Women in Red

edit

Hi there, Efc7, and thanks for adding the WiR template to your user page. I now realize that in fact you registered with the project back in September 2022 but for some reason I failed to notice. I would therefore like to welcome you as a member of the project. I see you have already created The easy life in Kamusari and I look forward to many more articles about women and their works. If you would like to create a biography, you might find it useful to look at our Primer. You can show others your interest in the project, by signing up under "New registrations" on Wikipedia:WikiProject Women in Red/New members. Please let me know if you run into any difficulties or need assistance. Happy editing!--Ipigott (talk) 06:21, 5 October 2023 (UTC)Reply

Thanks so much! Efc7 (talk) 21:12, 6 October 2023 (UTC)Reply

Tip of the month:

  • When creating biographies, don't forget to use Template:DEFAULTSORT.
    Accessible from "Wiki markup" at the foot of the page being edited,
    it allows categories to be listed under the subject's family name rather than their first or given name.

Moving the needle: (statistics available via Humaniki tool)

  • 24 Mar 2025: 20.070% of biographies on EN-WP are about women (2,057,083, 412,857 women)
  • 27 Jan 2025: 20.031% (2,047,793 bios, 410,200 women)
