Women in Red
Hi there, SapientSquid, and welcome to Women in Red. You'll see in my welcome message above that there are a number of links to sites which provide guidance on Wikipedia editing. When you feel you are ready to create a biography, you should look through our Ten Simple Rules ↗. Please let me know if you run into any difficulties or need assistance. Happy editing!--Ipigott (talk) 11:35, 15 November 2023 (UTC)
:Hello Ipigott, thank you for reaching out.
:I've created a short biography of Álof árbót Haraldsdottir and am ready to submit it for publishing. I see this section in Women in Red's "Primer for creating women's biographies" page:
:"The article is basically complete and you can move it to main space or ask an editor you trust to review it and '''move it to main space'''. It is not recommended that you submit drafts to Wikipedia:Articles for creation ↗. If you do not have the ability to move an article, or have no relationship with an editor you trust, post a review request on the Women in Red Talk Page ↗."
:Do you recommend that I do this, and can you advise me how I can make the draft available to an individual editor rather than submitting it into the general pool?
:Thank you. SapientSquid (talk) 12:16, 15 November 2023 (UTC)
::An editor will not see your message here unless your start it with their user name, {eg User:Jimfbleak for me) and sign it with four tildes <nowiki>~~~~</nowiki> when you post it. That will send an alert. You cannot in general pick your reviewer <b style="font-family:Lucida;color:red">Jimfbleak</b> - <i style="font-family:arial;color:green">talk to me?</i> 08:59, 17 November 2023 (UTC)

Comment
Welcome! Just a couple of minor comments. I see that you use ''ibid'' in your refs. While that's common in print, there is no "final version" on Wikipedia, and if another editor inserts an intervening ref, the ''ibid'' becomes confusing. Better to cite your text at the bottom and use the "author (year) page number(s)" format for the ref. Also note that page ranges should use an endash –, not a hyphen. Keep up the good work <b style="font-family:Lucida;color:red">Jimfbleak</b> - <i style="font-family:arial;color:green">talk to me?</i> 08:55, 17 November 2023 (UTC)

Biographies of English women
Hi there, SapientSquid. I've just been looking through your articles ↗, reviewing and assessing those requiring attention. You have certainly been making many useful contributions. Keep up the good work. I see from the above messages that you have been trying to create articles with the Q reference from Wikidata. This often appears in redlists when the entry coincides with a name which already exists as a title of an article. When you create such articles, you should change the Q reference to something else, e.g. Jean Doe (painter).--Ipigott (talk) 07:14, 24 April 2024 (UTC)

HI SapientSquid, I just wanted to thank you for writing the bio for Rachael Annie Cox-Davies ↗ .

Hi , I noticed that an article you started, Winifred Blatchford ↗, had been tagged as a Wikipedia:Orphan ↗ because no other articles linked to it.

Ways to improve Elsie Woodward Kassner
Hello, SapientSquid,
Thank you for creating Elsie Woodward Kassner ↗.
I have tagged the page ↗ as having some issues to fix, as a part of our page curation process ↗ and note that:
{{Quote|1=It's hard to see which notability criteria this biography meets. There don't seem to be articles that focus on them.}}
The tags can be removed by you or another editor once the issues they mention are addressed. If you have questions, leave a comment here and begin it with <code><nowiki>{{Re|</nowiki>Klbrain<nowiki>}}</nowiki></code>. Remember to sign your reply with <code><nowiki>~~~~</nowiki></code>. For broader editing help, please visit the Teahouse ↗.

A tag has been placed on :Sophia the Martyr (Q15916381) ↗ requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section R3 of the criteria for speedy deletion ↗, because it is a recently created redirect from an implausible typo or misnomer, or other unlikely search term.
If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may '''contest the nomination''' by visiting the page ↗ and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay.

Alice Sherard, Lady Brownlow ↗ moved to draftspace
Thanks for your contributions to Alice Sherard, Lady Brownlow ↗. Unfortunately, I do not think it is ready for publishing as a live article at this time because '''it needs more sources to establish notability''' and '''at present I can only see a single source giving significant coverage (a couple of paragraphs or more) to the topic. One or two more should be enough to pass WP:GNG ↗'''.
I have converted it to a draft which you can improve, undisturbed for a while.
Please see more information at Help:Unreviewed new page ↗.
When the article is ready for publication, please click on the "Submit the draft for review!" button at the top of the page OR move the page back. Boynamedsue (talk) 09:05, 3 April 2026 (UTC)
