Women in Green's October 2024 edit-a-thon
[edit]
Hello WikiProject Scotland:
WikiProject Women in Green is holding a month-long Good Article Edit-a-thon event in October 2024!
Running from October 1 to 31, 2024, 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!
Grnrchst (talk) 12:59, 10 September 2024 (UTC)Portmahomack
[edit]Could we have a few eyes on the Portmahomack article please? A discussion about a supposed Roman fort has re-emerged with an editor continuing to add information that is rejected as speculation by (afaik) the majority of archaeologists interested in the topic. There is info about the background on the talk page but the article is currently just turning into a series of reversions. Ben MacDui 14:05, 25 September 2024 (UTC)
- See also Coll and Talk:Coll. I suspect, as a general issue, there are too many articles with too few eyes on them. I don't mean to imply that my approach is always correct but these little ding-dongs involving only two editors who disagree seem to becoming more common. Ben MacDui 11:12, 29 September 2024 (UTC)
- Thanks for pointing these out. I have assessed and commented on both. With Coll, I did a large copyedit and have attempted to improve the article a little. There are lot of Scotland articles with unreferenced text and that needs improved by all. Helping other editors better understand Wikipedia's policies and guidelines is always half the battle!

I'm on the fence about sending it to AfD in the near future. It's got coverage in BBC, but it's about the waterway. I welcome input. Graywalls (talk) 15:41, 13 November 2024 (UTC)
