This June, as in previous years, in collaboration with Wiki Loves Pride, Women in Red is focusing on LGBTQ+ women (including lesbian, gay, bisexual, trans, nonbinary and other queer or GNC people).

We hope both inexperienced and seasoned editors will join us in creating biographies and other articles about LGBTQ+ women, as well as their achievements, writings, organizations, and awards. This virtual editathon allows enthusiasts wherever they may be to participate in our initiative.

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 this 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 the Commons.
This essay on creating women's biographies and our Ten Simple Rules might be helpful to newer editors.

Thank you!

Draft:Chen Arieli despite numerous attempts to improve the article, it can’t get approved by administration. You address the issue(s) provided for it being declined, and another issue pops up when you submit it again. - Hi! I just revamped the Arieli article to comply with BLP standards, including significant additional research. If someone wants to put finishing touches on the article now, it should address most of the Wiki editor issues. Happy to discuss! Dblu9494 (talk) 20:24, 28 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
