Hey folks! I've been working with the Wikimedia Search team to get topic predictions from mw:ORES into the search feature on Wikipedia. And I just realized that there was something really cool that you can do with it that y'all might be interested in. If you type "articletopic:women articletopic:stem" into the search box, it will return you a list of articles that my topic model thinks are about women scientists. You can further sort this list by article creation date and *boom*, you have a list of new articles about women scientists that can be tagged, sorted, and supported by this WikiProject. check it out. I'm excited about this because I think y'all are the right people to review these articles and support the (often new) contributors who are working on them. What do you think? I'd like to work with people to help bring feeds of topicly relevant stuff (new articles, edits, new editors, etc.) to WikiProjects like yours. -- EpochFail ( talk • contribs) 21:31, 2 April 2020 (UTC)

I came across this Columbia University professor when preparing her husband’s page for ITN—he is currently featured on Main Page as a recent death, sadly. As this might drive traffic to her and she is clearly wikinotable, I made a go at starting her page. But I am very far from expert in her areas of study, neuroscience and epidemiology (she studies aging and Alzheimer’s in those with Down syndrome). If anyone is available to lend a hand in punching up my first pass at it, I’d be grateful! Thank you for all you do. Innisfree987 ( talk) 04:58, 3 January 2021 (UTC)

Hello,
As a community liaison of Wikimedia Switzerland for English language participants, I'd like to inform you and invite you to an editathon centered on women scientists that EPFL will be holding on February 11th, 2021, from 2PM to 7PM (time of Bern). Non-beginners can pop in from 3:15PM on. Here is the project page (on meta)
As the date corresponds to the International Day of Women and Girls in Science, I understand the participants to this WikiProject are likely to be busy already, but we would be happy to have them join us if they would like to.-- Flor WMCH ( talk) 13:14, 2 February 2021 (UTC)

Hi, just an issue to discuss. Just wanted to name an issue, which I asked for consultation on, but was not able to get any thing on before the end of discussion. There is the issue of my inconsistencies on Mansigh btw main space and other-space, particularly afd- and Wp project-space, although it is particularly a matter for subjective interpretation. I’d like to end by once again apologising for any trouble and thanking anyone who offered any opinion or contribution to the chat, as well as for the space and audience in a place such as this.

Hello fellow Wikipedians. For any interested beginner editors like me, I see there is a Women in STEM in Wikipedia Editathon being hosted by Oregon State University this Friday, March 19, 2021 from 1-5PM (Pacific Time) online via Zoom and Slack.

(Originally posted this in the Worklist talk page) I tabulate the Scopus citation metrics of AfD academic subjects as compared to all or most of their coauthors, whose citation data I put into a giant spreadsheet. This leads me to the names of dozens of STEM women who generally pass NPROF C1 by very wide margins (e.g. Susan L. McElroy, whose h-index is 111). I have just now started putting them in a sortable table transcluded on my userpage. I include links to their relevant professional profiles as well as total citations, h-index, and highest single citation. I am no good at writing articles, but hopefully this will be of use to some of you? JoelleJay ( talk) 20:42, 19 March 2021 (UTC)
Hello. I thought I'd let you know that the Fellows of the Royal Society of Edinburgh worklist for WikiProject Women scientists is out of date. Currently, Wikipedia:WikiProject Women scientists/Worklist/Current FRSE only goes up to 2013. However, https://www.rse.org.uk/fellows/ states that there were women fellows since then, such as 2020. Therefore, this list and maybe Wikipedia:WikiProject Women scientists/Worklist/Deceased FRSE needs updating. Thanks! -- MrLinkinPark333 ( talk) 21:32, 12 April 2021 (UTC)
Hi! I had to spend the last semester learning how to use Wikipedia as an editor through WikiEdu for one of my University classes. I really enjoyed the work and I came across your project, which is fantastic endeavor! I'd like to join your project if I can (I'm new but I'll get better), but I'm not sure if there's anything I need to officially do to do that?
I did some updates on the pages of Christy Haynes /info/en/?search=Christy_Haynes and Catherine Murphy /info/en/?search=Catherine_J._Murphy as part of my class, so I'd love any feedback or thoughts on them. (If this wasn't the right place to post this message, just let me know! I think it's correct? But my class was part of the limnology and oceanography wiki project, so maybe they do things different over there). Steminist04 ( talk) 17:41, 21 May 2021 (UTC)
The article Donna Amenta has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
Seems to be a rather unremarkable scientist where the wiki page has been in need of citations for 8 years. As the one source provided on this page (which has been the only source since it's inception) is a broken link, this page defacto unsourced. I was unable to find anything meaningful about her through searching methods that could even come close to satisfying notability guidelines. There's also a list of books on the side of the page that she seems to not have written and I am not sure why they are there as they don't even seem science related? Of what I did find, she has an h-score of 5, which is quite terrible, and fails blatently at all WP:PROF guidelines, as well as WP:GNG.
While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.
You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}}
notice, but please explain why in your
edit summary or on
the article's talk page.
Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}}
will stop the
proposed deletion process, but other
deletion processes exist. In particular, the
speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and

Gillian Foulger has recently gained prominence in the media for reporting on Icelandia, the name she and her colleagues from Durham University have given to what they believe is a submerged continent between Greenland and Europe. I've added a snippet to Foulger's biography but it seem to me it deserves more attention, possibly with a new article on Icelandia. As geology is not my field, maybe one or more of your participants could help out.-- Ipigott ( talk) 09:29, 12 August 2021 (UTC)

Hi all
I'm exploring helping WIPO (UN World Intellectual Property Organization) import some data into Wikidata including names of people with most patents and people with the most cited patents. I want this information to be useful for Wikiproject Women Scientists to identify people who could have Wikipedia articles. Could someone who is more knowledgable than me tell me if patents (legal documents published by government agencies), scientific papers published in journals written authored by the person or references to patents in other patents and papers help towards notability? And if yes how much?
I also posted this question on Women in Red here
Thanks

Hello friends, Our year-long initiative at Women in Red this year focuses on Women and Climate - scientists and activists, both past and present who are working to combat climate change.

I have (with the help of others) made a small user script to detect and highlight various links to unreliable sources and predatory journals. Some of you may already be familiar with it, given it is currently the 39th most imported script on Wikipedia. The idea is that it takes something like
John Smith "[https://www.deprecated.com/article Article of things]" ''Deprecated.com''. Accessed 2020-02-14.
)and turns it into something like
It will work on a variety of links, including those from {{ cite web}}, {{ cite journal}} and {{ doi}}.
The script is mostly based on WP:RSPSOURCES, WP:NPPSG and WP:CITEWATCH and a good dose of common sense. I'm always expanding coverage and tweaking the script's logic, so general feedback and suggestions to expand coverage to other unreliable sources are always welcomed.
Do note that this is not a script to be mindlessly used, and several caveats apply. Details and instructions are available at User:Headbomb/unreliable. Questions, comments and requests can be made at User talk:Headbomb/unreliable.

Hello WikiProject Women scientists:
WikiProject Women in Green is holding a month-long
Good Article Editathon event in October 2022!
Running from October 1 to 31, 2022, WikiProject Women in Green (WiG) is hosting a Good Article (GA) editathon event – Wildcard Edition! Participants are invited to work on nominating and/or reviewing GA submissions related to any and all women and women's works during the event period. Want to improve an article about a Bollywood actress? Go for it. A pioneering female scientist? Absolutely. An award-winning autobiography by a woman? Yes! GA resources and one-on-one support will be provided by experienced GA editors, and participants will have the opportunity to receive a special WiG barnstar for their efforts.
We hope to see you there!

Please see Talk:Dorothy Hodgkin#Wiki Education assignment: General Chemistry I. -- Redrose64 🌹 ( talk) 21:21, 7 December 2022 (UTC)
As a result of comments stating that the list was not representative of the involvement of women in neuroscience on the talk page of WP:Women in Red, over the past few days I have undertaken a comprehensive update of this list. I am not too sure who are the experts in this area but I note that many of the individual biographies could benefit from updates too. It might also be useful to consider whether any of the women in Category:Women neurologists and Category:Women neurosurgeons could usefully be added to the list. There are of course considerable opportunities for expansion, for example on the basis of Wikipedia:WikiProject Women in Red/Missing articles by occupation/Neuroscientists. There are also a few red-linked entries on the list which would appear to deserve articles.-- Ipigott ( talk) 15:06, 31 December 2022 (UTC)

Quality assessments by Wikipedia editors rate articles in terms of completeness, organization, prose quality, sourcing, etc. Most wikiprojects follow the general guidelines at
Wikipedia:Content assessment, but some have specialized assessment guidelines. A recent
Village pump proposal was approved and has been implemented to add a |class=
parameter to {{
WikiProject banner shell}}, which can display a general quality assessment for an article, and to let project banner templates "inherit" this assessment.
No action is required if your wikiproject follows the standard assessment approach. Over time, quality assessments will be migrated up to {{ WikiProject banner shell}}, and your project banner will automatically "inherit" any changes to the general assessments for the purpose of assigning categories.
However, if your project has decided to "opt out" and follow a non-standard quality assessment approach, all you have to do is modify your wikiproject banner template to pass {{
WPBannerMeta}} a new |QUALITY_CRITERIA=custom
parameter. If this is done, changes to the general quality assessment will be ignored, and your project-level assessment will be displayed and used to create categories, as at present.

Thanks very much for this, I'll come back to you both when I have imported some names into Wikidata. John Cummings ( talk) 19:34, 6 September 2021 (UTC)
Hi JoelleJay, David Eppstein, Ipigott, with the help of WIPO I've imported a list of the 50 female inventors with the most cited patents worldwide into Wikidata, you can find the redlist and a discussion about it here /info/en/?search=Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Women_in_Red#50_female_inventors_with_the_most_cited_patents_worldwide
Thanks very much

Hello friends, Our year-long initiative at Women in Red this year focuses on Women and Climate - scientists and activists, both past and present who are working to combat climate change. If you're working on a biography like that, it would be fantastic if you could add it to the project page, and add WIR-214 as a template on the article's talk page! Happy editing!

I have (with the help of others) made a small user script to detect and highlight various links to unreliable sources and predatory journals. Some of you may already be familiar with it, given it is currently the 39th most imported script on Wikipedia. The idea is that it takes something like
John Smith "[https://www.deprecated.com/article Article of things]" ''Deprecated.com''. Accessed 2020-02-14.
)and turns it into something like
It will work on a variety of links, including those from {{ cite web}}, {{ cite journal}} and {{ doi}}.
The script is mostly based on WP:RSPSOURCES, WP:NPPSG and WP:CITEWATCH and a good dose of common sense. I'm always expanding coverage and tweaking the script's logic, so general feedback and suggestions to expand coverage to other unreliable sources are always welcomed.
Do note that this is not a script to be mindlessly used, and several caveats apply. Details and instructions are available at User:Headbomb/unreliable. Questions, comments and requests can be made at User talk:Headbomb/unreliable.

Is adding links on this page sufficient to de-orphan an article? I'm going through the cleanup page for WikiProject Microbiology and trying to address some of the calls for help. Geoffhunt3 ( talk) 21:03, 8 July 2022 (UTC)
Hello WikiProject Women scientists:
WikiProject Women in Green is holding a month-long
Good Article Editathon event in October 2022!
Running from October 1 to 31, 2022, WikiProject Women in Green (WiG) is hosting a Good Article (GA) editathon event – Wildcard Edition! Participants are invited to work on nominating and/or reviewing GA submissions related to any and all women and women's works during the event period. Want to improve an article about a Bollywood actress? Go for it. A pioneering female scientist? Absolutely. An award-winning autobiography by a woman? Yes! GA resources and one-on-one support will be provided by experienced GA editors, and participants will have the opportunity to receive a special WiG barnstar for their efforts.
We hope to see you there!
Goldsztajn ( talk) 01:20, 24 September 2022 (UTC)I proposed a few updates to the article about neurologist Leslie B. Vosshall here: Talk:Leslie B. Vosshall#Proposals October 2022. I have a conflict of interest as a paid consultant but believe these changes are obvious improvements to address sourcing issues pointed out in a maintenance tag. A review by a project member would be very much appreciated. Thanks. W12SW77 ( talk) 21:38, 12 October 2022 (UTC)

Please see Talk:Dorothy Hodgkin#Wiki Education assignment: General Chemistry I. -- Redrose64 🌹 ( talk) 21:21, 7 December 2022 (UTC)
As a result of comments stating that the list was not representative of the involvement of women in neuroscience on the talk page of WP:Women in Red, over the past few days I have undertaken a comprehensive update of this list. I am not too sure who are the experts in this area but I note that many of the individual biographies could benefit from updates too. It might also be useful to consider whether any of the women in Category:Women neurologists and Category:Women neurosurgeons could usefully be added to the list. There are of course considerable opportunities for expansion, for example on the basis of Wikipedia:WikiProject Women in Red/Missing articles by occupation/Neuroscientists. There are also a few red-linked entries on the list which would appear to deserve articles.-- Ipigott ( talk) 15:06, 31 December 2022 (UTC)
At the moment, the lede and the title of this page differ in capitalization. I think I would lean toward preferring the title case version all around, but thoughts? BhamBoi ( talk) 21:33, 7 April 2023 (UTC)

Quality assessments by Wikipedia editors rate articles in terms of completeness, organization, prose quality, sourcing, etc. Most wikiprojects follow the general guidelines at
Wikipedia:Content assessment, but some have specialized assessment guidelines. A recent
Village pump proposal was approved and has been implemented to add a |class=
parameter to {{
WikiProject banner shell}}, which can display a general quality assessment for an article, and to let project banner templates "inherit" this assessment.
No action is required if your wikiproject follows the standard assessment approach. Over time, quality assessments will be migrated up to {{ WikiProject banner shell}}, and your project banner will automatically "inherit" any changes to the general assessments for the purpose of assigning categories.
However, if your project has decided to "opt out" and follow a non-standard quality assessment approach, all you have to do is modify your wikiproject banner template to pass {{
WPBannerMeta}} a new |QUALITY_CRITERIA=custom
parameter. If this is done, changes to the general quality assessment will be ignored, and your project-level assessment will be displayed and used to create categories, as at present.

A peer review has been opened for Elisabeth Geleerd, an article under the scope of this WikiProject, to potentially prepare it for featured article candidacy. Interested editors are invited to participate at the discussion page. Vaticidal prophet 23:03, 11 July 2023 (UTC)
I thought that this might be of interest here. This article also has many relevant links, including links to about ten scholarly articles.

I have drawn the attention of WikiProject Women in Green to this article which could benefit from improvement, possibly as a candidate for GA. Perhaps members of Women Scientists would like to collaborate.-- Ipigott ( talk) 06:01, 3 October 2023 (UTC)
I recently moved a section from Crystallography#Contribution of women to X-ray crystallography to X-ray crystallography#Contribution of women to X-ray crystallography. Additions/edits welcome, particularly as both pages are really short on sources in this and many other areas. (I am slowly trying to repair them.) Ldm1954 ( talk) 19:22, 6 December 2023 (UTC)

I have nominated Emmy Noether for a featured article review here. Please join the discussion on whether this article meets the featured article criteria. Articles are typically reviewed for two weeks. If substantial concerns are not addressed during the review period, the article will be moved to the Featured Article Removal Candidates list for a further period, where editors may declare "Keep" or "Delist" in regards to the article's featured status. The instructions for the review process are here. Z1720 ( talk) 20:31, 15 January 2024 (UTC)
