    Welcome!

    From January to December 2026, Women in Red is embarking on our fourth collective "alphabet run", where editors work consecutively through the letters of the English alphabet. For this event we are running through countries.

    • January: A countries
    • February: B countries
    • March: C countries
    • April: D, E and F countries
    • May: G and H countries
    • June: I, J, K and L countries
    • July: M countries
    • August: N and O countries
    • September: P, Q and R countries
    • October: S countries
    • November: T countries
    • December: U, V, Y and Z countries

    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 Sports, 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
