Bronwyn Law-Viljoen

Hi! I wanted you to know that another editor (Silver seren) made some improvements to Bronwyn Law-Viljoen's biography, the article you drafted, and now, the article is "live". Thank you for starting the biography! If you're considering creating any others (I hope so), and if you have questions, or encounter setbacks, please feel free to comment about it at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Women in Red. We have more than 500 pagewatchers of that talkpage who are ready, willing, and able to address issues related to articles within our scope (new articles regarding women's representation -- their biographies, their works, their issues). See you around!

DYK for Bronwyn Law-Viljoen

On 17 August 2021, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Bronwyn Law-Viljoen, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that professor Bronwyn Law-Viljoen became editor-in-chief of a publishing company, co-founded her own independent publishing company, and founded her own bookstore in South Africa? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Bronwyn Law-Viljoen. You are welcome to check how many pageviews the nominated article or articles got while on the front page (here's how, Bronwyn Law-Viljoen), and if they received a combined total of at least 416.7 views per hour (i.e., 5,000 views in 12 hours or 10,000 in 24), the hook may be added to the statistics page. 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.
