Women in Red

[edit]

Hi there, Rubystaramaryyllis (beautiful user name), and welcome to Women in Red. Good to see you intend to help us improve our coverage of women on Wikipedia. You'll find some basic information on how to create an article in the items listed above or you can follow the video on How to make a Wikipedia page. You'll probably also find it useful to look through our Primer for creating women's biographies. I would also suggest you look carefully at some of the pages already created on women in the field you hope to write about. Let me know when you have prepared a draft and I'll see whether it looks suitable for mainspace. Happy editing!--Ipigott (talk) 07:31, 12 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Copying within Wikipedia requires attribution

[edit]

Information icon Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you copied or moved text from Acisclus into Draft:Victoria. While you are welcome to re-use Wikipedia's content, here or elsewhere, Wikipedia's licensing does require that you provide attribution to the original contributor(s). When copying within Wikipedia, this is supplied at minimum in an edit summary at the page into which you've copied content, disclosing the copying and linking to the copied page, e.g., copied content from [[page name]]; see that page's history for attribution. It is good practice, especially if copying is extensive, to also place a properly formatted {{copied}} template on the talk pages of the source and destination. Please provide attribution for this duplication if it has not already been supplied by another editor, and if you have copied material between pages before, even if it was a long time ago, you should provide attribution for that also. You can read more about the procedure and the reasons at Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia. Thank you. DanCherek (talk) 18:54, 7 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Congratulations, and thank you for helping expand the scope of Wikipedia! We hope you will continue making quality contributions.

The article has been assessed as Start-Class, which is recorded on its talk page. Most new articles start out as Stub-Class or Start-Class and then attain higher grades as they develop over time. You may like to take a look at the grading scheme to see how you can improve the article.

Since you have made at least 10 edits over more than four days, you can now create articles yourself without posting a request. However, you may continue submitting work to Articles for creation if you prefer.

If you have any questions, you are welcome to ask at the help desk. Once you have made at least 10 edits and had an account for at least four days, you will have the option to create articles yourself without posting a request to Articles for creation.

If you would like to help us improve this process, please consider leaving us some feedback.

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Martha Desrumeaux, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Comines. 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.)

An article you recently created, History of Howardsville, Virginia, is not suitable as written 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. ~StyyxTalk? 00:28, 5 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Information icon Hello, Rubystaramaryllis. This is a bot-delivered message letting you know that Draft:Aida Cruz-Del Rosario, a page you created, has not been edited in at least 5 months. Drafts that have not been edited for six months may be deleted, so if you wish to retain the page, please edit it again or request that it be moved to your userspace.

If the page has already been deleted, you can request it be undeleted so you can continue working on it.

DYK for Mary Josephine Shelly

[edit]

On 24 October 2023, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Mary Josephine Shelly, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that Mary Jo Shelly (pictured) used her background in modern dance and physical education to train women in the military during two wars? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Mary Josephine Shelly. You are welcome to check how many pageviews the nominated article or articles got while on the front page (here's how, Mary Josephine Shelly), and the hook may be added to the statistics page after its run on the Main Page has completed. 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.

Ways to improve Dominique Leach

[edit]

Hello, Rubystaramaryllis,

Thank you for creating Dominique Leach.

I have tagged the page as having some issues to fix, as a part of our page curation process and note that:

The second-most cited source in the article is from an organization that seems to be affiliated with the subject. It is used beyond the limited scope recommended in WP:VENDOR; even then, such sources are only to be used as a last resort. According to WP:RELIABLE, articles must be cited from sources independent of the subject.

The tags can be removed by you or another editor once the issues they mention are addressed. If you have questions, leave a comment here and begin it with {{Re|CurryTime7-24}}. Remember to sign your reply with ~~~~. For broader editing help, please visit the Teahouse.

Delivered via the Page Curation tool, on behalf of the reviewer.

@CurryTime7-24:
Looking at the CLINK Festival, it does not look like she is an organizer, but since the bio is related to an event I can see where WP:VENDOR might apply.
I changed about half of the citations to a different source. The other half's other source is a Medium article. Of the citations that remain, two have the information in a less specific narrative (i.e., without years working at Renaissance hotel and describing reason for working at Four Seasons) in another source (the Food & Wine article). The US Open anecdote is difficult to find elsewhere

Ways to improve Chandra Pitts

[edit]

Hello, Rubystaramaryllis,

Thank you for creating Chandra Pitts.

I have tagged the page as having some issues to fix, as a part of our page curation process and note that:

The most cited source in the article is from a source that is possibly connected to the subject. WP:COISOURCE states that "any publication put out by an organization is clearly not independent of any topic that organization has an interest in promoting". According to WP:SOURCE, articles should be based on "reliable, independent, published sources".

The tags can be removed by you or another editor once the issues they mention are addressed. If you have questions, leave a comment here and begin it with {{Re|CurryTime7-24}}. Remember to sign your reply with ~~~~. For broader editing help, please visit the Teahouse.

Master's thesis as source

[edit]

Hey, Ruby! I see at Margaret Farrar that you used a master's thesis[1] as a source. But I also see you're a librarian, so maybe you have better knowledge about this particular thesis for being considered reliable? Generally we don't consider even a PhD dissertation to be a reliable source for anything except noncontroversial fact, and even then we'd try to find the info elsewhere if we could. Valereee (talk) 12:55, 5 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for letting me know! I will adjust the article accordingly Rubystaramaryllis (talk) 12:01, 8 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

This was a very nice surprise to see created! I've gone in and dumped a bunch of newspaper clippings in; I suspect you'll get quite a bit out of them. My specialty is broadcasting topics, especially in my home market of Phoenix (KTVK and KSAZ are among my 130+ Good Articles, and check the Main Page on September 9 for a surprise!). The volume of coverage is quite impressive for someone whose career in TV news itself was actually on the short side. If you ever venture into broadcasting-related WiR, let me know and I can likely find many additional sources. Sammi Brie (she/her • tc) 06:44, 25 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

DYK for Mary Jo West

[edit]

On 10 September 2024, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Mary Jo West, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that Mary Jo West compared working in network TV news to learning that Santa Claus is just an ordinary man? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Mary Jo West. You are welcome to check how many pageviews the nominated article or articles got while on the front page (here's how, Mary Jo West), and the hook may be added to the statistics page after its run on the Main Page has completed. 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.

Women in Religion/Saints list

[edit]

Hi Rubystaramaryllis,

I just saw that you've recently gone through Wikipedia:WikiProject Women in Religion/Saints. I thought about using the thank feature, but then I thought better of it, that it deserves so much more than that. Wow, great work! I've been slowly and periodically going through that list for the past few years. I didn't create the list the originally, but it's been a big need because it was apparently created from a horribly unreliable website. There was lots of repetition and even male saints included.

I have a question, though: did you finish going through the list? If so, how awesomely helpful you are! Eventually, I tried to change the names, when necessary, to the name of the article, like here: diff‎ Picky, I know, but it could be a thing. Anywho, what you've done is very helpful.

I see that you're already a member of WikiProject Women in Religion, you should attend our monthly Zoom planning session this week; see our project page for more info. I can also include you on our email list if you ping me. A group of us from the WikiProject are going to WCNA week after next in Indianapolis; if you're going, too, I'd love to connect with you. I'm attending at least one of the edit-a-thons on Friday. Anyway, keep up the good work! Christine (Figureskatingfan) (talk) 18:25, 22 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for your nice words! I don't think I made it through all of them– especially since, as you noted, some are ambiguous/refer to male saints, and I did not want to mess anything up in case it was a misunderstanding. I went through most of them, though. I'd been trying to keep them in line with what it looked like the standard was.

And more info about the Zoom meeting would be great!

Rubystaramaryllis (talk) 02:03, 23 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Deleting the male saints added erroneously would be totally a fine thing to do. Be bold, as they say! ;) I have some more work I want to do, to make it more accessible to other editors who want to work on the bios, so your contributions are very helpful. See our project page for the link; it's also good for our monthly edit-a-thons the second Monday of the month. Hope to see you over zoom soon!
