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! |

Women in Red invites participants to create or expand articles about Women in Science Fiction and Fantasy, in support of the 82nd World Science Fiction Convention (Worldcon), to be held in Glasgow in August 2024.
We hope both inexperienced and seasoned editors will join us in creating biographies of some of the many notable women, who are still red-linked on the English Wikipedia. Other articles related to women and writing, such as the works they have created, their organizations and their awards, are also encouraged.
The main goals of the event are:
