Welcome toWikiProject Women in Red (WiR)!
Our objective is to turnred links intoblue 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 toHumaniki, only20.13% of the English Wikipedia's biographies are about women? Not impressed?Content gender gap is a form ofsystemic 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!

In February 2022 Women in Red's focus returns to women in sport for a two-month event. While television may be focusing on the Olympic and Paralympic Games, i.e. the2022 Winter Olympics (4–20 February) and the2022 Winter Paralympics (4–13 March), we also want to work more generally on women in sports, not just the competitors, players, teams and clubs but the many notable female support staff, coaches, referees, managers and sponsors. The lists of redlinks below provide an indication of the wide scope we intend to cover.

We hope both inexperienced and seasoned editors will join us in creating biographies and other articles about women associated with the Games and as well as those notable for their contributions to sports, both today and yesterday. This virtual editathon allows enthusiasts wherever they may be to participate. Contributors are also welcome to add articles on any other notable women, for example under our#1day1woman priority.

Themain 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 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

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 ourTen Simple Rules might be helpful to newer editors.
• If you post about any of the articles on social media, please indicate you have done so next to the article name.

A wide variety of redlink lists can be found on ourRedlist index. Some of those relating to sportswomen are listed below:
