Looking at a page

There is no wikimedia ireland in the chapters list. Should there be? could there be? ☕ Antiqueight haver 21:35, 6 November 2016 (UTC)

We are listed under User Groups, there has been a moratorium on Chapters for the last few years, otherwise we would have applied! Smirkybec (talk) 23:25, 6 November 2016 (UTC)
Gotcha. Cool. I was just poking around and wondered why....I'll go back and look further. ☕ Antiqueight haver 01:04, 7 November 2016 (UTC)

Second Question

Can you see if there is more biography about Louise Frances Field aka Mrs E.M. Field?

I'll take a look now! Smirkybec (talk) 23:26, 6 November 2016 (UTC)
No sign of her in the DIB or the ODNB :( Smirkybec (talk) 23:31, 6 November 2016 (UTC)
Bummer. She wrote enough and gets the occasional mention in a book and the dates are mentioned - but I can't find her in Irish genealogy or census so I don't know if she really is Irish or not or anything about her. Thanks for looking - I didn't hold much hope but it was worth a shot... ☕ Antiqueight haver 01:04, 7 November 2016 (UTC)
OMG I'm a moron - I just searched again and found a whole bunch of pages I hadn't seen before. Right - I'll finish her up in the morning! ☕ Antiqueight haver 01:06, 7 November 2016 (UTC)
