Hi everyone,
I recently created a scoop.it for Women and Wikimedia. http://www.scoop.it/t/women-and-wikimedia
Feel free to email me directly if I'm missing something or if you're own language has content worth sharing through it. :)
Also, this weeks Signpost is featuring Women and Wikipedia as its headline: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Wikipedia_Signpost/2011-08-15/Women_and_Wikipedia
I'm serving as the Wikipedian in Residence at the Archives of American Art this summer, and I've been doing a lot of writing about female artists. I recently edited an article about the Woman's Building, a feminist art school and collective that was a catalyst for the feminist art scene in the 1970s-80s. While writing the article, I started to create a list of women who participated in the Building. I realized the majority were not on Wikipedia, and a large portion of them are notable (in the art/music/literary scenes). So, I created this list on my userspace:

So for all those folks who believe there is little content to be contributed to Wikipedia, I ask you to take a look at these red links. :D And perhaps contribute an article!
Go team!
