Women in Red
Hi there, AtticEdit, and welcome to Women in Red. It's good to see you are interested in writing articles about historic women in New Zealand. In this connection, I think you will 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) 09:36, 28 April 2021 (UTC)

Ada Lovelace Editathon tentatively scheduled for weekend of 14/15 October
Kia ora, Just wondering whether there is any update on progress on this? I'm developing a calendar of events and just double checking whether this has been confirmed and whether we can start letting people know. Einebillion (talk) 23:07, 10 June 2022 (UTC)
- Kia ora! Apologies for the radio silence on this. I'm hoping to have the event registration page up and running on the Compassion website + Eventfindr by the end of next week. AtticEdit (talk) 04:08, 20 July 2022 (UTC)

Minor edits
Kia ora AtticEdit, thanks for adding the laureate appointment of Chris Tse! Hope all is well with you (I think we met at the Wellington meetup a few months ago). I just wanted to note that your edits shouldn't have been marked as minor. "Minor edit" has a very specific definition on Wikipedia; it refers only to superficial edits that could never be the subject of a dispute, such as typo corrections or reverting obvious vandalism. Anything more than that isn't a minor edit, even if it seems uncontroversial. There's more information at Help:Minor edit. Hope that makes sense (appreciate it's not really intuitive), and thanks again! :) Cheers, Chocmilk03 (talk) 21:48, 25 August 2022 (UTC)
- Ooh that absolutely makes sense!! I had no idea - thanks for the clarification! :) AtticEdit (talk) 21:51, 25 August 2022 (UTC)
- And yes we did meet! I remember your enviable Aotearoa lit edit history! AtticEdit (talk) 21:52, 25 August 2022 (UTC)
- Haha thank you!! :) I'm looking forward to the Ada Lovelace edit-a-thon! Chocmilk03 (talk) 22:09, 25 August 2022 (UTC)

Jessica Hutchings moved to draftspace
An article you recently created, Jessica Hutchings, is not suitable as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page. Onel5969 TT me 10:38, 14 September 2022 (UTC)
- Thanks for this! I'm organizing an upcoming edit-a-thon so am just creating some basic stubs as a starting point for people to work on. I'll beef this one up further though! AtticEdit (talk) 20:25, 14 September 2022 (UTC)
Your submission at Articles for creation: Jessica Hutchings has been accepted
Congratulations, and thank you for helping expand the scope of Wikipedia! We hope you will continue making quality contributions.
The article has been assessed as Start-Class, which is recorded on its talk page. Most new articles start out as Stub-Class or Start-Class and then attain higher grades as they develop over time. You may like to take a look at the grading scheme to see how you can improve the article.
If you have any questions, you are welcome to ask at the help desk. Once you have made at least 10 edits and had an account for at least four days, you will have the option to create articles yourself without posting a request to Articles for creation.
If you would like to help us improve this process, please consider .
Thanks again, and happy editing!

Hello, AtticEdit
Welcome to Wikipedia! I edit here too, under the username SunDawn, and I thank you for your contributions.
I wanted to let you know, however, that I’ve proposed an article that you started, Georgia Pritchett, for deletion because it's a biography of a living person that lacks references. To prevent the deletion, please add a reference to the article. You may remove the deletion tag yourself once the article has at least one reliable source.
If you have any questions, please leave a comment here and prepend it with {{Re|SunDawn}}. And, don't forget to sign your reply with ~~~~ . Thanks!
(Message delivered via the Page Curation tool, on behalf of the reviewer.)
✠ SunDawn ✠ (contact) 02:48, 20 October 2022 (UTC)
- No worries, I'm just working on it now so it should be looking a bit better in a few hours - thanks for your help! AtticEdit (talk) 03:04, 20 October 2022 (UTC)
- @SunDawn - the page is still a WIP but I've fleshed out the sections and added a few references, is this enough to take down the deletion notice? AtticEdit (talk) 03:33, 20 October 2022 (UTC)
- No worries, someone has removed the deletion tag. It is there yesterday as you are creating biographies of a living person without any sources. As you have added sources, the tag for deletion can be removed. Thanks for creating the article and happy editing! ✠ SunDawn ✠ (contact) 12:58, 20 October 2022 (UTC)

Hello, I'm Doniago. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, The Second Coming (poem), but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so. You can have a look at referencing for beginners. If you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Please note that genius.com is a self-published source and furthermore would not satisfy WP:IPCV, as required for "in popular culture" items. DonIago (talk) 02:53, 30 March 2023 (UTC)
- Hey Doniago - thanks for this! I've popped it back in with a new source. Let me know if any changes are needed, there were a few other sources that mentioned the Yeats reference in the song, so I'm happy to change it if needed. AtticEdit (talk) 00:19, 4 April 2023 (UTC)
- It looks okay to me; thank you for understanding my concerns! DonIago (talk) 03:14, 4 April 2023 (UTC)

Women in Red 8th Anniversary |
| In July 2015 around 15.5% of the English Wikipedia's biographies were about women. As of July 2023, 19.61% of the English Wikipedia's biographies are about women. That's a lot of biographies created in the effort to close the gender gap. Happy 8th Anniversary! Join us for some virtual cake and add comments or memories and please keep on editing to close the gap! |

Editathon Weekend in Mohua / Golden Bay in February
Kia ora AtticEdit, I wasn't sure if you'd seen that WANZ is putting together an editathon weekend away in Golden Bay in February. If you on holiday in that location come along! See: Wikipedia:Meetup/Mohua / Golden Bay Einebillion (talk) 05:40, 13 November 2023 (UTC)
Invitation to an in-person meetup in Mohua / Golden Bay
Thinking about your summer break? Think about joining other Wikipedians and Wikimedians in Golden Bay / Mohua! Details are on the meetup page. There's heaps of interesting stuff to work on e.g. the oldest extant waka or New Zealand's oldest ongoing legal case. Or you may spend your time taking photos and then upload them.
Golden Bay is hard to get to and the airline flying into Tākaka uses small planes, so we are holding some seats from and to Wellington and we are offering attendees a $200 travel subsidy to help with costs.
Be in touch with Schwede66 if this event interests you and you'd like to discuss logistics. Schwede66 09:14, 13 November 2023 (UTC)
- Kia ora @Schwede66! I haven't logged in for a while but just saw this and the note from @Einebillion. I would absolutely love a summer break in Nelson but I'm actually moving to Australia in a month! So the bad news is no in person events for me in a while, but the good news is I'll have lots of free time for editing soon! AtticEdit (talk) 19:56, 13 November 2023 (UTC)
- All the best for your move. Big changes ahead, I assume? Our meetup is not in Nelson, though; it's a common misconception that Golden Bay is just round the corner from Nelson when, in fact, it's a 2-hour drive (one way). Hence my plea to people to think about the logistics. Schwede66 21:46, 13 November 2023 (UTC)
- Good luck in Australia. Wherever you settle I hope there are local wikiverse events for you to join. Our loss is Aussie’s gain. Einebillion (talk) 03:09, 17 November 2023 (UTC)

I was sorry to see, AtticEdit, that shortly after creating Lady Shaka you removed the Women in Red user box from you user page. Would you also like me to remove your name from our mailing list? In any case, thank you for creating nine women's biographies over the past three years. Whether or not you are a member, you are of course always welcome to create more articles about women. Happy editing!--Ipigott (talk) 07:59, 29 February 2024 (UTC)
- Hi @Ipigott, I'm sorry for this mix up - the formatting was broken and I couldn't get the label to sit correctly on the page. I added it into the text and removed the label and will fix this when I have time. AtticEdit (talk) 08:10, 29 February 2024 (UTC)
- That's good to hear. Thanks for your quick response.--Ipigott (talk) 08:14, 29 February 2024 (UTC)
