DYK for Gerda Philipsborn

On 28 October 2024, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Gerda Philipsborn, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that Gerda Philipsborn, a German woman, dedicated her life to the development of Jamia Millia Islamia, a national university in New Delhi? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Gerda Philipsborn.

Help with Denver editathon November 21, 2024?

Hi I am running an editathon for climate scientists and planners at the Decisionmaking Under Deep Uncertainty conference in Denver from 2:15 to 4:30 on November 21. I could really use some in person help! Do you know of any editors in Denver who could help out? Thank you!LoveElectronicLiterature (talk) 22:38, 3 November 2024 (UTC)

Hello there @LoveElectronicLiterature! Thank you for the inquiry. I don't think I can be of any help here as I don't personally know about any editors from Denver and I myself am not physically present in Denver, or in Colorado anymore. Members of Wikiproject Colorado might be able to help. You can also reach out to active members of Wikimedians of Colorado User Group. I'm sorry I wasn't of much help. All the best for your event! ❯❯❯ Raydann^(Talk) 10:13, 6 November 2024 (UTC)

Hi Raydann. I used a Botswana newspaper as the source for all my information. How come it's not a reliable source?
