Women's football
Hi. Th standard convention for soccer categories is Football (soccer). I have deleted the one category and recreated at Category:Women's football (soccer). I will make the requested edit changes now with this category. --LauraHale (talk) 09:24, 20 November 2013 (UTC)
 * Thanks Laura. The naming convention is different on Wikipedia apparently. Thanks for your assistance. Hmlarson (talk) 18:15, 20 November 2013 (UTC)

Abby Wambach wins record sixth U.S. Soccer Athlete of the Year award
Hi. The article needs a bit of work to get it ready for publication; see my review comments. --Pi zero (talk) 07:05, 28 November 2013 (UTC)


 * Unfortunately, the article didn't manage to garner a second review in time. If there's a fresh development, of course, it could be refreshed.
 * It's not uncommon for a first aritcle to miss publication; hopefully, though, it's a learning experience that will help things go more smoothly with your next article.
 * My review comments are here. --Pi zero (talk) 03:52, 1 December 2013 (UTC)
 * If you have time, would you mind providing feedback on my revisions to the article? This would help for future reference. Many thanks. Hmlarson (talk) 20:02, 1 December 2013 (UTC)
 * I can see how it could be really useful (if the review comments come out well), and honestly I'll try. Sad to say, I've tried and failed with similar requests in the past; reviewers here tend to be chronically short on time to donate to the project.  But I'll give it my best shot.  --Pi zero (talk) 20:34, 1 December 2013 (UTC)

Women's history
How do you see this category playing out? I see you've got the DPL set for Women and Women's rights, which ought (however) to give you the intersection of those categories rather than their union. On the other hand, "Women's history" sounds tbh like an encylopedic category rather than a news category. A practical consideration is that when we add a category at Wikinews, we want to choose something that we can be confident of remembering to add articles to as we publish them. The primary way this happens is that there is some keyword that we will reliably link when it occurs in the article, which will then (through our project infrastructure) recommend to us that we should consider adding the article to the associated category. I can't think of any keyword that would naturally link to "Category:Women's history". I'm open to thoughts and suggestions, though. --Pi zero (talk) 22:38, 25 July 2017 (UTC)
 * Feel free to delete Women's history category. Hmlarson (talk) 22:40, 25 July 2017 (UTC)
 * Is there something we can provide that would be helpful to you? If you can describe what you've had in mind, perhaps we can work something out; there ought to be a way to meet our Wikinews constraints and serve our sister project's interests at the same time.  --Pi zero (talk) 22:53, 25 July 2017 (UTC)
 * No, but thanks for asking. Hmlarson (talk) 04:29, 26 July 2017 (UTC)
