User talk:Maddy from Celeste

Sometimes I go on a wikibreak, and a variety of templates have been seen here to that effect. However, I usually only care to add a template when I am already on my way back from a break. Therefore, if you are in doubt whether I am currently active, check my contributions. Even if I don't edit, I remain logged in when reading, and will thus see (and try to respond to) any messages left here.

If I left you a message: please answer on your talk page, as I am watching it. If I have been active and have not yet responded, you may post a new message linking to me ({{Ping|Maddy from Celeste}}), so that I will be notified.
If you leave me a message: I will answer on my talk page, so please add it to you watchlist. If I notice that you have been active but have not responded, I may post a new message linking to your username, so you will be notified.
Please click here to leave me a new message.

Arbitration

After a motion, arbitration enforcement page protections no longer need to be logged in the AELOG. A bot now automatically posts protections at WP:AELOG/P. To facilitate this bot, protection summaries must include a link to the relevant CT page (e.g. [[WP:CT/BLP]]), and you will receive talk page reminders if you forget to specify the contentious topic but otherwise indicate it is an AE action.

Hope you're still around

I know you tend to edit sporadically, so you're probably just busy with "real life" right now...but I'd like to let you know that I miss seeing you around here and hope you come back soon. In the meantime, I wish you all the best for your current adventures. Toadspike [Talk] 10:19, 22 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Women in Red - November 2025

Women in Red | November 2025, Vol 11, Issue 11, Nos. 326, 327, 353, 354

Recognized as the most active topic-based WikiProject by human changes.

Online events:

New: Alphabet run: U, V, W | Asian women
Continuing, year-long initiatives: #1day1woman | Music

Announcements:

Women in Red's Asian women event is part of the global Wikipedia Asian Month 2025 campaign.
You are welcome to add your contributions to both event pages.

Tip of the Month:

Verifiability is increasingly important as AI evolves. You should ensure that every statement made
is adequately sourced. There should be no less than three independent reliable sources for each
biography, including at least one source for each paragraph.

Progress ("moving the needle"):

Statistics available via various tools: previously, Humaniki tool; currently, QLever. Thank you if
you contributed one or more of the 20,473 articles created in the past year.

21 Oct 2024, 19.963% of biographies on EN-WP were about women (2,030,245 biographies; 405,305 women)
28 Oct 2025: 20.23% of biographies on EN-WP were about women (2,094,677 biographies; 423,778 women)
