I started this project to focus on visual/performance art - the top of the page explains what the project encompasses.
If someone wants to start Wikiproject women writers, women actresses, women farmers, Wikiproject women musicians go for it.

Hi everyone,
Inspired by the work WikiProject women scientists has been doing - and despite helping to found the project and doing many an event about women scientists, art is my true love, and the only two good articles I have under my belt are about artists...so...I decided to take some action :)
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:WikiProject_Women_artists
Help is needed in a few areas:
This sounds like a commendable project, but one thing I am missing after reading the description, is which kind of artists it encompasses. Is it limited to art like painting, sculpting, computer graphics, animation, or does it also encompass art such as music, creative writing, acting[1], etc.? Can you please clarify your intentions on the page?
Regards,
Shlomi Fish
[1] - I'm not sure if there's significant Wikipedia bias for female artists in these artistic areas, but I'm still interested if they fall under the umbrella of the Women Artists WikiProject.
