• Could make mention of WAR on the pages of artists who are already in Wikipedia but whose presence in the Register is not mentioned on the page. A sentence like “Material on Davida Allen (or whoever) is archived in the Women’s Art Register.”
  • This category can then be added to the bottom of the page: [[Category:Women's Art Register artists]]
    • Davida Allen
    • Micky Allen

Some experience

• Add material to these pages:
  • Australian Feminist Art Timeline (add recent WAR activities, or anything else recent, do some crosslinks of names to WAR wiki page)
  • Women's Art Register page (add recent WAR activities)
  • add these images to the George Paton Gallery wikipedia page

Lots of experience

• Create pages for artists in the Register that pass the notability test. These pages must explain the notability of its subject based on these criteria:

Wikipedia policy on Notability/Creative professionals

This guideline applies to authors, editors, journalists, filmmakers, photographers, artists, architects, and other creative professionals. Such a person is notable if:

• The person is known for originating a significant new concept, theory, or technique; or
• The person has created or played a major role in co-creating a significant or well-known work or collective body of work. In addition, such work must have been the primary subject of multiple independent periodical articles or reviews, or of an independent and notable work (for example, a book, film, or television series, but usually not a single episode of a television series); or
• The person's work (or works) has: (a) become a significant monument, (b) been a substantial part of a significant exhibition, (c) won significant critical attention, or (d) been represented within the permanent collections of several notable galleries or museums.
