Celebrating the Wikipedia and United Nations Women Project
Between 12 July and 12 August 2016, Women in Red is focusing on creating new articles and improving existing articles in support of m:Wikipedia and UN Women Project, which itself is being supported by the United Nations Empower Women program. Anyone can take part in this event. We hope both inexperienced and seasoned editors will join us in creating biographies and other articles regarding women, such as the works they created. The virtual edit-a-thon allows enthusiasts from around the globe to participate in the work. There are some suggested areas of focus, but you are free to create any articles within the scope of Women in Red and add them to the Outcomes list.
