Wikipedia:WikiProject Women in Red/New York Times/Overlooked



About
Welcome New York Times readers! If you've read its "Overlooked" series on remarkable women omitted from the obituary pages of the Times over the last century and a half (published on International Women's Day 2018), here you can find their Wikipedia articles and a similar effort to fill in the gaps on Wikipedia.

This page is a joint effort of Wikimedia District of Columbia, a regional Wikipedia outreach group, and Women in Red, a worldwide project to turn "red links" (also known as missing Wikipedia articles) about women into "blue links" (or put another way, adding Wikipedia articles about women we ourselves have overlooked).

Only 19% of biographies on Wikipedia are about women! Why not read and edit one of the articles below? Or here's some help on how to create new biographical articles.
