Welcome![edit]

Welcome to Wikipedia!

Hello, MumphingSquirrel, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Here are some tips that you might find helpful:

  • Link to other articles with [[double square brackets]]
  • Add pictures from Wikimedia Commons using [[double square brackets with|thumb for thumbnail|Left, right or center so it knows where to go|a meaningful caption|alt=a description for blind people]]
    • Example [[Image:Chocolate chip cookies.jpg|thumb|right|Wiki biscuits are guaranteed zero calories! ]]
    • Click here for an exercise in adding images to articles.
  • Now you know how to add pictures to Wikipedia, why not add your own? This shows you articles that are near you. Is there one without a picture or where you could take a better one? In many countries modern buildings are still copyrighted, but not in the UK and some other places. This is the upload page on Wikimedia Commons.
  • Add headings with ==double equal signs==
    • If an article has sections two editors can edit different sections simultaneously without edit conflicts. Four or more sections and you get a table of contents.
    • Here are articles where you can practice adding sections when you've finished splitting an article into sections you can delete {{sections|date=Month year}} from the top of the page.
      • ===subheadings are similar===
  • When you add information to Wikipedia please summarize things in your own words, and tell us where you got the information from in the following format <ref>[The webpage, book or magazine you are citing, a description, the word "retrieved" and today's date]</ref>
  • If you find unreferenced information on Wikipedia that you consider dubious or unlikely, first try to reference it yourself. If you know it is wrong, correct it, if you can't find a source then {{fact}} adds the famous [citation needed]. If, after a week no-one has referenced the information, feel free to remove it.
  • ''Double single quotes'' gives you Italic and '''triple quotes''' Bold.

Many Wikipedians organise themselves by subject area, we have hundreds of WikiProjects ranging from Arts to Zoology, and I'm sure there will be ones that fit your interests. A good place to look for them is Category:WikiProjects by topic, alternatively the talkpages of articles you are interested in may have links to relevant Wikiprojects.

Please remember to sign your messages on talk pages by typing four tildes (~~~~); this adds your username and the date. If you need help, check out Wikipedia:Questions, visit The Teahouse, ask me on my talk page, or ask for help on your talk page, and a volunteer should respond shortly. Again, welcome!

First women magistrates[edit]

Hi, thank you for adding that information to Margaret Lloyd George. The Lady Londonderry referred to must be Edith Vane-Tempest-Stewart, Marchioness of Londonderry. We don't seem to have an article on Lady Crewe, but she would have been Mary Etienne Hannah Primrose, second wife of Robert Crewe-Milnes, 1st Marquess of Crewe and daughter of Archibald Primrose, 5th Earl of Rosebery. DuncanHill (talk) 23:29, 18 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for adding Lady Londonderry - she was on my list to follow up on as is doing something about Lady Crewe when I have a minute. Hoping there will be some useful media coverage with the 100th anniversary of the Sex Disqualification (Removal) Act 1919 on 23rd December to talk MumphingSquirrel (talk) 20:02, 21 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

No problem, If I see anything that might be helpful to you I'll pass it along. I knew Margaret Lloyd George was one of the first women JPs in Wales, but hadn't made the connexion to the Act. It's an important subject, good to see someone working on it. DuncanHill (talk) 20:27, 21 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Just found this about Lady Crewe, she was the first chair of the Central Committee on Women's Employment. DuncanHill (talk) 21:01, 21 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
There's also an ODNB article about her - link is here - if you have a British library card you can access it for free) or I could email you a pdf of it if you would like. To do that, you'd need to email me first (using the "Email this user" link on my user or talk page). DuncanHill (talk) 21:12, 21 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Happy New Year![edit]


Walter Elmer Schofield, Across the River (1904), Carnegie Museum of Art. 		Best wishes for a safe, healthy and prosperous 2021.
Thank you for your contributions toward making Wikipedia a better and more accurate place.
BoringHistoryGuy (talk) 14:53, 26 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Oneupsmanship: This painting turned the friendly rivalry between Edward Redfield and Elmer Schofield into
a feud. Schofield was a frequent houseguest at Redfield's farm, upstream from New Hope, Pennsylvania,
and the two would go out painting together, competing to capture the better view. Redfield served on the jury
for the 1904 Annual Exhibition of the Carnegie Institute; at which, despite Redfield's opposition, Across the
River was awarded the Gold Medal and $1,500 prize. It was not until a 1963 interview that the 93-year-old
Redfield revealed the painting as the cause of the 40-year feud between them. Schofield may have painted it
in England, but a blindsided Redfield knew that it was a view of the Delaware River, from his own front yard!

Category:Engineers[edit]

Hi there, I noticed you've added a few articles to Category:Engineers - this category isn't really for individual biographies, so generally best to add those to a more specific category. Thank you, -Kj cheetham (talk) 14:26, 31 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Anarchism[edit]

Hi MumphingSquirrel,

I saw your work on articles related to anarchism and wanted to say hello, as I work in the topic area too. If you haven't already, you might want to watch our noticeboard for Wikipedia's coverage of anarchism, which is a great place to ask questions, collaborate, discuss style/structure precedent, and stay informed about content related to anarchism. Take a look for yourself!

And if you're looking for other juicy places to edit, consider expanding a stub, adopting a cleanup category, or participating in one of our current formal discussions.

Feel free to say hi on my talk page and let me know if these links were helpful (or at least interesting). Hope to see you around. czar 13:32, 31 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Women in Red 8th Anniversary[edit]

Women in Red 8th Anniversary
In July 2015 around 15.5% of the English Wikipedia's biographies were about women. As of July 2023, 19.61% of the English Wikipedia's biographies are about women. That's a lot of biographies created in the effort to close the gender gap. Happy 8th Anniversary! Join us for some virtual cake and add comments or memories and please keep on editing to close the gap!

Elizabeth Butler, Duchess of Ormond[edit]

Dear MumphingSquirrel, thank you very much for your corrections and additions to the article Elizabeth Butler, Duchess of Ormond. I think I have a lot to learn from you. My English is 2nd language. I hope you do not mind if I try to discuss some of your interventions to better understand what I did wrong and why. Of course most of your corrections pass here unmentioned because they are obvious corrections and I understand why.

Line 21: you removed "(see Family tree)". I wondered whether one should never address the reader in such a fashion or whether this is only inappropriate in the lead. Is there something about this in the MOS or some other rule?

Line 95: you corrected "Her parents' lives" to "Elizabeth Preston's parents lives". I do understand that at the beginning of a paragraph I should not have used "Her", but should your correction not have been to "Elizabeth Preston's parents' lives" or even "Preston's parents' lives"? – In that same paragraph you corrected "King James&nbsp;I" to "King James I" and in the following paragraph "10&nbsp;October" to "10 October". Is it not good practice to use non-breaking spaces in such places? Please see MOS:NBSP. – You removed the line break after the comment "<!-- Referenced by the infobox issue-link -->". I thought the code was more readable before. What is the improvement resulting from your change? Is there something about this in the MOS or another rule? – Further down you inserted the comma in "As the only child, Elizabeth ...". People often insert commas before the subject but not always. Sometimes not even after a subordinate clause. It looks like an improvement in this case, but can you please give me a rule?

Line 120/119: You added a citation. Bravo! However, you used a citation style <ref>{{Cite journal}}</ref> (or what is this style called correctly?) whereas the article's citation style is "shortened footnotes" (see Help:Shortened footnotes) as prescribed in the header (line 4) by the template "Use shortened footnotes|date=April 2023" and by the section "Change of citation style" in the article's talk page.

With many thanks and best regards, Johannes Schade (talk) 10:27, 2 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
