Wikipedia:WikiProject Women in Red/Meetup/341

From January to December 2025, Women in Red is embarking on our third collective "alphabet run", where editors work consecutively through the letters of the English alphabet. The July letters are M and N, and can be applied to any given name, middle name, or surname of a subject, e.g. Ngaio Marsh, or individuals named like Malala Yousafzai or Florence Nightingale would both be appropriate.

Recently completed:	Crime and law Alphabet run: Countries starting with M
New this month:	Indigenous women Alphabet run: Countries starting with N and O Women born before 1900
Ongoing initiatives:	#1day1woman: 2026 Sports
Upcoming events:	Ideas

Again this year we have lists of the most frequently redlisted women. Based on database searches, these are listed under the first name in the article title. As the searches take account of women's given names, you will discover quite a number that are inappropriate, for example, Nikita or Noel which are also used for men and geographical features. If you write a biography from these lists, please mention "most frequent" when you add it as a New or upgraded article.

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 you 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, under our year-long initiative Music, other topics of the month or our comprehensive #1day1woman event.

The main goals of the event are:

• to encourage inexperienced editors and show them how they can contribute to Wikipedia by creating biographies of prominent women
• to draw the attention of more experienced editors to the need for concerted action in combating the systemic bias against the coverage of women and women's works
• to promote the new and improved articles and images through social media

What else?

• Below, you'll see a section where you can list the articles you created 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 share any of the articles or images on social media, please indicate you have done so next to the article name.
