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 19.92% 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!

This May, Women in Red's geofocus is once again centered on women from the countries of Central and Eastern Europe. This event is part of the Wikimedia CEE Spring 2020. It includes an additional contest for CEE Women.
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 from the area, as well as their achievements, writings, organizations, and awards. 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 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]A wide variety of redlink lists can be found on our Redlist index. Some of those relating to Central and Eastern Europe are listed below:
Add other red links here, if possible with a source:
- Zhānit D. Lazāryān (1940-2014), Iranian-Armenian writer and author of Encyclopedia of Iranian Armenians (in Armenian). 2012. ISBN 978-9939-60-154-0. OCLC 847248788. (which itself probably has redlinks)
- Tatyana Parkina (April 13, 1952 - May 6, 2020), Russian actress (I Cannot Say "Farewell", Applause, Applause..., The Dolphin's Cry).(Актриса Татьяна Паркина скончалась в возрасте 68 лет (in Russian))
