DYK for Pharos (crater)
editOn 16 July 2024, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Pharos (crater), which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that Pharos, the largest impact crater on Neptune's moon Proteus, is more than half the diameter of Proteus itself? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Pharos (crater). You are welcome to check how many pageviews the nominated article or articles got while on the front page (here's how, Pharos (crater)), and the hook may be added to the statistics page after its run on the Main Page has completed. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page.

Women in Green's "Around the World in 31 Days" GA Editathon – October 2024
editHello FormalDude:
WikiProject Women in Green is holding a month-long Good Article Edit-a-thon event in October 2024!
Running from October 1 to 31, 2024, WikiProject Women in Green (WiG) is hosting a Good Article (GA) edit-a-thon event with the theme Around the World in 31 Days! All experience levels welcome. Never worked on a GA project before? We'll teach you how to get started. Or maybe you're an old hand at GAs – we'd love to have you involved! Participants are invited to work on nominating and/or reviewing GA submissions related to women and women's works (e.g., books, films) during the event period. We hope to collectively cover article subjects from at least 31 countries (or broader international articles) by month's end. GA resources and one-on-one support will be provided by experienced GA editors, and participants will have the opportunity to earn a special WiG barnstar for their efforts.
We hope to see you there!
