My new project - WWC
Hi Michelle! I hope all is well. I wanted to stop by to share a new project with you that I am developing, called the WikiWomen's Collaborative. I would love your input about the project. Thank you for the consideration and I hope you'll participate in developing this exciting new project to bring more women to Wikipedia! SarahStierch (talk) 23:56, 15 August 2012 (UTC)
 * You can find the project page here.
 * On the talk page, you'll find a number of questions I'm seeking input on. I'm especially seeking thoughts about hosting the space off of Wikipedia (in the WordPress section). I hope you will join in on the conversation.
 * Finally, this project will be developed with volunteers from around the world who want to engage and support bringing new women to Wikipedia. If you think you'd like to be involved in some capacity, that'd be awesome. We're still working on developing roles, but, you can learn more about volunteer opportunities here.

Let's get the blogging party started!

WWC update
Hi Michelle! Hope all is well. I wanted to let you know that the WikiWomen's Collaborative has recently underwent renovations to make it visually more attractive and easier to find resources. I'd love for you to be involved - since you are a founding member, of course. You'll find resources about getting involved in blogging, Facebook, and more. I also encourage you make an introduction, which is easy to do with a click of a button. I'm moving back to volunteering at the end of the month, and I really hope the project can continue to thrive and grow with volunteer support. See you there, i hope!

Disambiguation link notification for September 24
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Ferry Farm, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Pope's Creek (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ* Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Disco thing
I don't like disco and I am no racist or sexist or homophobic. Most people who disliked disco in the 1970s didn't dislike it because of racist, sexist, homophobic reasons ,THEY JUST DIDN'T LIKE THE SOUND OF IT. Its possible that people dislike Disco for same reasons people dislike rock, new wave, alternative rock etc. Many people disliked disco simply for being too popular, for the sound, for the fact it was too mass produced. Sure a small mionority hated it for bigoted reasons but most people who disliked disco disliked it for non bigoted reasons.

If most scholars actually say that people who disliked disco disliked it for racist, sexist, or homophobic reasons then those scholars are wrong and no PH.D can change that fact. Ga58656Gty (talk) 20:16, 10 November 2020 (UTC)
