== Developments in Asexual Awareness Week ==

I removed the reference to the first Ace Awareness Week at the University of California at Berkeley in 2019, since AAW activities have in fact been hosted at UC Berkeley [https://nextstepcake.tumblr.com/post/11647938984/qsaberkeley-asexual-awareness-week-is-coming since 2011]; you'll note that none o the originally cited sources reference it being the first either. The earlier events didn't generate as much press coverage, and [https://localwiki.org/davis/Asexual_Awareness_Week weren't particularly unique], so I'm not sure it makes sense to add them to the timeline, especially without better sourcing.

A better milestone to list might be when Asexual Awareness Week [https://nextstepcake.tumblr.com/post/11647938984/qsaberkeley-asexual-awareness-week-is-coming was renamed to "Ace Week" and merged with Asexual Outreach], although again I'm not sure if there's coverage of this event that would comply with wiki sourcing guidelines.

Revision as of 07:29, 28 August 2020

Hello, I am working to update the Timeline of asexual history page. I admit, I am a bit outside of my realm here (my typical area of expertise is radio stations), but I am trying to help. I am working with the fine folks over at AVEN who are giving me information that they think is notable and I am doing my best to source and add it. For the most part, I have sourced all of it. I have gotten a little backlash saying my entries, while good faith, had "Multiple MOS issues and non-notable individuals. WP:WTAF". I can't find any MOS issues and all the indiviuals are notable to the asexual history timeline in one way or another. Also, no redlinks are listed on the page or in the references.

Would you all give the page a once over and see if there is anything I missed, anything that needs changed. This is your realm of expertise and I am more than willing to work with you all here and I welcome any and all suggestions you all might have. I want this article to be inclusive, sourced, but up to Wikipedia standards as well. Thanks for your assistance. - NeutralhomerTalk • 02:20 on April 17, 2020 (UTC) • #StayAtHome

Developments in Asexual Awareness Week

I removed the reference to the first Ace Awareness Week at the University of California at Berkeley in 2019, since AAW activities have in fact been hosted at UC Berkeley since 2011; you'll note that none o the originally cited sources reference it being the first either. The earlier events didn't generate as much press coverage, and weren't particularly unique, so I'm not sure it makes sense to add them to the timeline, especially without better sourcing.

A better milestone to list might be when Asexual Awareness Week was renamed to "Ace Week" and merged with Asexual Outreach, although again I'm not sure if there's coverage of this event that would comply with wiki sourcing guidelines.
