This is a new version of the "missing women" list, which was worked over almost to completion in 2015. Its scope is the whole ODNB, including in principle the ongoing updates; and the idea is to use Wikidata to do the heavy lifting, to generate topical lists.

To begin with, User:Edgars2007/ODNB covers all ODNB women (females with OBIN identifier, to be more precise). It is Listeria-generated, so will refresh itself. There are currently (June 2016) over 2100 entries.

Female ODNB ids, no link to enWP, no occupation is a query to generate a list of those not having an occupation entered in Wikidata (in the "occupation" field, that is, rather than the English description). As of 21 June 2016 it has 1872 hits: or in other words there are only about 300 occupations entered in the list above.
