_human_female#The_rhetorical_question_"what_is_a_woman?"}} which may interest this project. The question is whether or not the article should introduce "What is a woman?" as a {{xt|rhetorical question}}. Golikom (talk) 09:13, 8 May 2025 (UTC)

DYK nomination

I'm struggling a bit with my review of the DYK nomination for Wang Yungui and I'm not sure what to do. I would appreciate your feedback or suggestions. – Editør (talk) 18:26, 26 May 2025 (UTC)

Online events:

Announcements:

  • Who are the most overlooked and interesting Women in Red? We've no idea,
    but we're putting together our list of the 100 most interesting ex-Women in Red.
    We are creating the list to celebrate 10 years of Women in Red and we hope to present it at Wikimania.
    We are ignoring the obvious, so do you have a name or subject we should consider?
    Can you suggest a DYK style hook?
    If you are shy about editing that page, you are welcome to add ideas and comments on the talk page.
