Moving on from here
[edit]Your changes to User:Mimilea1991/critical theory look great! Maybe drop the "in other words" pattern? Otherwise, looks great. You should move them over into the text of the Critical theory. Before you just paste the text back though, you should look through the history of the article to make sure that others haven't made edits to the article that your work would undo. If you want help with that, I'm happy to help you do this now or we can meet in person and I can show you had to do it.
In terms of your draft article on User:Mimilea1991/Ralina Joseph, there are some things we should probably talk about first. There are some concerns with Wikipedia's conflict of interest policy although there are probably ways to work with this by having somebody else who is not connected to the subject read, edit, and publish the biography. The bigger thing I think you'll need to worry about is ensuring at the tone is neutral and that you've established Dr. Joseph's notability according to Wikipedia's policies. This can be particularly difficult for biographies of living people. There are two main approaches to doing this. One is to look at an are specific policy like Wikipedia's policies for notability of academics. The second is Wikipedia's general notability guidelines which essentially just means you find multiple profiles or similar about Dr. Joseph published in reliable third-party sources. I suspect, giving Dr. Joseph's high profile and impact, you will be able to do at least one (if not both of these), but my sense is that the current draft of the articles does not do so yet so this might take some work.
Since doing all this and navigating the COI situation will take time and care, it's best not move the article about Joseph into the main/article namespace yet. That said, I'm happy to work with you to find a path toward getting the excellent start at a biography published on Wikipedia. Let's talk more! —mako๛ 21:03, 17 December 2017 (UTC)
Art+Feminism, Jacob Lawrence Gallery, Saturday, May 12th, 1-5pm

Wikipedia is one of the most wide-reaching repositories of shared knowledge, yet a 2011 survey found that less than 10% of its contributors identify as female, suggesting an alarming absence of voices. What and how information is shared is skewed by this gender disparity. To help change this, the Jacob Lawrence Gallery is organizing a quarterly series of Edit-a-thons to improve Wikipedia's coverage of womxn artists of color.
This Saturday afternoon's gathering will focus on creating, editing, updating, and expanding pages for womxn artists from Latin America and the Caribbean. The Edit-a-thon will feature a talk by Dan Paz, Lecturer in the UW School of Art + Art History + Design, an artist, and an educator who explores the labor of digital imaging production as a collaborative site where the intersections of the image-idea and lived experience are produced and contested. Through videos, photography, and sculptural projects that query the ability of documentary processes to be manipulated—to be multiplied and replicated, stopped and started, rewound and advanced—Dan works within the impossibilities of absolute replication to question the very ability of the image to truly represent. Everyone is welcome. Access to UW WiFi will be provided for non-UW affiliated participants. All you need to bring is your laptop, power cord, and ideas. No previous Wikipedia experience required! Childcare, snacks from local businesses, and editing tutorials will be provided. Please check the Facebook event page for updates. When: Saturday, May 12th, 1-5pm |

Wikipedia Day 2019 — curating images from Asahel Curtis and older Seattle photos
[edit]  |
Tuesday evening, January 15, 2019, 6-9pm at Wayward Coffeehouse, 6417 Roosevelt Way NE #104, Seattle WA 98115 Wikipedia Day celebrates the anniversary of the founding of Wikipedia. This year in Seattle, Cascadia Wikimedians' celebration of Wikipedia Day will focus on a different closely related project: Wikimedia Commons, which (among other things) functions as the media repository for Wikipedia. When you see a photo or map in Wikipedia, or hear an audio clip, etc., it usually is hosted on Wikimedia Commons and "transcluded" into Wikipedia. Wikimedia Commons is a mix of users' own works and curated third-party content, either public domain or free-licensed. Our event is a hands-on workshop in curating third-party content, mostly early 20th-century photos of Seattle and other West Coast locations. Currently, Wikimedia Commons has two intersecting sets of older photos, one from the Asahel Curtis Photo Company and the other a more general set of Seattle images. At this meetup, we will celebrate the 18th anniversary of Wikipedia by further curating these images by the creation and addition of categories, adding ImageNotes where useful, linking other versions of the same photo, enhancing the descriptions, and identifying and correcting errors. User:Jmabel has already categorized over 1000 images and corrected several hundred wrong dates, misidentified buildings, and etc., but there is much more to be done. For more information, please see Wikipedia:Meetup/Seattle#Wikipedia Day 2019 — curating images from Asahel Curtis and older Seattle photos. |

Wikipedia’s gender trouble is well-documented. In a 2011 survey, the Wikimedia Foundation found that less than 10% of its contributors were women. While the reasons for the gender gap are up for debate, the practical effect of this disparity is not: content is skewed by the lack of representation from women.
Let’s change that. To help change this, the Jacob Lawrence Gallery is continuing a series of Edit-a-thons to improve Wikipedia's coverage of womxn and gender non-binary artists of color. Childcare, snacks from local businesses, and editing tutorials will be provided. All you need to bring is your laptop, power cord, and ideas. No previous Wikipedia experience required! Everyone is welcome. Access to UW wifi will be provided for non-UW affiliated participants. Please create a Wikipedia account before the event. RSVP through this Facebook event link.
