From July 2023 to June 2024, Women in Red is embarking on their second collective "alphabet run", where editors work consecutively through the letters of the English alphabet. The October 2023 letters are G and H, and can be applied to any first, middle or last name of a subject e.g. Gwen Harwood, or individuals named like Julia Gillard or Helen Clark would both be appropriate.
For the rerun, from now on we are providing lists of the most frequently redlisted women. Based on database searches, these are listed under the first name in the article title. While the searches take account of women's given names, you will discover there are quite a number which are inappropriate, such as Gabriele Benedetti and Hope Mountains. If you decide to choose to write a biography for these lists, you might like to mention "most frequent" when you add it under New or upgraded articles.
We hope both inexperienced and seasoned editors will join us in creating biographies and other articles about notable women.
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 women who deserve to be covered, for example under the topics of the month or our comprehensive #1day1woman priority.
The main goals of the event are:
