Women in RedHi there, Chocmilk03, and welcome to Women in Red. I see that over the past two or three weeks you have created quite a number of biographies of NZ writers, including several about women. You seem to have grasped the essentials of Wikipedia editing but if you now want to concentrate on women, you might find it useful to browse through our Ten Simple Rules and our Primer for creating women's biographies. Please let me know if you run into any difficulties or need assistance. Happy editing!--Ipigott (talk) 12:13, 27 October 2020 (UTC)

This feature will have no effect on your editing, and is simply intended to reduce the workload on new page patrollers. For more information on the autopatrolled right, see Wikipedia:Autopatrolled. However, you should consider adding relevant wikiproject talk-page templates, stub-tags and categories to new articles that you create if you aren't already in the habit of doing so, since your articles will no longer be systematically checked by other editors (User:Evad37/rater and User:SD0001/StubSorter.js are useful scripts which can help).

Draft:Lexie Matheson name questionHi there! I just have a quick question about naming conventions. Whilst Lexie Matheson's full name is Alexandra Mary Raine Matheson, if you google that you get almost no results, and she is known as Lexie. I wonder if it would be worth just changing the name in the lead to Lexie Matheson, and put her full name in the infobox? I tried to look at the naming conventions, but couldn't find anything that meets this scenario! Thank you. Nauseous Man (talk) 20:41, 9 November 2021 (UTC)
