Speedy deletion nomination of Category:Women Councillors in Glasgow


A tag has been placed on Category:Women Councillors in Glasgow requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section C1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the category has been empty for seven days or more and is not a disambiguation category, a category redirect, a featured topics category, under discussion at Categories for discussion, or a project category that by its nature may become empty on occasion.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Liz Read!

Women in Red
Hi there, Ineswk, and welcome to Women in Red. I see you have already made a number of edits 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) 08:04, 5 July 2020 (UTC)

Protests & Suffragettes Wiki Workshop
Hello again ! 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.

Wiki is never finished - it's a constantly evolving entity. And there are a huge community of other editors out there who can help.

Here's some links that I hope you'll find useful:


 * Really good guide to getting started
 * Is your topic notable enough for an article?
 * Be Bold!
 * Learn from others
 * How to write a great article
 * A simplified manual of style
 * How to use talk pages

To start a new article you can use your sandbox, or the Drafts function.

You can find out more about what's happening with Wikimedia in Scotland on the WMUK site here.

To keep up to date about Wikimedia events happening throughout Scotland, to learn more about ScotWiki projects, or to publicise your own ScotWiki event or project, join the ScotWiki Mailing List!

Hi there!
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 after them, 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 - I'm reachable on sara.thomas@wikimedia.org.uk

All the best, and I hope you're having a good summer! Sara Sara Thomas (WMUK) (talk) 16:35, 15 July 2024 (UTC)
