Wikipedia:WikiProject Women in Red/About us

Imagine a world in which every single person is given free access to the sum of all knowledge related to women. That's what we're doing.

We invite you to take part whenever and however you wish. There is no requirement to participate in everything we do, or even to sign up. If the objective and scope of our project interest you, please join in the discussion on our talkpage or jump in and create articles. You might like to start by participating in March's online editathons in connection with March's Women's History Month either in English or the language of your choice. We also have a Role Models editathon focusing on the alumnae and teaching staff of women's colleges around the world. We welcome you.

Scope

women's biographies (real women, fictional women)
women's works (broadly construed, such as their paintings, books, schools, conferences)
women's issues (such as health, activism, and so on).

Functions

On-wiki:

theme-focused, online editathons where we create new articles
collaborations with WikiProjects, "challenges", competitions, wiki events (Women's History Month in March; Asia Month in November)
collaborations between language communities, and/or other wiki properties, e.g. Wikidata and Commons
development of lists of redlinks organized by topic and/or country
metrics: statistical measurement of progress
editor outreach: invitations, thank yous, barnstars, mentoring
environment: creation and maintenance of a safe space to discuss what we do

Off-wiki:

collaborations with institutions
presentations at meetings and conferences
socialization: we talk about our work with the press, in podcasts and blogposts, and via social media
