Women in Red

edit

Hi there, Engrigg22, and welcome to Women in Red. I see you have already created a few biographies of New York Justices and hope this is just a beginning. If you have not already done so, you might find it useful to look through our Wikipedia:WikiProject Women in Red/Essays/Primer for creating women's biographies. Please let me know if you run into any difficulties or need assistance. Happy editing!--Ipigott (talk) 12:44, 9 August 2024 (UTC)Reply

September 25: Annual Election & Members Meeting
 

You are invited to join the Wikimedia NYC community for our Annual Election & Members Meeting, with in-person at Prime Produce in Hell's Kitchen, Manhattan, as well as an online-based participation option.

The Members' Meeting is similar to other WikiWednesday meetups, except that its primary function is to elect a new Board of Directors. We will elect three board seats, half of the elected seats on the board. After being elected, those elected can potentially appoint more seats.

We will also focus on the Wikimedia NYC Strategic Plan, our Financial Report, and Annual and Monthly event teams for the coming year.

Election info:

  • To run for election or to vote, you must be a dues-paying member of Wikimedia New York City, having renewed in the past 12 months.
  • Voting will be both online, via emailed ballots from the ElectionBuddy service, and in-person.
  • The poll will be open for the 48 hours between 8pm EDT on September 23 and 8pm EDT on September 25.
  • For additional information, please consult the Election FAQ.

Meeting info:

All attendees are subject to Wikimedia NYC's Code of Conduct.

P.S. Also upcoming just before our annual meeting is the Latin music edit-a-thon, Wikicurious: Editing to the Beat (RSVP at Eventbrite), on Saturday September 21!

(You can subscribe/unsubscribe from future notifications for NYC-area events by adding or removing your name from this list.)

Salwa Salem moved to draftspace

edit

An article you recently created, Salwa Salem, 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.

Creating redirects from wikidata items

edit

You recently created the redirect Hind Rajab (Q125697211), I assume in an attempt to link the wikidata item to Killing of Hind Rajab? The title of the article on wikipedia should be Hind Rajab in this case. That article already exists, so you can link it to wikidata like this: [1]. -- asilvering (talk) 05:30, 11 September 2024 (UTC)Reply

Speedy deletion of Hind Rajab (Q125697211)
