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
