From July 2022 to June 2023, Women in Red is embarking on their first collective "alphabet run", where editors work consecutively through the letters of the English alphabet. The August 2022 letters areC andD, and can be applied to any first, middle or last name of a subject e.g.Dorothy Carroll, or individuals named likeCamila Fabbri orAndrea Drummer would both be appropriate.

We hope both inexperienced and seasoned editors will join us in creating biographies and other articles about notable women.

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 women who deserve to be covered, for example under the topics of the month or our comprehensive #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 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 and improved articles and images through social media and via nominations toMain Page features "Did You Know?" and "In The News".

What else?

• Below, you'll see a section where you can list the articles you create month by 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 share any of the articles or images on social media, or successfully nominate for Main Page, please indicate you have done so next to the article name.

A wide variety of redlink lists can be found on ourRedlist index. Any of these lists can be used to find subjects who may have a first, middle or last name, beginning with C or D. Editors canclick the column header to rearrange names into alphabetical order.

Please add the biographical dictionary, if used:
