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!

If you need help, check out Questions, ask me on my talk page, or place  on your talk page and ask your question there. See you soon! Lirazelf (talk) 13:39, 7 July 2020 (UTC)

Women in Red
Hi there, Marmite Mo, and welcome to Women in Red. I'm really happy to see we now have a Scottish historian interested in covering more women. I've had a quick look at Lindsay Riddoch and see you are on the right track. 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) 15:47, 20 February 2021 (UTC)

 * Please sign your messages on talk pages with four tildes ( ~ ). This will automatically insert your "signature" (your username and a date stamp). The OOUI JS signature icon LTR.png button, on the tool bar above Wikipedia's text editing window, also does this.

Marmite Mo, good luck, and have fun. Stinglehammer (talk) 16:05, 1 April 2021 (UTC)

Looks good so far! Couple of points. Some more training guides (pdf) are available and on the Dashboard here. Thanks for joining us yesterday! Stinglehammer (talk) 16:05, 1 April 2021 (UTC)
 * 1) The lede opening sentence of any new article needs to establish very clearly why this person (or topic) is notable/remarkable/significant/important for inclusion on Wikipedia. The Manual of Style WP:MOS has guidance for writing a good opening sentence which summarises/contextualises the person but equally you can view other biography articles on Wikipedia similar to your article to see how they have opened.
 * 2) Citations should back up every statement (place after full stop) or at least every paragraph.
 * 3) Headings are only capitalised on the first word only. You can check other articles for typical article headings used in biographies or visit Wikipedia's Manual of Style WP:MOS.
 * 4) If we can add 50-100 words and 3 or 4 (or more) references from reliable published secondary sources (more is always better for establishing wider notability) then we have something we can publish. For help publishing you can email me at ewan.mcandrew@ed.ac.uk or view our website page here.
