User:Yupik/Redlinks/Indigenous Women

This is a list of indigenous women who have either no article in the English Wikipedia or the article is not very extensive. Links to articles in other Wikipedias have been added for the most part. I have not divided the list up by category (artist, linguist, etc.) since most of these women are famous in more than one field. The list is by no means complete, so feel free to add to it.

Please note: for people from language communities that use avoidance language, this list does contain the names of dead people.

UPDATE: Thank you to everyone working on eradicating these red links! I appreciate your work more than words can say.
