Having edited a Wikipedia page before, I was eager to try to create a page for Lynn Randolph after learning that she does not have one. I felt that the work she has done is worthy enough of having her own page where other people are able to search for her and learn more about what she has done in her field of work. In the video tutorial about editing Wikipedia, Dr. Adrianne Wadewitz goes step by step of how to edit a page. It was extremely helpful and I used her instructions as I created a wiki page for Lynn Randolph. I am still having trouble posting it so it comes up when you search for her. I got all my information that I have references to from Lynn Randolph's page when i searched for her.
After having trouble logging into an account I had previously made, I decided that I would just use my first and last name so that I am known as a female editor. I am curious to see if my page will be removed or how it might get edited. The last user name I made did not indicate what my sex I might be.
Thanks for posting both this and your edits to the Donna Haraway page. I am very impressed by how much information you aggregated about Randolph, and I hope that you eventually are able to post your final page. Perhaps you might find it helpful to use the headings/subheadings system on other Wikipedia biography pages.
