 Welcome!

This month, we're focused on women in finance, economics and banking, inspired by Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala who earlier this year became the first woman to head the World Trade Organization.

We hope both inexperienced and seasoned editors will join us in creating biographies and other articles about women in or associated with finance, economics and banking, as well as their achievements, writings, organizations, and awards. This virtual editathon allows enthusiasts wherever they may be to participate. Contributors are also welcome to add articles on any other notable women, for example under our #1day1woman priority.

The main goals of the event are:
 * to encourage inexperienced editors and show them how they can contribute to Wikipedia by creating biographies of some of the world's most prominent women
 * to draw the attention of more experienced editors to the need for concerted action in combating the systemic bias against the coverage of women and women's works
 * to promote the new/improved articles and images through social media

What else?
 * Below, you'll see a section where you can list the articles you create this month, and another section where you can add the images you have uploaded to Commons.
 * This essay on creating women's biographies and our Ten Simple Rules might be helpful to newer editors.
 * If you post about any of the articles on social media, please indicate you have done so next to the article name.

 Thank you!
