To be expanded or improved

 * Tara Hernandez - Software developer, manager at Netscape during of the initial open source code release of Mozilla (see the documentary Code Rush). Wikipedia articles exist on other members of the Netscape team involved in this historic milestone in open source history, but Tara's page has been created and deleted at least once. I suspect implicit bias! Needs more details about Tara's life, more references etc.

Improving visibility
Writing more articles about women who have made significant contributions in STEM is important, but there needs to be a simultaneous push to improve their visibility within the core of Wikipedia. At time of writing, the 1000 Vital_articles contains no women out of the 10 articles allotted for Mathematics and Marie Curie is the only woman out of the 20 articles allotted for Inventors and Scientists. Seek to suggest and add women for vital article collections such as:
 * Vital_articles
 * Vital_articles/Expanded/People
 * MetaWiki list of articles every Wikipedia should have

Online resources

 * The American Chemical Society Meetup page has resources for improving biographies of chemists.
