:It is my pleasure to nominate Editor Lajmmoore to be this weeks Editor of the Week. This user has been a Wikipedian for just under two years, but in that time has created over 200 articles in English Wikipedia. Their start in life on Wikipedia doesn't seem to have been the easiest: their first two articles were deleted, but they were not put off, and rose above initial problems (with some [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:Alarichall#Leeds%20Museums%20&%20Galleries|technical help from me]]) to successfully recreate those articles and to create many more since with no difficulties. They have focused their efforts on extending Wikipedia's biographical coverage of women from the Global South, helping to correct a well known bias in Wikipedia's coverage. Where I have seen their editing work, I have been very impressed at their ability to track down and assimilate reliable information about important figures about whom information is not readily available on the Internet, including dealing with source materials in languages other than English (e.g. [[Aïcha Ben Abed]], [[Paulina (wife of Pammachius)]], [[Fatima al-Suqutriyya]]). They have done their editing work in particular through active involvement in [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Women in Red|Women in Red]] (along with other projects), and notices on their talk page evidence a string of successes in getting pages they have created onto 'did you know?', again bespeaking their enthusiastic engagement with the wider Wikipedia community. I note too that they are doing a PhD and are contributing material to Wikipedia in the course of their research: User:Lajmmoore/PhD Research. I've had many PhD students of my own and, while all lovely people, they are uniformly fabulously reluctant to share their knowledge in this way. Lajmmoore points the way towards a more open future for academia, and a greater willingness among the gatekeepers of the world's knowledge to share it.

Hi

Great to meet you today, it's really nice to chat and not work in a vacuum. Thanks also for reminding me what it's like to be new(ish) and to make me challenge some stuck in the rut ways I may have fallen into. Nthep (talk) 17:37, 11 October 2019 (UTC) Thanks for the gracious message @Nthep: it was great to meet you too - thanks for sharing your skills with us. I am hoping to run a couple of 'introduction to editing' events with the museum next month and in the Spring - if you'd like to know when they are I can let you know![reply]

@Cwmhiraeth: Thanks so much! This is such a nice message to receive. Thanks! I really enjoyed learning about Myrtle, and I hope other people do too. (Lajmmoore (talk) 19:07, 14 January 2020 (UTC))[reply]


My works

Hello. My works in sciences and engineering are not only in chemistry and nanotechnology. My works in philosophy including my philosophical system (netism) and my other papers are not about Islam or any other religion. I have never written about any religion. There is no review or discussion on Islam or any other religion in my paper including netism that was published here by the Center for the Great Islamic Encyclopedia. This encyclopedia is not restricted to religion, but it also includes entries in philosophy, social sciences (history, geography, linguistics), etc. Concerning my literary works, my poem books and short story books were published by several publishers such as Novin Pajhoohesh publishing, Arvin publishing, etc. and not only one publisher as you have mentioned in the entry on my name. My art works that are not mentioned in this entry are also important parts of my works. Therefore, this entry on Wikipedia is a brief biography. Thank you for your attention. Taraneh Javanbakht (talk) 17:35, 17 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hi @135.23.194.236: Thanks very much for these clarifications - do you have secondary sources to your artwork? The reason I didn't include them as I couldn't find secondary references, but I'd be really pleased to add them. Thanks very much (Lajmmoore (talk) 18:35, 17 February 2020 (UTC))[reply]
Hi @135.23.194.236: - I added a sentence and changed the detail on netism, apologies for the mistake. If you have a secondary source to Novin Pajhoohesh publisher (language doesn't matter) I'd love to add a citation. (Lajmmoore (talk) 22:33, 17 February 2020 (UTC))[reply]
My biography and reviews of my works have been published in many secondary sources that you can upload some of them from the below links:

- Radio Zamaneh:

http://archive.is/1gyl

http://zamaaneh.com/ravi/2007/05/post_93.html

- Reviews on my works:

The pdf files of journals including reviews on my works that were published in Iran:

http://archive.is/UQ4L0

You can also upload them from the list of reviews on my works that is available here:

http://javanbakht.net/en/modules.php?name=Content&pa=showpage&pid=31

Other secondary sources are published books and you can find their list in the below link:

http://javanbakht.net/en/modules.php?name=Content&pa=showpage&pid=60

You can also find other secondary sources (news agencies, newspapers, radios, etc.) from the below link:

http://javanbakht.net/en/modules.php?name=Content&pa=showpage&pid=9

However, I think that Wikipedia is not a real encyclopedia as most notable sources and information are censored in its entries. Thanks. Taraneh Javanbakht — Preceding unsigned comment added by 135.23.194.236 (talk) 23:03, 17 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, here are the links of two secondary sources about my poem book including my name and the name of Novin Pajoohesh publishing:

https://vista.ir/m/b/cbbcs/%D8%B9%D8%B5%D8%B1-%D8%A2%DB%8C%D9%86%D9%87

Other publishers republished other editions of my poem books and short story books. Here is the link concerning the publication of the third edition of my other book:

Hallo

Good to "meet" you yesterday! I lived in Leeds till moving to rural Lancashire to care for my Mother (and worked at Uni Library for many years), so have edited bits and pieces of Leeds stuff over the years. Now I just dip into whatever takes my fancy, as a retired layabout, and tend to get lured off down time-sink rabbit-holes on a wide range of topics. See my page creation list on my user page: I'm really glad I've kept that list over the years as otherwise I'd have no recollection of why I created some of those pages. They tend to be solidly-source, well-cross-referenced little stubs, enough to help the reader get access to some good sources of info on the topic. PamD 12:09, 17 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hi @PamD: it was really nice to "meet" you too! I really enjoy editing - it's really fun to get stuck into a topic or a person. One of my goals is to work on more Leeds articles, especially women linked to the city. Looking forward to seeing your next articles. (Lajmmoore (talk) 07:25, 18 May 2020 (UTC))[reply]


Thank you

Suffrage conventions, etc

Hi! I have another one that will have more references for sure if you're interested: Ohio Women's Convention at Akron in 1851. It's where Sojourner Truth gave her "Ain't I a Woman?" speech. I'm so glad you're interested in helping out. :) Megalibrarygirl (talk) 18:30, 3 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Megalibrarygirl, OK Cool! I'll have a go at the Ohio one first! Lajmmoore (talk) 19:11, 3 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Editor of the Week

Editor of the Week
Your ongoing efforts to improve the encyclopedia have not gone unnoticed: You have been selected as Editor of the Week in recognition of your impressive beginning. Thank you for the great contributions! (courtesy of the Wikipedia Editor Retention Project)

User:Alarichall submitted the following nomination for Editor of the Week:

It is my pleasure to nominate Editor Lajmmoore to be this weeks Editor of the Week. This user has been a Wikipedian for just under two years, but in that time has created over 200 articles in English Wikipedia. Their start in life on Wikipedia doesn't seem to have been the easiest: their first two articles were deleted, but they were not put off, and rose above initial problems (with some [help from me]) to successfully recreate those articles and to create many more since with no difficulties. They have focused their efforts on extending Wikipedia's biographical coverage of women from the Global South, helping to correct a well known bias in Wikipedia's coverage. Where I have seen their editing work, I have been very impressed at their ability to track down and assimilate reliable information about important figures about whom information is not readily available on the Internet, including dealing with source materials in languages other than English (e.g. Aïcha Ben Abed, Paulina (wife of Pammachius), Fatima al-Suqutriyya). They have done their editing work in particular through active involvement in Women in Red (along with other projects), and notices on their talk page evidence a string of successes in getting pages they have created onto 'did you know?', again bespeaking their enthusiastic engagement with the wider Wikipedia community. I note too that they are doing a PhD and are contributing material to Wikipedia in the course of their research: User:Lajmmoore/PhD Research. I've had many PhD students of my own and, while all lovely people, they are uniformly fabulously reluctant to share their knowledge in this way. Lajmmoore points the way towards a more open future for academia, and a greater willingness among the gatekeepers of the world's knowledge to share it.

You can copy the following text to your user page to display a user box proclaiming your selection as Editor of the Week: 

{{User:UBX/EoTWBox}}

Thanks again for your efforts! ―Buster7 ☎ 22:31, 30 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
