Fred Taylor (physicist)

OK, thank you for helping me and for communicating. I think I am getting the hang of it. In a day or two I will provide a list, with references, of the things I would like you to consider including. It's already a bit better after your latest changes. One thing I would say now is that it is too simple just to say that I retired in 2011. It's true that I relinquished the Halley Chair at age 67, as required by the statutes, but I am still active as a researcher and author, in the University and elsewhere, as my activities and publication list testify.

DYK for Wendy James (anthropologist)

On 13 February 2017, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Wendy James (anthropologist), which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that the British anthropologist Wendy James started her academic career at the University of Khartoum in Sudan? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Wendy James (anthropologist). You are welcome to check how many page hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, Wendy James (anthropologist)), 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.

March Madness 2017

G'day all, please be advised that throughout March 2017 the Military history Wikiproject is running its March Madness drive. This is a backlog drive that is focused on several key areas:

  • tagging and assessing articles that fall within the project's scope
  • updating the project's currently listed A-class articles to ensure their ongoing compliance with the listed criteria
  • creating articles that are listed as "requested" on the project's various task force pages or other lists of missing articles.

As with past Milhist drives, there are points awarded for working on articles in the targeted areas, with barnstars being awarded at the end for different levels of achievement.

The drive is open to all Wikipedians, not just members of the Military history project, although only work on articles that fall (broadly) within the military history scope will be considered eligible. More information can be found here for those that are interested, and members can sign up as participants at that page also.

The drive starts at 00:01 UTC on 1 March and runs until 23:59 UTC on 31 March 2017, so please sign up now.

For the Milhist co-ordinators. Regards, AustralianRupert (talk) & MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 07:24, 26 February 2017 (UTC)

Hi, just to update you on the British Academy fellows front, I've created a table of all fellows up to 1971 in my userspace; the first column has their names as given in the academy's annual reports/lists and then I've matched these with full names and dates of death. I thought you might be interested anyway, as there are a number of women on their who might not yet have articles or whose articles could undoubtedly be expanded. I was also disappointed to find recently that some of the women who've received the Royal Society's Darwin Medal don't have their own articles (unlike their husbands, with whom they've jointly received the prize). Sigh. Anyway, cheers, —Noswall59 (talk) 20:09, 9 March 2017 (UTC).

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that you've added some links pointing to disambiguation pages. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.
