Anne Elizabeth Ball

If you have a minute, would you be able to weigh in at Template:Did you know nominations/Anne Elizabeth Ball? We have some references that say Ball was born in Youghal and are wondering if there was a source that placed her birth in Cobh. Thank you, Gobōnobō ⁺ ^c 12:14, 2 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you. This is the only thing holding up the nomination. Hopefully, it's a quick fix. Anne (talk) 15:44, 5 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry I haven't logged on for awhile. I've added a citation to the Oxford DNB for her place of birth and replied to your DYK query. I'm really pleased to see this included on the DYK entry. Thanks!

On 22 November 2012, Did you know? was updated with a fact from the article Anne Elizabeth Ball, which you created or substantially expanded.

You are welcome to check how many hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, quick check) and it will be added to DYKSTATS if it got over 5,000.

You are invited! Join us remotely!

World Virtual Edit-a-thon on Women in Science

Dates: 8 to 29 November 2015
Location: Worldwide/virtual/online event
Host/Facilitator: Women in Red (WiR) in collaboration with Women scientists: Did you know that only 15% of the biographies on Wikipedia are about women? WiR focuses on "content gender gap". If you'd like to help contribute articles on women and women's works, we warmly welcome you!
Sponsor: New York Academy of Sciences
Event details: This is a virtual edit-a-thon hosted by WiR in parallel with a "phyisical" event during the afternoon of Sunday, November 22 in New York City. It will allow all those keen to improve Wikipedia's coverage of women in science to participate. As the virtual edit-a-thon stretches over three weeks, new participants will be able to draw on the assistance of more experienced editors while creating, translating or improving articles on women who are (or have been) prominent in the field. All levels of Wikipedia editing experience are welcome.
RSVP and learn more: →here←--Ipigott (talk) 10:54, 31 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Contacting Editors from the Ada Lovelace Editathons

Hi E bruton,

I hope you don’t mind me contacting you via your talk page. I’m a new Editor to Wikipedia, part of a small research team based at the University of Birmingham in the UK. I’m getting in touch as we’re trying to contact all the Editors who were involved in the Ada Lovelace Editathons in Oxford or London. If you have been, or still are, involved in editing, whatever the scale of your involvement, we would be very grateful for the opportunity to talk to you about your experiences. In the first instance, we’ve set up a short (10 minute) survey, which you can access via my User Talk Pages. If you are interested in helping with our research project, please can you drop me a line?

Thanks, RuthPage (talk) —Preceding undated comment added 08:50, 11 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Enjoyed your talk at Wellcome. I drink too much tea too but a virtual cuppa shouldn't stop you sleeping. Andrew D. (talk) 14:24, 15 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Medical Artists Association of Great Britain moved to draftspace

An article you recently created, Medical Artists Association of Great Britain, does not have third party sources to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page. DGG ( talk ) 09:45, 31 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. Two of the three sources - https://www.medical-artist.com/about-medical-artist/memberships-training/medical-artists-association-carries-out-professional-medical-art-course/ and https://www.artbiogs.co.uk/2/societies/medical-artists-association-great-britain - are third party sources so I have resubmitted it as is. If you feel these are not third party sources, I would be interested to know why you think so.

DYK nomination of Thomas Lucas (shorthand)

Hello! Your submission of Thomas Lucas (shorthand) at the Did You Know nominations page has been reviewed, and some issues with it may need to be clarified. Please review the comment(s) underneath your nomination's entry and respond there as soon as possible. Thank you for contributing to Did You Know! Yoninah (talk) 21:32, 2 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Please see new note on your DYK nomination. Yoninah (talk) 15:26, 4 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, since the template is closed, let's continue our discussion here. "Hook refs are verified and cited inline" is simply shorthand for a review of the DYK criteria. I'm verifying that I saw the hook fact in the online sources, and that the sources were given as citations at the end of the sentences in which they appeared. You did the notelist fine; the blue background is gone now! Best, Yoninah (talk) 21:56, 8 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks very much for clarifying that - much appreciated. This is my first DYK nomination so lots to learn E bruton (talk) 11:08, 9 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

You're welcome. If you have any future questions, I'd be happy to answer them. Yoninah (talk) 11:28, 9 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

DYK for Thomas Lucas (educator)

On 13 June 2020, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Thomas Lucas (educator), which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that British educator Thomas Lucas created an embossed shorthand to teach the blind to read by touch around 1830–1832, before the introduction of Braille in the UK? You are welcome to check how many page hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, Thomas Lucas (educator)), and it may be added to the statistics page if the total is over 5,000. 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.
