Information icon Hi BJCHK! I noticed that you recently marked an edit as minor that may not have been. "Minor edit" has a very specific definition on Wikipedia – it refers only to superficial edits that could never be the subject of a dispute, such as typo corrections or reverting obvious vandalism. Any edit that changes the meaning of an article is not a minor edit, even if it only concerns a single word. Please see Help:Minor edit for more information. Thank you. David Biddulph (talk) 08:16, 14 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for your well-researched new article!

[edit]

Just dropping by to confirm that I moved Janet E Tobitt to main article space, so it should be available to everyone now. I also did a little bit of cleanup to remove a couple accidental redirects you made while working on the move - not a problem. You now have a blank sandbox page at User:BJCHK/sandbox that you can use for a new draft if you want to. Dreamyshade (talk) 05:03, 4 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Robert,
This is all so exciting to read! I am loving this journey of discovery - gradually putting these women who were so influential in the world of Girl Guides and Girl Scouts back into the story!
My next two challenges are learning to make an info box and adding photos. This side of the Wikipedia journey is more of a challenge than the research and writing elements (my brain revolts at the technical language) but I am persisting. Before my first article I had no clue about anything, and now I'm citing with ease :-)
Yours with appreciation

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Janet E Tobitt, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page New York. Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

Slow down please

[edit]

Hallo, thank you for adding an infobox to Rachel Kay-Shuttleworth, but ...

  • She already had a "Short description"; please don't add a second one. I've expanded the existing one to "English textile collector and Girl Guiding pioneer (1886–1967)": 40 characters is a target, and this is 62, but it's got useful stuff there. Dates are recommended for inclusion in short descriptions.
  • You added a link MBE which leads to a disambiguation page. I've corrected it to [[Order of the British Empire|MBE]]
  • You added a link to Gawthorpe as her death place. That leads to a disambiguation page, and I don't think that Gawthorpe Hall is actually in any of the places called "Gawthorpe". I've corrected the link.
  • There is an easy way to avoid linking to disambiguation pages: if you go to "Preferences", "Gadgets", and look under "Appearance" you'll see "Display links to disambiguation pages in orange" towards the bottom of the section. Select that tickbox, and whenever you Preview a page you'll be able to see whether you've accidentally linked to a disambiguation page. It's an easy way to edit better.
  • {{Use dmy dates}} was already present, with the date April 2022 which indicates that in April 2022 the dates were all compliant with dmy format. You added {{Use dmy dates|date=July 2013}} which tells us that 10 years ago the dates were compliant.
  • You added {{Use British English|date=August 2015}} which tells us to use British English, OK, but also that the article was checked for British English in 2015.
  • The infobox doesn't need a "Caption" field unless there is a picture for which it is the caption. (Now if through your Guiding contacts you could get someone to donate an image of RK-S to Commons with the right copyright clearance for us to use it in the article, that would be really helpful!)
  • It looks as if perhaps you are copying chunks of "boiler plate" code from other articles without either understanding how they work or checking whether they are already present. Please don't use code you don't understand, and please check all your editing.

There is a lot to learn about editing Wikipedia but it's an interesting journey. Happy Editing! PamD 14:31, 2 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks Pam. I will keep learning. BJCHK (talk) 14:34, 2 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
@PamD my challenge is not knowing I'm doing something wrong until someone tells me. BJCHK (talk) 14:49, 2 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Quite so - there's a lot to learn so it seems useful to mention things rather than just fix them ... I've got another posting half-written already but am doing a few bits of cleanup en route! No-one minds people getting things wrong at first - though some of us get a bit impatient with people who keep on doing the same stuff wrong however often it's pointed out (one particular editor likes adding spaces before all his references... grrrr.) Happy to help with advice. PamD 15:02, 2 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Hi Pam, I have a question about what name to give someone.
Within her sphere of Guiding she was only ever known as Mrs H. S. Gresham, but if I can't use "Mrs" in her heading, then does H. S. Gresham become her husband?
Could I do Lilian Bessie Holmes (Mrs H. S. Gresham) or something like that?
Advice appreciated!
Yours
Bethan BJCHK (talk) 14:41, 18 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Hallo Bethan, if you want to attract someone's attention (other than on their own talk page) it's safer to use {{ping}} than just mention their name - but luckily I've had this page on my watchlist.
It's tricky - see lengthy discussion at Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Women_in_Red/Archive_112#Mrs_Pender_Chalmers. I think we probably need to name the article Lilian Bessie Gresham, ie the surname by which she was best known but her own forenames, with incoming redirects from all the other possibilities including Mrs H. S. Gresham and Mrs Henry Steven Gresham or whatever she was and possibly H. S. Gresham too, as well as her maiden name. The honours list here uses the form "Lilian Bessie Gresham", which helps justify it! Mrs Pender Chalmers was even more complicated because she'd used her maiden name as a bit-part actress, made her name later using her married name (and was it a double-barrelled name or not?), remarried so her grave was at a different name, etc. Lots of redirects is the answer. In the article you'd refer to her just as "Gresham". I hope that helps a bit. Article could start something like " Lilian Bessie Gresham ([dates], née Holmes, known as Mrs H. S. Gresham), was a ... ". PamD 22:42, 18 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Redirects

[edit]

Hallo again

Another hobbyhorse of mine is redirects! I was looking at Mary Cuningham Chater and created a redirect from the short form Mary Chater, then searched on that form and found that you had added info about her to several pages, using the short form piped to the long form. Either she is most commonly known as "Mary Chater", in which case that should be the title of the article, or she is most commonly known by the long form, in which case that might have been the form to add to List of people from Littlehampton etc. As you left it, if someone else had added a link to Mary Chater it would have been a red link (and they might even have wasted time starting to create a duplicate article). Please make redirects from all likely variations of someone's name, to help readers to find the info they want, and to help editors avoid accidental duplication. What's really satisfying is adding a red link from the full "Sunday" version of someone's name and then finding that doing "What links here" shows up a previous red link in something formal like a list of award-winners, even if she never used her middle names in real life.

We also don't include "Lady" in article titles, so I've moved Lady Jane Akers-Jones to Jane Akers-Jones, and created a "surname" page at Akers-Jones even though she and her husband are the only name-holders at present. (If she had been the only one with the surname I would have redirected it to her).

Janet E Tobitt: Wikipedia always adds a full stop after initials, so I've moved her to Janet E. Tobitt, and made redirects from Janet Tobitt and Janet Evelyn Tobitt, and another from Tobitt ( to my surprise she's the only name-holder - there's a Charlotte, journalist, who is often cited but has no article or mention, but no-one else) I've done a bit of tidying up - Wikipedia only uses "straight quotes", both single and double, not "curly" or "slanted"; The Times gets italicised; section headings have initial capitals but no other except for proper nouns; use "24" rather than "24th" in dates; odds and ends. There seems to be a problem with the image but I'm not an expert in that area.

That was just picking a couple of the articles you list on your user page. They're all very impressie in the sheer amount of info and sources - I myself tend to create solid little stubs with lots of incoming redirects but not real extensive articles. Well done on being a serious editor!

I hope some of the above comments are helpful, anyway. All the best. PamD 15:24, 2 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks so much Pam. Those first two articles were created by a friend whilst I got to grips with just the research and citations. I didn't know how to change Mary to just Mary Chater, but that's perfect. He also added the dots after Janet's middle name - I had no idea (still don't, clearly).
My focus and passion is getting the biographies of these women onto the world stage, so the Wikipedia edit elements are all hugely alien to me. I am so incredibly out of my comfort zone, and rather lonely. The chap who helped me with Mary and Janet is now in his final year at University, so I feel I have taken enough of his time!
I will endeavour to take in all your advice - and hope I will Do Better next time. Thanks again,

More editing tips

[edit]

Hallo again, I was alerted that you had linked to Lady Lee Steere from the article Eva Julius which you created. It is a disambiguation page - there were three women of that title. Whenever you make a link it's worth checking to see that it goes to the page you intend.

There is an easy way to avoid linking to disambiguation pages: if you go to "Preferences", "Gadgets", and look under "Appearance" you'll see "Display links to disambiguation pages in orange" towards the bottom of the section. Select that tickbox, and whenever you Preview a page you'll be able to see whether you've accidentally linked to a disambiguation page. I find it very helpful.

Looking at the Eva Julius page after I fixed that link, I noticed another couple of things:

  • Wikipedia doesn't use "5th" etc in dates - just plain 5 July 1972 - I've corrected it in lead and infobox
  • When birth and death dates are known, even if just the year, they are shown as a range, rather than specifying "born" or "died". I've fixed it.
  • Wikipedia uses straight quotes, both single and double, and never curly/slanted ones. I've fixed all those I spotted in that article, but please check that you're using the right sort of quotes in future. Thanks.

There's a lot to learn about editing, but it's an interesting journey! PamD 18:01, 27 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks PamD. Sigh. I really don't mean to mess up as much as I am :-( I'll take everyone on board and Try Again. BJCHK (talk) 02:28, 6 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

DYK nomination

[edit]

Howdy, someone nominated an article you wrote on Eva Julius for DYK. Did you want to move forward with this? It only needs two minor edits and I think it's worth going forward. I had a bit of a look about for a cite on the date of her death but only found a questionable web page. Google Books might be a better place to look, or maybe there's a good newspaper archive online for AU? Maury Markowitz (talk) 14:20, 19 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Maury,
Thank you for the exciting news! I absolutely do want to move forward but don't know what's next.
Re: her date of death, do you mean her birth? Or do I need to include a citation for her date of death? That would be fairly easy, however,
she was born in NZ and I had no luck finding anything beyond the year.
Please let me know which and I'll try and look again (but I did look pretty hard everywhere I could think of before!)
Out of interest, how does a page get nominated? I've written a few biographies now, and I'm wondering how something makes the cut?
Yours gratefully
Bethan BJCHK (talk) 14:30, 19 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I think I took care of the issues. I managed to find the entire date of her death also. SL93 (talk) 12:20, 20 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
That's great. But I'm confused as I had her death date already? The article was missing her full DOB? BJCHK (talk) 13:03, 20 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Her full death date was unreferenced. SL93 (talk) 13:25, 20 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

DYK for Eva Julius

[edit]

On 25 June 2022, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Eva Julius, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that Lady Eva Julius once called Girl Guiding "the most important youth movement in the world"? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Eva Julius. You are welcome to check how many pageviews the nominated article or articles got while on the front page (here's how, Eva Julius), and if they received a combined total of at least 416.7 views per hour (i.e., 5,000 views in 12 hours or 10,000 in 24), the hook may be added to the statistics page. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page.

Proper way to insert images in infoboxes

[edit]

Hello @BJCHK. I am @Archer1234. I noticed your recent edit to Lady Mary Trefusis where you added an image to the infobox. I want to let you know that the way you added the image was not done according to Wikipedia's Manual of Style (see WP:INFOBOXIMAGE).

When adding an image to an infobox, thumbnails should NOT be used. Simply supplying the file name will work. For example, to use File:Image PlaceHolder.png, you can simply use |image=Image PlaceHolder.png. Captions should be specified with the |caption= parameter. Every infobox is different and the documentation for the infobox in question should be consulted for the proper parameters to match the image and caption.
To fix

Do not use the full image syntax:

|image=[[File:SomeImage.jpg|thumb|Some image caption]]

Instead, just supply the name of the image. So, in this case you can simply do:

|image=SomeImage.jpg

and optionally:

|caption=Some image caption.

Hopefully you will find this information useful for your future editing. If you have any questions about this, feel free to ask. — Archer1234 (u·t·c) 01:58, 7 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Five Sisters window

[edit]

I have just started getting entirely undeservered notificatons for the article "I created" about the Five Sisters window. Some time back, for reasons I have completely forgotten, I created a redirect from there to a section of York Minster which only gave it a passing mention. I have now read your article and found it absolutely fascinating. Also, and I know this from my own experience, you must have put in a very great deal of careful work into it all. Thank you very much! Thincat (talk) 09:52, 4 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Hello @Thincat - thank you for letting me know! I did think I was missing a message or two from the system after I uploaded it. This explains it! Thank you for your kind words about the article; it was great fun putting it together. BJCHK (talk) 11:53, 4 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

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!

Women in Green GA Editathon October 2023 - Around the World in 31 Days

[edit]

Hello BJCHK:

WikiProject Women in Green is holding a month-long Good Article Edit-a-thon event in October 2023!

Running from October 1 to 31, 2023, WikiProject Women in Green (WiG) is hosting a Good Article (GA) edit-a-thon event with the theme Around the World in 31 Days! All experience levels welcome. Never worked on a GA project before? We'll teach you how to get started. Or maybe you're an old hand at GAs – we'd love to have you involved! Participants are invited to work on nominating and/or reviewing GA submissions related to women and women's works (e.g., books, films) during the event period. We hope to collectively cover article subjects from at least 31 countries (or broader international articles) by month's end. GA resources and one-on-one support will be provided by experienced GA editors, and participants will have the opportunity to earn a special WiG barnstar for their efforts.

We hope to see you there!

Hello Andy. I think I have reverted all the references that made the citations go wonky - could you please check on them when you have a moment?
I have a follow up question, perhaps you can help me? My (incorrect) edits were to remove what I thought was an unnecessary book list at the end of the article, but it seems it is linked to the citation list. Is there anything I can do to do sort the references and delete the book list? I've only used inline citations so far, so don't understand this aspect of Wiki. Any help / pointers much appreciated.
Thank you!BJCHK (talk) 06:29, 5 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Lilian Gresham

[edit]

Thank you, BJCHK, for your interesting biography of Lilian Gresham. I reduced the many capitalized titles to lower case as upper case is only used when a title precedes the name of the subject, e.g. Director General Joan Doe (see MOS:PEOPLETITLES). I've taken this opportunity to assess/reassess some of your recent articles and see you have been producing impressive work. Happy editing!-Ipigott (talk) 07:23, 16 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the feedback. It looks odd to see the titles without capitals - they are capitalised in the Guiding world - but understand the need here.

Olive Garnett

[edit]

Hallo, I was alerted to this article because it links to one I had created. Thanks for creating an article about this interesting woman.

Please remember to use straight quotes/apostrophes, not curly/slanted ones.

I also see that the list of references seems to involve several duplicates: it would be less confusing for the reader if you could combine these refs. There are various techniques to re-use different page numbers within one ref where needed, of which one simple one is {{rp}} to add the page number each time (I don't myself go into the complexities of {{sfn}}, but it's there as another option.) Thanks. PamD 06:48, 16 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Her birth and death date/place should be included in the text, sourced, as well as in the lead (and places not usually included in the lead) - I couldn't see, at a quick glimpse, which source gave the dates. I've standardised the presentation of the dates in the lead (using "-" rather than "b." ad "d."), and added them to the text but with {{cn}}. PamD 06:51, 16 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

You may also be interested to see I have been assessing/re-assessing your articles. From here, you can see that of your 78 creations, 13 are B class, 43 C class and 20 Start class. Quite an achievement!--Ipigott (talk) 14:53, 16 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Ipigott it is so funny, I was just looking at my stats yesterday and wondering how I can get some more Cs turned into Bs. My plan is to publish 100 articles and then do a review of what I've done so far - the learning curve has been so steep I know I can go back and significantly tweak earlier articles. (While my official stats are 78, I count it as 90, because I have turned 12 stubs into much longer articles (see: Ansley, Warwickshire for example, which was rather a labour of love.) If it's OK with you, I might be in touch when I've hit my century for some words of advice on how to improve. Your support and encouragement is much appreciated.
