Wikipedia:WikiProject New Zealand/Requested articles/New Zealand academic biographies

'''This page was used May - Sept 2014 in a push to increase the breadth and depth of Category:New Zealand academics. '''

The coverage of New Zealand academics on wikipedia hasn't been very good, and most of the academics who are present are either dead white men or modern controversal figures. This leaves the bulk of excellent academics overlooked. The plan is to (a) draw up a list of people who are likely to be notable, (b) compile sources for them and (c) write the articles. (a) and (b) have largely been done, resulting in the list below (if you have more suggestions, feel free to add them to the list).

How to participate

 * 1) Login or create an account. You can edit New Zealand academics articles' without an account, but not create new ones.
 * 2) Pick a redlink from the list of academics below. On wikipedia redlinks point to an articles that don't exist yet.  Some of the list was seeded from sources are are dead-white-men-heavy, so if you're interested in diversity issues, pick someone from higher in the list.
 * 3) Open the red link and each of the URLs that follow it (ideally keep them open in seperate tabs)
 * 4) In the edit window that the red link took you to, write a capsule summary of what the sources say about the person. Include the sources listed. Do not cut and paste from any of the sources.
 * 5) Don't worry overly about spelling, grammar or styling; what is important is the capsule summary and the secondary sources that support it.
 * 6) Optionally: look for more sources using the Places to look for sources below, or using your favourite search engine
 * 7) Optionally: use wiki formatting to standardise the biography, see Help:Wiki_markup for all the gory details or find a page with the formatting you want and hit 'edit' to see how it's done.
 * 8) Optionally: if you have access to an Creative Commons licensed image of the subject, upload it
 * 9) Optionally: if you know the names of other academics who are likely to be WP:notable, add them to the list below, along with links for use as sources.
