Women in Red translation contest: April to June 2022

At the beginning of April, WikiProject Women in Red is launching a three-month translation contest focused on increasing our coverage of women's biographies.--Ipigott (talk) 09:53, 26 March 2022 (UTC)

The Core Contest

WP:The Core Contest is set to start April 15 this year, in its tenth iteration. It's an exciting contest, running over a period of six weeks, with £250 of prize money for the articles that are most improved. It would be great if we could get participants to improve a biography, with Rosa Luxemburg and Tolstoy just two of the vital (level 3/level 4) articles judged to be C-class.

Requested move for Death of Arnold Walker

See Talk:Death of Arnold Walker#Requested move 20 March 2022. It's a complicated naming issue peculiar to Australia, but it needs some uninvolved editors. Laterthanyouthink (talk) 01:27, 28 March 2022 (UTC)

Talk:Meric Gertler

Editors in this wikiproject may be interested in the discussion I opened regarding the BLP Meric Gertler at Talk:Meric Gertler. I think this is a badly unbalanced BLP, but it has very few watchers, and I am reluctant to make large changes to the page because I am a graduate of the university that he is the president of. - Astrophobe (talk) 23:13, 28 March 2022 (UTC)

Help with University project

I am a new user, completing a university course where I have to update a Wikipedia:Stub article. I have chosen Peter Nicol Russell who was a Scottish/Australian foundry owner and engineer. I have been slowly updating content on the page. The page is very focused on biographically presenting his history and achievements. I was hoping to reach out to a senior editor to see whether you could provide me with some pointers on how I can improve the article? I am really keen to keep contributing to Wikipedia after my coursework ends, so it would be great to have an ongoing Wiki-relationship with someone who has the time to guide me through the improvements it needs, as well as any that I work on in the future. I'd love for the article to reach a C or B class if possible. Thanks in advance! Chasseur99 (talk) 02:53, 31 March 2022 (UTC)

Please get in touch with me via my talk page if you have any advice to help me on my journey. Thanks! Chasseur99 (talk) 11:55, 31 March 2022 (UTC)

Kat Reeder

A new user, User:Nesta007, is taking photos from Kat Reeder's Instagram/Twitter and uploading them to her Wiki page through WikiCommons. Can someone look into the photographs and see if they are actually free to use and/or warn/block the user for uploading them? The images are File:Kat Reeder Licorice Pizza.jpg and File:Alana Haim and Kat Reeder.png. Some Dude From North Carolina (talk) 01:38, 31 March 2022 (UTC)

I have asked Mrs. Reeder's permission to upload the photos and she has approved. Nesta007 (talk) 18:33, 31 March 2022 (UTC)

@Nesta007: Do you have proof of such interaction? Some Dude From North Carolina (talk) 18:49, 31 March 2022 (UTC)

Yes I do. I'm happy to provide it to Wikipedia if they request it. Nesta007 (talk) 19:36, 31 March 2022 (UTC)
