I noticed that
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_female_role_models
is presently empty without a deletion log. How is
that possible? How
can we have
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_transgender_characters_in_film_and_tel…
but not [[List of female role models]]?
Note that there isn't a [[List of male role models]] either, nor a [[List of
role models]]. But it seems a worthwhile article.
If you do create the article, make sure to cite a source for each entry, and
to have several sources in the article, before you first click "Save".
Here are some sources you could use:
http://blogs.telegraph.co.uk/finance/richardtyler/3912041/Enterprising_wome…
http://www.telegraph.co.uk/lifestyle/8102909/Are-these-the-women-we-really-…
http://style.uk.msn.com/sex-and-relationships/photos.aspx?cp-documentid=155…
http://www.forbes.com/2010/07/17/role-model-oprah-winfrey-angelina-michelle…
http://www.forbes.com/2010/07/17/role-model-angelina-jolie-hillary-clinton-…
etc.
These should count as "reliable sources". Together they should be enough to
establish the notability of the topic, so your article won't be deleted
right away.
Of course, you may have better sources than these, but make sure that
whatever you cite has been put out by an established publisher with
professional editorial oversight.
And sorry if you knew all of this already.
