    October is Black History Month in the UK. Take this opportunity of creating biographies of notable British women of colour.

    From July to December 2020, as a result of the rapid development of interest in Black Lives Matter (BLM) and anti-discrimination, we have decided to embark on an editathon over an extended period. It complements WikiProject Black Lives Matter's June, July, and August editathons. Now we are providing specific focus on women around the world, who have suffered discrimination or marginalization as a result of their ethnic, religious or cultural origins. In addition to African Americans, among others they include Aborigines, Arabs, Armenians, Berbers, Biharis, Blacks, Copts, Dalits, Hispanics, Hindus, Inuit, Jews, Kashmiris, Kurds, Maoris, Mestizos, Mongols, Muslims, Rohingyas, Romas, Samis, Sindhis, Somalis, ,Tamils ,Tibetans, Uyghurs and Yupiks. The redlists below cover some of these.

    Anyone can take part in this event. We hope both inexperienced and seasoned editors will join us in creating biographies and other articles about women from states around the world lacking general recognition, as well as their achievements, writings, organizations, and awards. This virtual editathon allows enthusiasts wherever they may be to participate in our initiative. Contributors are of course also welcome to add articles on any other notable women who deserve to be covered, 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 on a specific area
    • to support Wikipedia 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 (Facebook, Pinterest, Twitter)

    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 tweet about any of the articles, or upload any of the images to Pinterest, please indicate you have done so next to the article name.

    Redlists (lists of redlinked articles to be created)
