}}

This December, with an extension into January, we are focusing on the notable women who died in 2019, whatever their country or occupation. Many of them will have been covered in detail in the obituaries published in newspapers and journals around the world.

Anyone can take part in this event. We hope both inexperienced and seasoned editors will join us in creating biographies about notable women who have recently passed away, including their writings or other works. 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)=

  • Wikidata list of women who died in 2019 (with thanks to {{u|Mike Peel}}, {{u|StrayBolt}}, {{u|Rosiestep}} and {{u|Tagishsimon}} for creating and improving it)
  • A wide variety of redlink lists can be found on our Redlist index. For any country or occupation, you can look for those who died in 2019.
