== '''5 Minds of Women Artists''' ==

Every once in a while we come across the work of an artist that, for has, is exceptional. Sometimes we like to share the enthusiasm we have with others, so I've decided to have a GROUP SHOW of five women artists shows on this gallery Bajaj Art Galley, 226,Bajaj Bhavan, Nariman Point, Mumbai-21, INDIA

'''This does not apply to the [[Portal:Current events|current events portal]], but it may apply to some of the other current events pages. For archiving the current events portal, see [[Portal:Current events/How to archive the portal]].'''

The purpose of the exhibits here is the same as anywhere else, that is, to simply show works produced by an artists. When available, we include the viewers and artists to shear there understandings of the current art happenings to have a well organized show in further. We are not representing anyone in an official capacity. We are only sharing works we hope others may enjoy as much as we do.

At the beginning of every month, it is customary to archive the [[Current events]] and [[Current sports events]] pages by moving them to a suitably named month (for example, [[June 2004]] or [[June 2004 in sports]]). This makes the original pages redirects, which can then be edited to record the new month's events. Moving the original pages ensures the [[Wikipedia:page history|page history]] is saved with the month, and provides a fresh history each month. It also keeps the log of older versions manageably small.

The show will be open from 13th march to 20th march in Bajaj Art Galley, 226,Bajaj Bhavan, Nariman Point, Mumbai-21, INDIA

Walk in for the new view of group show concisting of paintings and graphic prints, by women artists from Madhya Pradesh.

For example, to archive [[Current events]] or [[Current sports events]] on July 1 2004:

Info: Jagadish Dhyan Sreyas.

Mumbai,

# Move the current page to [[June 2004]] or [[June 2004 in sports]] as appropriate.

# Edit the moved page and copy its entire contents to the clipboard.

# Switch the order of the days from reverse chronological order, the style for [[Current events]], to forward chronological order, the standard for monthly archives. Be sure to repeat this process for any subsections such as the list of deaths.

# Edit [[Current events]] or [[Current sports events]] (which is now a redirect).

# Remove the redirect, and paste in the copied text. Remove the content for June 2004 - you just want the "template" for the month.

# Update the page to reflect the new month, in this case July. Typically this means updating the calendar, starting a new list of deaths, and adding June to the "Past events by month" section.

# Create a redirect from [[July 2004]] or [[July 2004 in sports]] to [[Current events]] or [[Current sports events]] as appropriate.

# Edit last month's article, [[June 2004]] or [[June 2004 in sports]], to reflect the fact that it's no longer current. This means replacing the time/date with a list of the months in the year, linking to the appropriate events/sports events articles in each case. Also, change category references to '''<nowiki>[[Category:</nowiki>2004|*2004-06]]''' or '''<nowiki>[[Category:</nowiki>2004 in sports|*2004-06]]''' as appropriate. (See the [[Wikipedia:Categorization#Category sorting|policy on category sorting]].)
