See Josephine K. Henry added to the portal by me in March 2010.
The portal is not been edited very much since then.
I wrote about Nannie Helen Burroughs on WP and WQ.
One way to do it is to write an Wikipedia article, upload images to Commons,
add their published works to Wikisource, and an entry on Wikiquote with good
quotes. It is a very efficient way to do it.
I've done it in the past for a few people. It is a great way to meet new
people on the other projects.

Yes! I have never edited or contributed anything to
wikiquote. I have
contributed to Wikisource, and I'm starting to think I'm the only woman who
ever has, even though it was two documents. I don't even think there is much
of anything related to women's history on Wikisource...
We were discussing in #wikimedia-gendergap a few days ago about the need
for more featured images of women and related subjects on Commons. I kept
rolling my eyes everytime I saw the ATV that was a featured image the other
day.
I'm actually developing a wikipage that will showcase a collection of
topics that need expansion, watching, clean up, etc, and/or photos for
English Wikipedia, which I naturally assume will be the same for other
languages. Once it's a little fleshed out we can see if it's useful in any
way. I think it's interesting just to see what we're lacking on...on top of
the 1009232 other things I'm doing...

Looking at my wikiquotes talk page for the first
time in a while, I was
reminded that is another area women's contributions may not be taken as
seriously.
Example: the deletion in 2009 of poet Marcella Boccia's quotes from
English wikipedia after her article had been deleted from En wikipedia.
Actually, I just checked and it's not in the Italian wikipedia version
either. Despite
http://www.google.com/search?ned=us&hl=en&q=Marcella+Boccia&tbm…
in Italian I noted at time of deletion discussion.
So let's not forget Wikiquote!!
