Ways to improve Hazel Armour
[edit]Hi, I'm Nicky mathew. Meadowsview, thanks for creating Hazel Armour!
I've just tagged the page, using our page curation tools, as having some issues to fix. please add more reference if possible.
The tags can be removed by you or another editor once the issues they mention are addressed. If you have questions, you can leave a comment on my talk page. Or, for more editing help, talk to the volunteers at the Teahouse. Nicky mathew (talk) 16:43, 8 March 2016 (UTC)

International Women's Day editathon
[edit]Hello again, Meadowsview!
Thank you so much for taking part in the History of Medicine editathon. Just so you know, out of the 45 artists exhibited in the Modern Scottish Women exhibition, thanks to your efforts, only two are left without Wiki pages. For the event page, click [IWD2016 editathon].
I hope that you enjoyed the day, and that we'll see you on Wiki again soon.
Now that you've learned - or refreshed - the basics of editing using Wikipedia’s Visual Editor, I hope that you'll stay logged in and edit or create more articles. I've added some booklets and some links below that you may find useful.

How universities are teaching with Wikipedia -
Editing Wikipedia brochure -
Instructor Basics, How to use Wikipedia as a teaching tool -
Illustrating Wikipedia brochure
If you're not feeling bold enough to write an (other) article straight away, why not try a small edit first, or adding a link? Don't worry about being perfect, Wiki is a constantly evolving entity. Fortunately there's a whole team of editors just like you who can help.
You can't break Wikipedia, but in case you're still nervous here are some pages that you might find helpful, especially the first one which covers the main things to remember about using Visual Editor.
- Visual Editor user guide
- Is your topic notable enough for an article?
- Be Bold!
- Don't let grumpy users scare you off.
- Learn from others
- How to write a great article
- A simplified manual of style
The next up-and-coming Wikipedia event is a shorter Basic Wikipedia Editing Training session for Edinburgh University staff & students Details here: http://edin.ac/1U8bsWJ
So if you wanted extra practice or knew someone that might be interested then by all means.
Details for future events are still to be confirmed but will be updated on my project page here: Wikipedia:University_of_Edinburgh| University of Edinburgh WikiProject or on my colleague Sara Thomas's page [Museum & Galleries Scotland Wikiproject] or we can also notify you through the Scots Wiki mailing list (below) if you would like to sign up to that.
You can also contribute to Wikipedia by checking out the opportunities at the Community Portal (link above) or the Women in Red project will be running for the rest of March. if you would like to contribute to the Women in Red project then check out the page here: [Women in Red Wikiproject]
I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian!
