- Abstract (<=750 characters)
- At Wikimania 2015, Roger Bamkin and Rosie Stephenson-Goodknight, founders of Women in Red (WiR), spoke about Wikipedia’s content gender gap. They also announced a new wikiproject formed by editors of all genders and incorporating the emerging power of Wikidata. Since its establishment, 165K new women’s biographies have been created on En:Wikipedia. WiR communities expanded into 31 additional language Wikipedias, some of whom reached parity through the use of bots. Collaborating with other wikiprojects such as Women Scientists has led to mutual gains. Our membership (800+ editors) grows in part because the WiR talkpage is a harassment-free zone. In this session, Roger and Rosie will discuss WiR’s past, present, and future strategies.
