I nominated an article Suffrage Torch for DYK
I have not seen you so much at DYK so I thought I give it a try. See which hook I thought of here. Just wanted to let you know. The article is such a symbolic powerhouse of liberty and democracy I just had to bring it to DYK. Paradise Chronicle (talk) 23:15, 14 June 2021 (UTC)
 * , thank you so much! I really enjoy writing about these suffrage efforts. Everyone involved was giving it their all! (Although my favorite part was the shade giving to the NJ suffs!) :D Megalibrarygirl (talk) 21:35, 18 June 2021 (UTC)

Ma'rid al-Hasna' fi Tarajim Mashahir al-Nisa' (Dictionary of the exemplary in the lives of famous women)
Hi there. While reviewing/rating women writer articles, I came across Maryam al-Nahhas, who, in 1879, published a woman's biographical dictionary: Ma'rid al-Hasna' fi Tarajim Mashahir al-Nisa'  (Dictionary of the exemplary in the lives of famous women). I'm clueless how to locate it, but I think it would be a valuable resource for a Women in Red redlist. This is obvs not a priority. Mostly, I am so excited to know of its existence, and wanted to share that with someone; I figured you more than most would understand. --Rosiestep (talk) 13:46, 20 June 2021 (UTC)
 * , Let me see what I can do. Would be great to have more women from majority Muslim countries represented. :) Megalibrarygirl (talk) 20:54, 20 June 2021 (UTC)
 * , cool! And BTW, I've noticed that you and others use "reply-link" so I just "downloaded" it and this will be my first attempt to use it. It certainly looks easy enough with a "reply" link next to each comment on this talkpage. Added benefits,auto-indent and auto-signature. Win-win-win. Seems to me that this should be auto-enabled for everyone, especially newbies. Rosiestep (talk) 21:36, 20 June 2021 (UTC)
 * , Strong agree! :D Megalibrarygirl (talk) 22:08, 21 June 2021 (UTC)
 * , also, finding the biographical dictionary is proving difficult. A lot of people reference it, but don't say where it is kept. Searching for the author on Worldcat bringing up some information in Arabic script, but I don't think it's correct. :( Megalibrarygirl (talk) 22:23, 21 June 2021 (UTC)
 * Thanks for checking! I'll ask about it in the wikiwomen TG channel as there are some Arabic speakers there. Rosiestep (talk) 22:53, 21 June 2021 (UTC)
