| 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 only20.29% 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! |

Women in Red is running a series of events in 2026 to encourage new and existing Wikipedia editors to write articles about the works created by women, in addition to their biographies.
This virtual edit-a-thon allows enthusiasts from around the globe to participate in the work.
What else?
Themain goals of the event are:
As this is the first time we have an event specifically devoted to women's works rather than biographies and related articles, we have not yet developed crowd-sourced redlists in this connection. It is hoped these will evolve as the significance of works develops. Improvements could be added to ourRedlist index on Works. Nevertheless, lists of important works are often included the biographies of the women concerned.
Please also add below any relevant works which you consider notable enough for articles, if possible with reliable sources.
Plays written by women:
Compositions bynotable women composers can be found intheir biographies. In addition, we have a number of lists such as:
Other redlinks:
Key:
| This is a list of recognized content, updated weekly byJL-Bot (talk ·contribs) (typically on Saturdays). There is no need to edit the list yourself. If an article is missing from the list, make sure it istagged orcategorized (e.g.Category:WikiProject Women in Red meetup 361 articles) correctly and wait for the next update. SeeWP:RECOG for configuration options. |
