Women Electronic Literature Writers Sub Project
Women electronic literature writers is a sub-project started in 2022. We meet monthly on the Third Thursday at Three pm UTC, and anyone is welcome to join in. Women writers are underrepresented on Wikipedia, so this project focuses on addressing that gap. Editors of any gender are welcome in Women Electronic Literature Writers. We have been contributing to English, Spanish, and French Wikipedias and we would love to build the capacity for writing, editing and improving articles in these and other languages. We partner with and mutually support mission-aligned projects like Women in Red (WIR) and Women Do News and we gratefully acknowledge our fellow Wikipedians who have supported our work since its beginning. We:
- Write new Wikipedia biographies of electronic literature academics, writers, and critics.
- Edit existing Wikipedia biographies and works to improve their quality
- Identify notable and influential writers and works who should be on Wikipedia
- Facilitate edit-a-thons and workshops to research women in journalism, edit their Wikipedia biographies and teach others how to become Wikipedia editors.
See the List of [electronic literature writers].
