I suppose making a wikipedia page Justacoolshadyguy (talk) 22:54, 28 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

You should do this tutorial on editing Wikipedia, and then make productive edits to existing articles as you learn how to edit properly. You should not try creating a new article until you have a good grasp of the rules here. voorts (talk/contributions) 23:58, 28 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Ok thanks Justacoolshadyguy (talk) 09:33, 29 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Women in Green's May 2025 edit-a-thon

Hello Voorts: WikiProject Women in Green is holding a month-long Good Article Editathon event in May 2025!

Running from May 1 to 31, 2025, WikiProject Women in Green (WiG) is hosting a Good Article (GA) editathon event – Wildcard Edition! Participants are invited to work on nominating and/or reviewing GA submissions related to any and all women and women's works during the event period. Want to improve an article about a women's rights activist? Go for it. An Olympian gold medallist? Absolutely. A famous painting by a woman? Yes! GA resources and one-on-one support will be provided by experienced GA editors, and participants will have the opportunity to receive a special WiG barnstar for their efforts. We hope to see you there!

Women in Red April 2025

Women in Red | April 2025, Vol 11, Issue 4, Nos. 326, 327, 335, 336

Online events:

New: Alphabet run G & H | Business
Continuing, year-long initiatives: #1day1woman | Music

Announcements (Events facilitated by others):

The European Destubathon – a stub improvement contest/editathon from 1–30 April 2025

Tip of the month:

When creating biographies, don't forget to use Template:DEFAULTSORT.
Accessible from "Wiki markup" at the foot of the page being edited,
it allows categories to be listed under the subject's family name rather than their first or given name.

Moving the needle: (statistics available via Humaniki tool)

24 Mar 2025: 20.070% of biographies on EN-WP are about women (2,057,083, 412,857 women)
27 Jan 2025: 20.031% (2,047,793 bios, 410,200 women)

Thank you if you contributed one or more of the 2,657 articles during this period!
