Event listing
Hello, thanks for creating this event listing! I hope this event goes well. Just a recommendation - when you create an event like this, it's best to add it to the calendar template. This allows people to find and track it, and also will likely increase the likelihood of remote support from experienced contributors who can correct mistakes on pages created and give feedback to new contributors. Hope this is helpful to you, let me know if any thoughts or questions. Blythwood (talk) 13:50, 10 February 2017 (UTC)
- Hi Blythwood, how are you doing? Could you tell me how to create a calendar template for April, May, June, and July 2017? I have a Wikipedia event in April and one in July. Thanks!
RachelWex 14:20, 10 February 2017 (UTC)
- Hi - I'm afraid it's a bit clunky for starting a new month, but when you've got the event pages created and specific firm dates, I'd go here for April and here for July and copy the code out of here. Or put a message on my talk page if you're still stuck. Blythwood (talk) 21:33, 10 February 2017 (UTC)

No edit wars
I completely disagree with you on the Gin Blossoms article. Every band has fill in people from time to time. This guy played in a grand total of three shows. Three! That's the definition of trivial in my book.Bob Caldwell CSL (talk) 15:24, 16 January 2019 (UTC)
- Further clarification: An encyclopedia is never exhaustive. You are trying to be exhaustive. The musician you named is not well-known enough to even have a wikipedia entry. Again, I think it's a waste of space on trivia.Bob Caldwell CSL (talk) 16:34, 16 January 2019 (UTC)
- Wikipedia articles, unlike encyclopedia articles, grow as their history grows. There is no harm in adding those people who performed for a band even if it was for a short time. We are going to keep it. Sorry that we will agree to disagree; I think the Gin Blossoms would be OK with the additions. Bob Caldwell CSL.

Hi, it was nice to meet you. I looked through your edits and think you might be interested in contributing to Portal:Minnesota. If nothing else to suggest biographies. Hope to see you again. I got a metal Wikipedia pin for my backpack and am so proud. Thank you and best wishes. -SusanLesch (talk) 16:18, 23 January 2019 (UTC)

Wikiloveslove on Wikipedia with a gender gap focus
Hi RachelWex, I wanted to let you know that this year we are adding a wikipedian and gender gap contest to the Wiki Loves Love contest on Commons. I hope our project will participate, the idea is to add content related to ceremonies, festival and testimonies of love on Wikipedia. We have set up a list of articles to work on which also tackle themes of gay weddings (also the laws relating to it), and alternatives like free union, polyamor, bride buring, children marriages, bride abduction. You can have a look here (we have placed the project on Meta to allow multilanguage participation). You can participate as a project or as individual contributors. The main project page is here : Wiki Loves Love on wikipedia 2019. I hope that you will participate! Nattes à chat (talk) 17:48, 9 February 2019 (UTC)
(talk) this is awesome! I will share it on Wiki LGBT. How long will the contest run? I will be helping with an Art + Feminism edit-a-thon on March 9, and some folx there may want to work on these articles as well. RachelWex (talk) 19:30, 13 February 2019 (UTC)

Thank you for catching this. Yes, please remove their proposed deletion template from my article. If they can't give a good reason why, then out it goes--deletion is not based on personal opinion. RachelWex (talk) 23:43, 21 May 2019 (UTC)

Re: Wikipedia@20
I was pleasantly surprised to see myself mentioned here! Thanks for your submission and for helping to document LGBT+ work within the Wikimedia movement. One very minor thing, my user name is "Another Believer" (not "AnotherBeliever"). Only pointing out because I believe the writings are currently being reviewed, so that's one minor change to consider. Otherwise, I'll take another look at your submission and some of the others, and I look forward to your continued work in this area. ---Another Believer (Talk) 23:38, 30 June 2019 (UTC)

Storme Webber
Hi RachelWex! Thanks for starting the article on Storme Webber. I nominated it for DYK. See here for the nomination. I wasn't sure if there's a better hook to use. Feel free to add one. I'll watch the page for suggestions from reviewers, but I would welcome you to do the same, if you have time. = paul2520 (talk) 05:41, 14 November 2019 (UTC)

DYK for Storme Webber
On 26 December 2019, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Storme Webber, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that two-spirit artist Storme Webber has used various media to retell her family's experience at The Casino, one of the oldest gay bars on the West Coast? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Storme Webber. You are welcome to check how many page hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, Storme Webber), and it may be added to the statistics page if the total is over 5,000. 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.

As a member of WikiProject LGBT studies, editing on LGBTQ+ issues or if you identify as part of the LGBTQ+ community, come help us set goals, develop our organisation and structures, consider how to respond to issues faced by Queer editors, and plan for the next 12 months.
We will be meeting online for 3 half-days, 14–16 May at 1400–1730 UTC. While our working language is English, we are looking to accommodate users who would prefer to participate in other languages, including translation facilities.

In July 2015 around 15.5% of the English Wikipedia's biographies were about women. As of July 2023, 19.61% of the English Wikipedia's biographies are about women. That's a lot of biographies created in the effort to close the gender gap. Happy 8th Anniversary! Join us for some virtual cake and add comments or memories and please keep on editing to close the gap! |
