Task force

[edit]

Welcome to the project! Since our focus is on Women's History, you might think about whether we need to set a "prior to" date as part of the focus on your Women in Technology task force. - PKM (talk) 04:08, 13 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

  • Hi Tjepsen, I like the idea of this taskforce. I think the most recent biography I wrote would fit here. JoAnn H. Morgan was an aerospace engineer who was the first woman engineer at Kennedy Space Center. She was involved with designing the rocket launch computer systems for the initial NASA manned flight programs. In published works she talks about her experience being the only female working at Kennedy. She is the type of person who I want us to be sure to include in Wikipedia because she changed the world (at least a little bit) by pushing through the barriers that kept women out of this type of work. So although she is still living I think that we should include her (and women in similar situations) if we can show that they were trailblazers. FloNight♥♥♥♥ 13:36, 13 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
As far as including living women, we should do that if we focus on the most significant contributions of women in technology from a historical perspective. - PKM (talk) 20:58, 13 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Women in technology

[edit]

Your proposal is interesting. But does the scope only apply to modern technology? Or should it include the technology of previous eras? For example, would you include Mary Andersonn, inventor of the windshield wiper or Tabitha Babbitt, inventor of circular saws for saw mills? Dimadick (talk) 14:34, 13 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I do think the history of women in technology includes at least some women inventors. I've added some names to the project page, most of them women with engineering degrees/jobs; but some who held patents and designed machinery or processes, and might well have been considered engineers if they lived in another time. I also added a couple women who were pioneers in electronic music. (I haven't added any living women, just to keep it firmly historical for now.) Penny Richards (talk) 20:28, 13 February 2011 (UTC)Penny Richards[reply]

Thanks for the comments - I absolutely intend to include technology of previous eras - e.g. women in technology in the Renaissance, Enlightenment, early industrial age, later industrial age, early 20th century, Internet age. Inventors of course should be included. Some pages I am currently working on include Mathilde Fibiger, Danish feminist, novelist, and telegrapher, and Ola Delight Smith, American telegrapher, labor organizer, and telegrapher. Question: should we include living persons? Comments welcome. Regards. Tjepsen Tjepsen (talk) 20:58, 13 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

To be honest, I don't pay much attention to whether these women still live or not. In many cases the highlights of their respective careers were over thirty years ago and details on them are still historical. I just try to avoid too much "recentism" when I tag articles. Dimadick (talk) 10:00, 14 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I think there will be cases where an entry will be in scope in both the Women's History Project and the Women in technology category, and cases where the person's achievements have not yet become "historical" in nature. However, I have no problem with tagging a person with a solid contribution in technology as a member of the Women in technology category, even if they don't fit the requirements of the Women's History Project.Tjepsen (talk) 21:59, 8 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

License tagging for File:Fibiger.gif

[edit]

Thanks for uploading File:Fibiger.gif. You don't seem to have indicated the license status of the image. Wikipedia uses a set of image copyright tags to indicate this information; to add a tag to the image, select the appropriate tag from this list, click on this link, then click "Edit this page" and add the tag to the image's description. If there doesn't seem to be a suitable tag, the image is probably not appropriate for use on Wikipedia.

For help in choosing the correct tag, or for any other questions, leave a message on Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. Thank you for your cooperation. --ImageTaggingBot (talk) 22:05, 13 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Renaming task force

[edit]

I renamed the Women In Technology taskforce to Women in technology. It's Wikipedia's convention to use lower case for all words after the first word in article titles, except for proper names. It's no biggie; the renaming creates a redirect, so no one will get lost looking for the taskforce. - PKM (talk) 02:49, 15 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Categorization

[edit]

Hi Tjepsen. I just noticed you'd started a new category and was wondering if you'd seen the category discussion over on the WikiProject's page. We're considering creating categories according to country and I've proposed breaking those categories down further into nationality, then occupation. Hopefully the categorization will help to narrow this taskforce's scope. Please do let us know what you think. mheart (talk) 17:45, 18 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

WikiProject Women's History needs members' input on implementing auto-assessment. You'll find the discussion at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Women's History#Auto-assessment. Best wishes, Voceditenore (talk) 10:55, 5 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

It's a good article. Keep it up in the article creation, we always need good contributers in the history field (it's sad what some of the history core topic pages look like, maybe you will want to take a shot at some of those)!Sadads (talk) 12:59, 26 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Members' input needed at WikiProject Women's History

[edit]

Hello. I'm writing to you as your name is listed on the members page for WikiProject Women's History. In recent discussions at the project, most notably here, several members have indicated that the scope of the project may need to be more clearly defined and communicated. I have set up a workshop page for this, but it obviously needs as wide a participation as possible to achieve genuine consensus and to allow the project to move forward. You'll find the workshop here.

If you no longer consider yourself an active member of the project, it would help if you could indicate this on the members' page. This will allow us to better gauge how much people-power we actually have. Best wishes, Voceditenore (talk) 18:36, 24 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]
