Editors can also help by cleaning up existing articles. Helpful updates could be as simple as: making sure reference links are still appropriate and functional; adding new inline citations/references; adding a photo; adding an infobox; adding data to more fields in an existing infobox; creating headings; adding categories; etc.

Lists edit

Women Architects edit

The following lists of potential subjects have been crowdsourced. When writing your first entry please make sure that you can find at least three reliable sources for the article.
