Hurray! I'll look forward to meeting you at the Rare Disease Day edit-a-thon. I'm sad not to make Art+Feminsim! —Verbistheword (talk) 21:36, 22 February 2016 (UTC)

Art and Feminism Edit-a-thon
Art+Feminsim

I would be happy to be a facilitator for the event. Jbull991 (talk) 17:14, 25 February 2016 (UTC)

Event listing - suggestion
Hello, thanks for creating this page! I hope this event goes well. Just a recommendation - when you create an event listing, it's best to add it to the event calendar. 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. (Thanks for adding the categories already though - I've also added the category "Meetups in March 2017" also.) Hope this is helpful to you, let me know if any thoughts or questions.

Your March editathon
As you are arranging an editathon on March 26, you might be interested in Women in Red's plans for Women's History Month. We have also developed Ten Simple Rules for new editors interested in creating biographies, which might be useful.

Account creator granted
After reviewing your request for the "accountcreator" permission, I have enabled the flag on your account. Keep in mind these things: If you no longer require the right, let me know, or ask any other administrator. Drop a note on my talk page if you run into troubles or have any questions about appropriate/inappropriate use of the account creator right. Happy editing! — xaosflux  Talk 14:31, 20 March 2018 (UTC)
 * The account creator right removes the limit on the maximum number of new accounts that can be created in a 24-hour period.
 * The account creator right is not a status symbol. If it remains unused, it is likely to be removed. Abuse of the account creator right will result in its removal by an administrator.
 * Please note this is for your event only and will expire after the event. — xaosflux  Talk 14:31, 20 March 2018 (UTC)

Visible Wiki Women


Hi!

We invite you to join the VisibleWikiWoman challenge to make notable women more visible on Wikipedia. We know that during your edit-a-thon several articles will be created or improved. We encourage you to also look for photos or illustrations for these biographies, and upload them to Wikimedia Commons in the VisibleWikiWomen category or through our upload wizard.

Here are some resources that can help, to learn what kind of images can be uploaded to Commons and how to do it.

If you have questions or need help, do not hesitate to contact me.

Have a successful day of editing! --Señoritaleona (talk) 22:08, 23 March 2018 (UTC)

Event coordinator granted
After reviewing your request for the " eventcoordinator " permission, I have enabled the flag on your account. Keep in mind these things: If you no longer require the right, let me know, or ask any other administrator.

Deletion discussion about Saman Arastoo
Hello, Lastchapter,

I wanted to let you know that there's a discussion about whether Saman Arastoo should be deleted. Your comments are welcome at Articles for deletion/Saman Arastoo.

If you're new to the process, articles for deletion is a group discussion (not a vote!) that usually lasts seven days. If you need it, there is a guide on how to contribute. Last but not least, you are highly encouraged to continue improving the article; just be sure not to remove the tag about the deletion nomination from the top.

Thanks,

Disambiguation link notification for November 22
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Ricardo Flores Magón, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Mexican Civil War. Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ* Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)
