Hi everyone,

I'm putting together a timeline of women's and transwomen's roles in the movement or subjects on Wikipedia. I'd like to have your input on the following:

Women who have been involved in the founding of a chapter or organization related to Wikimedia projects
First women of Wikimedia projects - women who played pioneering or important roles in Wikimedia projects as say, the first woman.
Do you know the first article or content in your project that was related to a woman? Or perhaps the first Featured Article in your Wikipedia that was a biography about a woman (or the like).

I understand that not all women want to be associated as pertinent figures in the movement based on gender!

I'd appreciate any insight and media (images released CC BY A or PD preferably) related to this "history".

Please email me OFFLIST.

Thanks :)

-Sarah
