Women in Red
[edit]Hi there, PortySasmo, and welcome to Women in Red. I see you have already made a number of additions to Ellison Scotland Gibb but as a new contributor, you might like to gain more experience in editing through the The Wikipedia Adventure. When you feel you are ready to create your own biographies, you might find it useful to look through our Ten Simple Rules. Please let me know if you run into any difficulties or need assistance. Happy editing!--Ipigott (talk) 08:24, 5 July 2020 (UTC)
Protests & Suffragettes Wiki Workshop
[edit]Hello again PortySasmo! It was great to see you at the Saturday workshop, and I hope that you enjoyed the session.
Now that you've learned the basics, I really would encourage you to keep editing! If you'd like a reminder about how to edit, there's a good guide on Wikimedia Commons that I've linked to here.

- Be Bold!
- Learn from others
- How to write a great article
- A simplified manual of style

Your draft article, Draft:Sherwood School, Epsom
[edit]![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/1/1d/Information_icon4.svg/48px-Information_icon4.svg.png)
Hello, PortySasmo. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or Draft page you started, "Sherwood School".

Women in Red 8th Anniversary
[edit]![]() |
Women in Red 8th Anniversary |
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! |

Hi there!
[edit]Hi there!
Sara Thomas here, Programme Manager at Wikimedia UK. I was looking back on the series of events that we did with Protests & Suffragettes / Women's History Scotland over the last few years, and noticed a few editors who had done a bit before, or had started editing at the events and done a bit of editing afterwards, of which you're one! I just wanted to reach out and say hi, and see if there was any support I could offer you about doing more editing, if there were any questions you had, or if you had any thoughts about Wiki editing in general.
Also wanted to let you know about the ScotWiki mailing list, if you're not already signed up to it - it's a low-traffic email list pertaining to all things happening in Scotland regarding Wiki.
Please do feel free to reach out any time :)
All the best, and I hope you're having a good summer!
