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 19.97% 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! |

- Wikipedia:WikiProject Women in Red#Redlink lists list all of our Redlists
- Sample talk-page paragraph, for posting on Wikiprojects' talk pages
- [[File:Women in Red logo.svg|thumb|100px|[[Wikipedia:WikiProject Women in Red|WikiProject Women in Red]] wants your biographies]]
- I have taken the liberty of adding a link from this project's collaboration section (diff), to a redlist of [[redlist link]] for whom we have no biography article. Right now, there are five times as many biographies of men as there are of women on wikipedia - see the [http://whgi.wmflabs.org/gender-by-language.html Wikidata Human Gender Indicators] page. I hope this project will lend its support to addressing this imbalance by creating biographies for women within your project's scope. More generally, [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Women in Red|WikiProject Women in Red]] has very many redlists covering perhaps 100,000 notable women for whom we have no biography. thanks
