New navigation templates (figure 3) have also been created to pull all these women’s stories together so that when reading about one of Scotland’s suffragettes, it is also possible to navigate easily to other related stories, through hyperlinks grouped and organized in a box at the foot of the page. So that all these stories can be more easily discovered, navigation boxes were also created and added to each of the Edinburgh Seven’s pages, every page about an accused witch in Scotland and all nineteen of the extraordinary women chemists who petitioned the Chemical Society for Fellowship in 1904.
