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 19.994% 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!

In August 2019 Women in Red is once again focusing on women in film and stage. Anyone can take part in this event. We hope both inexperienced and seasoned editors will join us in creating biographies and other articles about women in all fields of interest in various countries, as well as their achievements, writings, organizations, and awards. This virtual editathon allows enthusiasts from around the globe to participate in our initiative. You are of course also welcome to add articles on any other notable women who deserve to be covered, for example under our #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 some of the world's most prominent women
- to draw the attention of more experienced editors to the need for concerted action on a specific area
- to support Wikipedia in combating the systemic bias against the coverage of women and women's works
- to promote the new/improved articles and images through social media (Facebook, Pinterest, Twitter)
What else?
- Below, you'll see a section where you can list the articles you create this 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 tweet about any of the articles, or upload any of the images to Pinterest, please indicate you have done so next to the article name.
Thank you!
Redlists (lists of redlinked articles to be created)
[edit]We have red-link lists on women from relevant fields and countries, which can be found in the WiR Redlink index. A selection of those which might be most useful for this priority is listed below.
These red-link lists are either drawn automatically from Wikidata (WD) or are crowd-sourced (CS).
By women See also the Redlist index for lists of actresses by country. This book might have some gems: Chinoy, Helen Krich; Jenkins, Linda Walsh (2006). Women in American Theatre. Theatre Communications Group. pp. 1–. ISBN 978-1-55936-263-4. |
Add other red links here, if possible with a source:
- Comment Not a redlink as such, but a heads up on one: I have nearly finished an article about the Australian choreographer and movement/dance-drama teacher Margaret Barr. I was thinking I might have it finished to add to this month's theme Education, but Film+Stage is more likely. RebeccaGreen (talk) 10:00, 29 July 2019 (UTC)
- Comment I've just noticed this list hosted by Columbia University Libraries of Women Pioneers in the Film industry. Might be a good resource, happy editing! Fred (talk) 01:16, 18 August 2019 (UTC)
