Talk:Fernanda G. Weiden

Notability, deletion
Added to AfD. The person is invited to many free software events over and over again due to the gender gap and not due to outstanding skills or notable actions. A male system administrator having the same level of skill would not have a Wikipedia page and would not be invited to speak so frequently at events. As a system administrator, the person is a user but not a developer of free software.TransparencyDude (talk) 15:20, 21 December 2021 (UTC)

Improving the page
The sentence "She is an example of cyberfeminism, along with developers such as Alice Wu and Yuwei Lin" seems a bit dubious to me but i can't check the citation, I wonder if someone else can. Mujinga (talk) 15:16, 22 December 2021 (UTC)

This was the former lead in case anyone wants to follow up some of the claims: Fernanda "nanda" Giroleti Weiden is a system administrator and a former council member of Free Software Foundation Latin America (FSFLA), and she was a participant in Debian Women. She is an organizer of the Fórum Internacional Software Livre (FISL) and one of the founders of Projeto Software Livre Mulheres (Women in Free Software Project) in Brazil. She was elected the vice president of Free Software Foundation Europe (FSFE) in June 2009. Mujinga (talk) 16:16, 22 December 2021 (UTC)
