Wiki Women in Red - a proposed User Group

Having worked for 2 years editing articles for Women In Red, a group of organizers have concluded that sourcing is one of the biggest hurdles in creating articles on women and non-binary genders. Though it is true that a lot of sourcing simply doesn’t exist, it is also true that there are sources, but we have no access to them. As these groups did not typically become subjects for academic study until the 1970s, many of the sources are not on line or are behind paywalls. Failure to include women and non-binary people in the encyclopedia presents a one-dimensional view of society and history. To address those issues, we are forming a new User Group aimed at referencing and support for like-minded groups and would appreciate your input or input from your supporters in our organizational process.

Help with updating article

I proposed a few updates to the article about neurologist Leslie B. Vosshall here: Talk:Leslie B. Vosshall#Proposals October 2022. I have a conflict of interest as a paid consultant but believe these changes are obvious improvements to address sourcing issues pointed out in a maintenance tag. A review by a project member would be very much appreciated. Thanks.W12SW77 (talk) 21:38, 12 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

As a result of comments stating that the list was not representative of the involvement of women in neuroscience on the talk page of WP:Women in Red, over the past few days I have undertaken a comprehensive update of this list. I am not too sure who are the experts in this area but I note that many of the individual biographies could benefit from updates too. It might also be useful to consider whether any of the women in Category:Women neurologists and Category:Women neurosurgeons could usefully be added to the list. There are of course considerable opportunities for expansion, for example on the basis of Wikipedia:WikiProject Women in Red/Missing articles by occupation/Neuroscientists. There are also a few red-linked entries on the list which would appear to deserve articles.--Ipigott (talk) 15:06, 31 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
