Wikidata question
Hi Blythwood, Thank you so much for reviewing the page I created for Anthony Hopwood. It is the first Wikipedia article I have created without having it reviewed, so I'm glad to see someone running the rule over it for me. I just have a question about Wikidata, which is really new to me. Should I be connecting bio pages that I create to Wikidata myself, just as good practice?

The backlog is now approaching 5,000, and still rising. There are around 640holders of the NPR flag, most of whom appear to be inactive. The 10% of the reviewers who do 90% of the work could do with some support especially as some of them are now taking a well deserved break.
 * Less good news, and an appeal for some help

At #1 position, the Community Wishlist poll closed on 3December with a resounding success for NPP, reminding the WMF and the volunteer communities just how critical NPP is to maintaining a clean encyclopedia and the need for improved tools to do it. A big 'thank you' to everyone who supported the NPP proposals. See the results.

Category just for Clinanthus
Please see WikiProject Plants/Categorization. If and when there are actually 10+ articles on Clinanthus and its species, then feel free to create a category for it. Until then, we move up the taxonomic hierarchy until there's a suitable number of entries (personally I think 10 is too small). Peter coxhead (talk) 20:50, 21 December 2018 (UTC)

Reviewing article Alice Archenhold
Thank you so much for your help and advice! I will keep researching and adding to the article. Thank you for your support! Geneticcuckoo (talk) 00:38, 27 December 2018 (UTC)
 * great, thanks! I've carried out some additional actions to widen awareness of the article and ensure that it's accessible to people with expert knowledge/interest on the topic. I've searched for Alice Archenhold across Wikipedia and found two places to link back to the article from (her husband's Wikipedia page, and an article listing victims of Theresienstadt). I've also tagged the talk page marking it as relevant to the Women Scientists WikiProject (working group) which also should make it turn up on people's lists of new articles to look at.
