Done. The right-to-left scripts can be a challenge,
especially if your
keyboard is not set up for it. Sometimes it is easier to copy/paste. It
helps when these wikis have sets of brackets and double brackets at the
bottom of the page so you can highlight something and format it easily. Of
course that only works if they have MediaWiki markup enabled as the
default, as hewiki seems to, or if you can figure out how to disable the
Visual Editor.

On the English Wikipedia there are some trans

Red list, LBT section:

Wikipedia:WikiProject_Women_in_Red/LBT_Women
I just bluelinked one of them with a new article on Angelica Ross (
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Angelica_Ross). I'd add the link to the
DanVeg page, but I can't read Hebrew and am afraid of screwing up...

I'm noticing that most, if not all of the articles on that page already
have English translations. Is there a list of redlinks somewhere of
articles that would be of importance to the transgender community that
people could work on?
Here is one for the list: there is no article in Hebrew as yet for
transgender rights activist Nisha Ayub, who received the International
Women of Courage Award in 2016.
Many of the individuals who receive this type of award are in danger or
have been imprisoned for their activities. Imagine the effect of having a
Wikipedia page that pictures them standing next to a high-ranking
government official.

Dear friends,
We're sorry to inform you that user:DanVag chose to end her life last
week. User:Danveg was an active editor in HEWK and contributed mostly in
the subject of gender and transgender issues. She was also an active
volunteer in TLV Wikiwomen group. She guided newbies at Wikiwomen meetups
with a lot of patience and kindness.
As she was part of the transgender community, we urge you to consider
editing articles about transgender issues in her memory. Please add the
articles you edited to this page
