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!!
