Welcome to WikiProject Women artists, a WikiProject dedicated to ensuring quality and coverage of biographies of women artists and their works. This is to help solve the systemic bias against women artists in Wikipedia. Women artists comprise visual and performance artists. This project was inspired by WikiProject Women scientists. See also Wikipedia:WikiProject Women writers, which includes works by women writers, and Wikipedia:WikiProject Dance, which includes women dancers and choreographers. Actresses and women musicians and their works seem to be well-covered at Wikipedia:WikiProject Musicians and Wikipedia:WikiProject Actors and Filmmakers, except for films which pass the Bechdel test, which should be added to this project. Any problems about women in any of these categories can be discussed on the talk page.
This project focuses on creative professionals - and their works - who create:
We are also happy to welcome women arts patrons and art collectors.
Besides biographies, lists of works by women artists and articles about individual works of art by these women also fall under the scope of this project.
Since biographies are potentially under the purview of almost all WikiProjects, it is important that we work in tandem with these projects. Also, when seeking collaboration on articles, don't neglect to approach WikiProjects that are part of the geographical region your subject is/was in.
Increase the exposure of our work group by nominating our articles for their Portal FA and DYKs... Specific regional/country portals are listed in that section.
A list of articles needing cleanup associated with this project is available. See also the tool's wiki page and the index of WikiProjects.
