| 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, only20.23% 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 May 2018, Women in Red is focusing on women inCentral and Eastern Europe in support ofCEE Spring. As the CEE Spring contest runs 21 March – 31 May, please feel free to add in the Outcomes section any CEE women articles created during this period. Anyone can take part in this event. We hope both inexperienced and seasoned editors will join us in creating biographies and other articles about women in all fields of interest in these countries, as well as their achievements, writings, organizations, and awards. This virtual editathon allows enthusiasts from around the globe to participate in our initiative. See below for lists of red-linked women in various CEE countries. You are of course also welcome to add articles on any other notable women who deserve to be covered.
The main goals of the event are:
What else?
The Wikimedia Meta page,m:Wikimedia CEE Spring 2018/Article Lists, presents article lists for the countries and language communities of Central and Eastern Europe based on Wikidata. By clicking on each country, you can find a listing which includes prominent "Women". The names in black rather than blue are women who do not yet have biographies on the English Wikipedia. Basic Wikidata information and access to articles in other languages on these women can be found by clicking on the Q item in the Wikidata column.
In addition we have Wikidata red link lists on women from all the countries mentioned which can be found in theWomen in Red navbox. A selection of these is listed below.
