Thanks much. I think I know what fixes you noticed. For background, see the request on Wikipedia:AutoWikiBrowser/Tasks to fix links to "Wings of a Dove". Cheers! Chris the speller yack 05:02, 27 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Survey

Hi Housewatcher!

I have put together a survey for female editors of Wikipedia (and related projects) in order to explore, in greater detail, women's experiences and roles within the Wikimedia movement. It'd be wonderful if you could participate!

It's an independent survey, done by me, as a fellow volunteer Wikimedian. It is not being done on behalf of the Wikimedia Foundation. I hope you'll participate!

Just click this link to participate in this survey, via Google!

Any questions or concerns, feel free to email me or stop by my user talk page. Also, feel free to share this any other female Wikimedians you may know. It is in English, but any language Wikimedia participants are encouraged to participate. I appreciate your contributions - to the survey and to Wikipedia! Thank you!

Stub category

In [1] you added a stub category with category code. It doesn't look like a stub to me and stub categories are supposed to be added via stub templates like {{Ohio-politician-stub}}. Did you mean to add a normal (not a stub) category? The article creator posted to Wikipedia:New contributors' help page/questions#Marian Spencer. PrimeHunter (talk) 23:58, 5 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

It's been awhile since I added that, but I think I added it at the time because the article was new and a work in progress. It looks the article has been updated a lot since then. Thanks for removing the category. Housewatcher (talk) 02:17, 6 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]
OK. See the guideline at Wikipedia:Stub. PrimeHunter (talk) 10:56, 6 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]
