I am currently studying Mathematics and Biology at the University of Edinburgh. Outside of my studies, football is one of my main interests. In the past, I have mostly edited articles relating to the Norway national football team, but I will probably focus more on women in STEM in the near future.

In December 2022, I participated in the Train the Trainers ran by Wikimedia UK. I have the account Rogalendingen (training account) to use for training.

Useful links, etc.

Testing/preparing for events as a trainer (everything below this is just for that purpose)

This is based on and partly copied directly (templates, image and categories) from the training Stinglehammer often gives during the monthly women in red workshops (they are really good and open for everyone).

Rogalendingen

[edit]

I am currently at a training session run by the society for experimental biology. We focus on, among others, women scientists that do not have a Wikipedia article, like Ann Oaks.

Things I want to edit about

[edit]
  • Women scientists
  • Evolution
  • Women football players

My research

[edit]
  • Mathematical biology

My example citation

[edit]

When citing scientific articles, it is better to use the DOI, not the URL. Same with Pubmed identifier and ISBN for books.

This is an interesting article about the genetic composition of an exponentially growing cell population.[1]

I can also reuse my reference later in the article.[1]

Templates I can add

[edit]
  • This is a new user
  • Infobox Wikipedia user (for your own userpage)
  • Infobox person (for generic biography articles)
  • new user article (for putting on Talk pages of articles you have newly published in the Wikipedia main space).

My example image

[edit]

I will do a keyword search of the 85 million free to use images in Wikipedia's sister project, Wikimedia Commons, the free media repository. I can upload my own 'open-licensed' images to Wikimedia Commons if they are my own work, public domain or CC-0, CC-BY or CC-BY-SA licensed. I can look for open licensed images using image search aggregator tools like the Creative Commons "CC Search tool" and filtering my search for Public domain, CC-0, CC-BY or CC-BY-SA images.

Categories

[edit]

These appear at the foot of the Wikipedia page and are added to published pages in the Wikipedia main article space. You can find categories in the Visual Editor dropdown menu indicated with 3 horizontal lines.
