Wikipedia:WikiProject Women in Red/Meetup/275

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Welcome to WikiProject Women in Red (WiR)!
Our objective is to turn red links into blue ones . Our project's scope is women's representation on all language Wikipedias (biographies, women's works, women's issues, broadly construed). Did you know that, according to Humaniki, only 20.03% of the English Wikipedia's biographies are about women? Not impressed? Content gender gap is a form of systemic bias, and this is what WiR addresses. We invite you to participate, whenever you like, in whatever way suits you and your schedule. Editors of all genders are equally and warmly welcome at Women in Red!

Welcome!

From July 2023 to June 2024, Women in Red is embarking on their second collective "alphabet run", where editors work consecutively through the letters of the English alphabet. The first two letters are A and B, and can be applied to any first, middle or last name of a subject e.g. Anni Albers, or individuals named like Ella Graham Agnew or Betty Parsons would both be appropriate.

  • July 2023 - A & B
  • August 2023 - C & D
  • September 2023 - E & F
  • October 2023 - G & H
  • November 2023 - I & J
  • December 2023 - K & L
  • January 2024 - M & N
  • February 2024 - O & P
  • March 2024 - Q & R
  • April 2024 - S & T
  • May 2024 - U, V, W
  • June 2024 - X, Y & Z

For the rerun, from now on we will be providing lists of the most frequently redlisted women. Based on database searches, these are listed under the first name in the article title. As the searches take account of women's given names, you will discover there are quite a number which are inappropriate, for example those like Andrea or Auguste which are also used for men. If you decide to choose to write a biography for these lists, you might like to mention "most frequent" when you add it under New or upgraded articles.

We hope both inexperienced and seasoned editors will join us in creating biographies and other articles about notable women.

This virtual editathon allows enthusiasts wherever they may be to participate in our initiative. Contributors are of course also welcome to add articles on any other women who deserve to be covered, for example under the topics of the month or our comprehensive #1day1woman priority.

The main goals of the event are:

  • to encourage inexperienced editors and show them how they can contribute to Wikipedia by creating biographies of prominent women
  • to draw the attention of more experienced editors to the need for concerted action in combating the systemic bias against the coverage of women and women's works
  • to promote the new and improved articles and images through social media and via nominations to Main Page features "Did You Know?" and "In The News".

What else?

  • Below, you'll see a section where you can list the articles you create month by month, and another section where you can add the images you have uploaded to Commons.
  • This essay on creating women's biographies and our Ten Simple Rules might be helpful to newer editors.
  • If you share any of the articles or images on social media, or successfully nominate for Main Page, please indicate you have done so next to the article name.
Thank you!
