Women in Red 8th Anniversary
[edit]|

Women in Red 8th Anniversary |
| In July 2015 around 15.5% of the English Wikipedia's biographies were about women. 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! Join us for some virtual cake and add comments or memories and please keep on editing to close the gap! |

PSHAW
[edit]Kia ora Sophie, greetings from the other side of the ditch. Regarding the prep promotion copy-and-paste error, it seems that you aren’t using WP:PSHAW for promotion to prep. Personally, I’d never want to have to do a manual promotion again because this tool is so convenient. Have you tried it? Super-straightforward to install and easy to use. And it would certainly prevent copy-and-paste errors. Schwede66 17:09, 20 July 2023 (UTC)
- Hi Schwede66, no I haven't tried it yet as I wasn't sure how easy it would be to use when I've been doing manual promotions (on and off) for years. I'll have to install and have a play around with it. 97198 (talk) 11:47, 21 July 2023 (UTC)
