Lately I've been mostly spending my time planning events in the San Francisco region: our Maker Faire booth was this past weekend, and we're having an edit-a-thon on Sat 25 (you should come if you're in the area!) And I'm giving a talk to a big group of librarians on Wednesday. Editing-wise I've mainly been doing routine cleanup (and work on Wikidata!)... I've been slowly working on longtime projects to reference biographies of National Medal of Science winners and biographies of scientists that are listed in the Dictionary of Scientific Biography, focusing on the women. And I recently went on an article rating kick for the engineering wikiproject (which needs some love!). One neat thing: I recently stumbled across and did a little work on the article about the amazing Dorothy Garrod: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dorothy_Garrod I love it when I come across a biography of someone that I knew nothing about before and am just totally blown away by their work and career. cheers, -- phoebe -- * I use this address for lists; send personal messages to phoebe.ayers <at> gmail.com *
