Welcome!

Welcome to Wikipedia, J.myers2! Thank you for your contributions and for joining the SuSanA Wikipedia Edit-a-thon for World Water Day. I am EMsmile, and I am a part of the team wishing to improve sanitation-related articles on Wikipedia. If you have any questions about editing on Wikipedia during or after this event, please feel free to leave me a message on my talk page. You can also check out Wikipedia:Questions.

We are continuing to count edits of registered users for the edit-a-thon until 31 March 2017 using the tool Outreach Dashboard, for which you have registered, see here. So please continue to edit until 31 March, and of course beyond that date, too!

Here are some pages about Wikipedia editing that you might find helpful:

Welcome to Sanitation Wikipedia!

Hi J.myers2, I noticed that you added your name to the Outreach Dashboard of the Sanitation Wikipedia project here. That's great, thank you for your contributions!

I am EMsmile, and I am a part of a group of people wishing to improve sanitation-related articles on Wikipedia (which also includes topics around water supply and public health). If you have any questions about this work, please feel free to leave me a message on my talk page.

After running our first SuSanA Wikipedia Edit-a-thon for World Water Day in March 2017, we are now doing something similar but better for World Toilet Day. This drive is taking place during the two months prior to 19 November 2017. We've put together an outline of how we see this working here in our Meetup page. This time we are focussing on a select few number of articles (we have chosen 70). Also we are focussing mainly on improving their readability scores and their leads.

Can you help? Then please start editing and improving any number of those 70 articles which are listed here. And please get in touch with us on the talk page of that meetup page because it is always more fun to feel part of a team effort!

Also if you are interested in improving sanitation-related articles in general, you may want to join WikiProject Sanitation as well, which is a longer term effort, not limited to World Toilet Day.EMsmile (talk) 23:42, 21 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
