Just a little about me

I edited like a mad thing for the start of last year - the whole first half of the year before the pandemic and working from home and all got the better of me. It's time to reboot and start again for 2021. I am still adding to my to do list faster than I can create articles.
My goal is to make it so that when you look for people who do X you get a fair number of women in the list and not just men. This means improving the number of women who have articles on Wikipedia.
I have a particular interest in Irish women and have focused on revolutionaries, pioneers and writers but I will take on any woman I find interesting or notable.
If you are interested in joining me, I work with Women in Red but I also have a bunch of links to how to guides on how to edit and pages of who to edit.
If you are new to Wikipedia I will help if I can, just ask,

On 13 May 2016, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Mabel McConnell Fitzgerald, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that after serving as a temporary secretary to George Bernard Shaw, Mabel McConnell Fitzgerald tried to convert him to Irish separatism? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Mabel McConnell Fitzgerald. You are welcome to check how many page hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, Mabel McConnell Fitzgerald), and it may be added to the statistics page if the total is over 5,000. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page.

The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Gertrude Kelly.
