About me

This is the user page for LPascal. I am a social historian, writer and researcher and I love art, literature and people's history. I'm interested in the history of ideas and social movements. I volunteer in the National Gallery of Australia (NGA) Research library and Archives, archiving manuscript collections and writing finding aids.

I assist with the Know My Name (KMN) project, an initiative of the National Gallery of Australia to celebrate the significant contributions of Australian women artists, and the Australian Women in Religion project. I aim to improve and increase the articles in Wikipedia about Australian women artists and Australian women in religion.

I was appointed as Wikimedian-in-Residence at the University of Divinity for the AWR project, from May to August 2023. I declare a conflict of interest in that I volunteer in the National Gallery of Australia Research Library and Archives and have updated its article. I also write biographical articles for the Australian Dictionary of Biography's People Australia.

Kept women on Wikipedia

Sometimes another editor marks a bio of an Australian woman for deletion because they don't think she is notable. Other editors can vote to keep the bio or delete it and the consensus wins. There is also the option to revise the article to show her notability. I have helped save and keep these Australian women on Wikipedia.
