I dream of horses Many thanks for the welcome - - I am sure that the 'call for help' function will be very useful indeed when it comes to setting up a new project page (hoping to turn our one off meetup into a more systematic and regular thing!). Thank you. --Medievalfran (talk) 15:07, 29 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Women in Red

Hi there, Medievalfran, and welcome to Women in Red. I see you have already created three biographies. As a relatively recent editor, you might be interested in our Ten Simple Rules. If ever you run into any difficulties or need assistance, please let me know. Happy editing!--Ipigott (talk) 16:31, 25 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Ipigott Thank you very much for the link to the rules and info about the Women in Red initiatives! Looking forward to working on more bios soon.Medievalfran (talk) 13:08, 27 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Help adding an article about prominent woman?

Hi there, I'm new to Wikipedia and don't really know how it works, but I created an article about a prominant and notable woman. I'm wondering how to get it to appear on Wikipedia. Can you help? It's over here:

Thank you!!! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 1Mynamegoeshere1 (talkcontribs) 23:11, 7 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

→→1Mynamegoeshere1 Hi there! If you 'publish' the page, it should appear. At the moment it appears as a draft. You may need to 'search' for your subject, then create the page when the search results prompt you to do so. Furthermore, to increase the chance of the article 'surviving', I think you need to add a lot more information, with more citations. You might also find this page helpful https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:How_to_create_a_page. Hope that helps! Medievalfran (talk) 10:15, 10 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]
