Water sports

Are women who participated in any water sports (i.e. yachting, water skiing, synchronized swimming) included in this month? Or would they fall under the women in sports monthly contest? Thanks! --MrLinkinPark333 (talk) 23:18, 29 April 2018 (UTC)

MrLinkinPark333, IMHO, they can be added to both. --Rosiestep (talk) 14:49, 2 May 2018 (UTC)

Military women of the sea

I know we have only just had the military history editathon but thought I'd post some redlinks from the military list relating to the sea (navy and marine personnel and the like) in case people were interested. I will try to create a few articles from this list for this month - Dumelow (talk) 09:16, 2 May 2018 (UTC)
