Art Feminism, Jacob Lawrence Gallery, Saturday, April 6th, 1-5 PM

[edit]
Art Feminism
For more info see
the meetup page
for Art Feminism
.
Wikipedia’s gender trouble is well-documented. In a 2011 survey, the Wikimedia Foundation found that less than 10% of its contributors were women. While the reasons for the gender gap are up for debate, the practical effect of this disparity is not: content is skewed by the lack of representation from women.

Let’s change that.

To help change this, the Jacob Lawrence Gallery is continuing a series of Edit-a-thons to improve Wikipedia's coverage of womxn and gender non-binary artists of color.

Childcare, snacks from local businesses, and editing tutorials will be provided.

All you need to bring is your laptop, power cord, and ideas. No previous Wikipedia experience required!

Everyone is welcome. Access to UW wifi will be provided for non-UW affiliated participants.

Please create a Wikipedia account before the event.

RSVP through this Facebook event link.

When: Saturday, Apr. 6, 2019, 1–5 PM
Where: Jacob Lawrence Gallery, Art Building #132, 1915 NE Chelan Ln, Seattle, WA 98105
Event Sponsors: Jacob Lawrence Gallery, School of Art Art History Design
Event Page: Art Feminism Wikipedia Edit-a-thon
Parking: Free parking is normally available on campus after 12pm on Saturdays.

Art Feminism Wikipedia Edit-a-thon: Womxn Artists of the Pacific Northwest

[edit]
Calendar page Jacob Lawrence Gallery — Calendar | School of Art Art History Design | University of Washington
When Saturday, Nov. 16, 2019, 1 – 5 p.m.
Campus location Art Building (ART)
Campus room Jacob Lawrence Gallery
Event types Special Events, Student Activities, Workshops
Event sponsors Jacob Lawrence Gallery, School of Art Art History Design with support from Wikipedia and Art Feminism

Description
  • Free parking is normally available on campus after 12pm on Saturdays.
  • Check the Gallery's website for information about getting there.
  • The ‘Big Four,’ or the four white male artists that comprised the Northwest School, were the subject of the famous 1953 LIFE magazine article, "Mystic Painters of the Northwest": Guy Anderson, Kenneth Callahan, Morris Graves, and Mark Tobey. Each of these artists have robust pages on Wikipedia. However, key female-identifying artists from this time such as Margaret Gove Cafferman — who Mark Tobey cited as an influence on his work — lack Wikipedia articles.[* 1] To help address the imbalance of representation on Wikipedia, the Jacob Lawrence Gallery is organizing an Art Feminism Wikipedia Edit-a-thon focused on female-identifying artists of the Pacific Northwest.
  • Childcare, snacks from local businesses, editing tutorials, books, and lists of artists will be provided.
  • All you need to bring is your laptop, power cord, and ideas. No previous Wikipedia experience required!
  • Everyone is welcome. Access to UW wifi will be provided for non-UW affiliated participants.
  • Please create a Wikipedia account before the event.

Castle Rock School District moved to draftspace

[edit]

An article you recently created, Castle Rock School District, is not suitable as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page. SounderBruce 23:17, 11 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Hi SounderBruce I was not very keen on making the Castle Rock School District page. Originally, I just wanted to update some of the information on the Rural school districts in Washington page. The beginning of that page says rural school districts were defined as districts with under 1,000 students. Castle Rock was sitting around 1,500 so I did not think it met the criteria to be listed on the page. Do you think it's appropriate to possibly change the wording of what defines a rural school district? If so, I would be happy to not create the Castle Rock page and just add it to the rural list page. --Chilcokr (talk) 14:02, 12 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

The criteria doesn't seem to be one that needs to be set in stone, so go for it. We probably don't need articles for rural districts of this size, and especially ones with few reliable sources. SounderBruce 18:22, 15 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Understood. Thank you for the help. Chilcokr (talk) 20:29, 15 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
