2025 Update from Women in Green

Hello Averageuntitleduser:

2024 has wrapped up, and what a full year it was for WikiProject Women in Green! Over the past year, we hosted two edit-a-thons, one themed around women's history and another on women around the world. We also managed to achieve most of our 2024 annual goals, nominating 75 articles for GA, reviewing 64 GA nominations, nominating 8 articles for FAC, peer reviewing 3 articles and reviewing 10 FAC nominations. Excellent work, and thank you to everyone involved!

For 2025 we have a new set of goals for nominations and reviews. In particular, we would like to see more articles on our Hot 100 list being improved and nominated for GA this year. If you take a look at the list and see an article you are interested in contributing to, feel free to add it and yourself to our Hot 100 project discussion. You might even find someone interested in collaborating with you!

This year, as with every year, we hope you will join us in helping improve our coverage of women and women's works on this encyclopedia. Every contribution helps. We'll see you around!

DYK for Mother Solomon

On 4 January 2025, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Mother Solomon, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that Mother Solomon (pictured) returned to Ohio 22 years after the Indian Removal Act forced her people, the Wyandots, into Kansas? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Mother Solomon. You are welcome to check how many pageviews the nominated article or articles got while on the front page (here's how, Mother Solomon), and the hook may be added to the statistics page after its run on the Main Page has completed. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page.

How to see how many articles use a source

Hey!! Thank you so much for the review of Boneyard AKA Fearmonger! I just wanted to ask how you saw how many FAs/GAs include a specific source, I think that'd be very helpful for me in the future when determining if a source is fine or not (if it's not listed at WP:A/S). Thank you again !!! Locust member (talk) 22:24, 9 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Locust member: Of course. In the search box, you can use the insource: and hastemplate: paramaters together to find articles that cite a specific source and have a GA/FA template. See this for example. You may also find WP:PetScan helpful. Averageuntitleduser (talk) 00:17, 10 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Appreciate it :) Locust member (talk) 03:10, 10 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Fishmonger

Hey, it's me again! I just wanted to let you know I created the Fishmonger article and put it up for GA. I would love, if you have the time of course, if you were to review it–I feel like it wouldn't be appropriate to get it reviewed by somebody other than you !! Locust member (talk) 22:45, 23 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Locust member: I would love to. Expect to see me there in a few days. Averageuntitleduser (talk) 15:43, 25 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Awesome, thank you so much!!! Locust member (talk) 20:43, 25 February 2025 (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 great contributions! (courtesy of the Wikipedia Editor Retention Project)

User:TechnoSquirrel69 submitted the following nomination for Editor of the Week:

I first encountered Averageuntitleduser when he provided a

GAN review for Worlds (Porter Robinson album), and, even with less than a thousand edits to his name at the time, impressed me with his knowledge of how to write great articles and ability to provide actionable feedback. As his user page shows, he's made many more excellent reviews and built up a portfolio of his own quality writing, including several GAs on Haitian women,

an FL, and my personal favorite:

Mother Solomon. I see in AUU a formidable content writer who seems only to be getting started, and I hope you'll join me in appreciating his contributions to the project. This nomination was seconded by Vacant0, QuicoleJR, and HouseBlaster.

Thanks again for your efforts! Buster7 ^Chat 19:31, 2 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks User:TechnoSquirrel69, and all who seconded! This is so kind! I've only begun, but I see myself sticking around for a long time and trying to make a dent in some systemic biases. At least, my my to-do list seems to never stop growing. Thanks again! Averageuntitleduser (talk) 02:39, 3 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Contingency Song

Hey! Just wanted to let you know I put up "Contingency Song" for FAC. The PR was closed for inactivity, so I went ahead put it up for the final boss. Would love comments from you (and just wanted to let you know in case you were wondering why the PR was archived). Locust member (talk) 03:53, 4 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Locust member: yeah, I saw the peer review was closed. The article seems ready enough for FAC though, and it helps that it is so short. I have signed on there. Averageuntitleduser (talk) 19:33, 4 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

DYK for Food House

On 16 June 2025, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Food House, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that the musical duo Food House was named after their frequent use of Uber Eats? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Food House. You are welcome to check how many pageviews the nominated article or articles got while on the front page (here's how, Food House), and the hook may be added to the statistics page after its run on the Main Page has completed.

The DCWC is back!

Hey Averageuntitleduser, the Developing Countries WikiContest will be returning for a second year, and sign-ups are now open! The contest will run from 1 July to 30 September, and the objective remains the same: improve as many articles relating to developing countries as you can to help fight systemic bias on Wikipedia.

In other news, we have a new face on the coordinator team this year: last year's sixth-place finisher, Arconning (talk · contribs)! The coordinators would like to extend a sincere thanks to Ixtal (talk · contribs), who is leaving the team, without whom the contest would not exist. After feedback from contestants last year, the scoring rules are undergoing some modifications; the new rules and a summary of the changes made will be posted to the contest talk page shortly.

If you have any questions, please leave a message on the contest talk page or contact one of the coordinators: Arconning (talk · contribs), sawyer777 (talk · contribs), or TechnoSquirrel69 (talk · contribs).

Archive links for newspapers.com

Hi. Why are you removing archive links for newspapers.com?-- Jahalive (talk) 19:48, 22 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Jahalive: Sure. I was trying to replace some inaccessible Newspapers.com links with clippings. Since Newspapers.com is already acting as an archive and its clippings stay online indefinitely, Archive.org links may not be needed. Averageuntitleduser (talk) 04:37, 23 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

But if newspapers.com closes or doesn't host that content anymore, it would be useful to have the archive link.--Jahalive (talk) 18:46, 23 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

That's fair. I can't find much in the guidelines about this, and since I know different editors have different preferences, I'll stick to the status quo of the article I'm editing in the future. Averageuntitleduser (talk) 19:10, 23 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Sounds good. If you're interested you can check out Wikipedia:Link rot--Jahalive (talk) 19:20, 23 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
