Welcome to the WikiProject page for WriteHers: Women Writers and Philosophers of the Early Modern Period (c. 1600-1800).
This project has been started by a group of four Wikipedians with the aim of adding and improving entries on early modern women writers/philosophers to English Wikipedia (with the possibility of including other language sites if we find interested editors/participants). We're currently applying for a Wikimedia Project Grant (Round 2 2018) to fund a year-long campaign to recruit editors and host an extended edit-a-thon. You can find our proposal here.
The project will begin once we start setting up for our first major edit-a-thon next year. At that stage, we'll update this page with details about project-related offline and online events, as well as info about how to join and resources for editors (including editing templates). In the meantime, we'll be adding information about the kinds of entries the project would be creating and improving. If you have feedback, would like to suggest entries for creation/enhancement, or want to join once our edit-a-thon goes live, please feel free to get in touch via this project's talk page or our user pages.
Goals
Our project will invite experts from around the world to create and update English Wikipedia articles about early modern women writers/philosophers and their works. This will take a step towards addressing the well-known gender imbalance in Wikipedia entries on notable figures, and will get more academic researchers involved in the Wikimedia community, enhancing Wikipedia’s role as a reliable, authoritative source of information.
Scope
This project will focus on women writers/philosophers who lived and worked between 1600 and 1800. We'll be enhancing and creating entries about these women and their key works, and updating lists to ensure that these entries are can be easily located by people interested in relevant topics (early modern philosophy, women philosophers, etc.). We want to improve the quality, quantity and structure of English Wikipedia articles about these figures.
Some of the women philosophers we will focus on include: Margaret Cavendish, Anne Conway, Mary More, Bathsua Makin, Margaret Fell Fox, Mary Astell, Mary Chudleigh, Damaris Cudworth Masham, Judith Drake, Elizabeth Burnet, Elizabeth Thomas, Catharine Trotter Cockburn, Sarah Chapone, ‘Eugenia’, ‘Sophia’, Sor Juana Inés de la Cruz, Emilie du Chatelet, Marie le Jars de Gournay, Marguerite Buffet, Gabrielle Suchon, Elisabeth of Bohemia, Sophie Electress of Hanover, Sophie-Charlotte of Prussia, Christina of Sweden, Moderata Fonte, Lucrezia Marinella, Arcangela Tarabotti, Anna Maria van Schurman, Elizabeth Carter, Louise Keralio-Robert, Elise Reimarus, Sophie de Grouchy, Catharine Macaulay, Mary Wollstonecraft, Olympe de Gouges, Laura Bassi, Mary Hays, Mary Shepherd, Cornelie Wouters, and others.
There are Wikipedia articles for the majority of these figures, and some are quite good and comprehensive (see, for example, those on Cavendish, Elisabeth of Bohemia, Macaulay, Suchon, and Wollstonecraft). But many are poor quality according to both academic standards and WikiProject assessment standards (see, for example, those on Buffet, Eugenia, Cockburn, and Reimarus). In many cases, the scholarly references are ten years old or even older, and many figures are not explicitly recognised in the articles for their contributions to philosophy. There are also varying standards in terms of the clarity and relevance of intellectual content and the simplicity and structural organisation of articles. Some articles also require further work to be developed into proper encyclopedia entries that are written in a simple and accessible style, that cover the main dimensions of the figure’s works/ideas, and that describe the figure in a non-biased way. There are no Wikipedia articles for Chapone, More, and Sophia, three figures who made significant contributions to feminist philosophy in their time.
More info on women writers to come shortly!
Editing advice
Once the edit-a-thon goes live, we'll be providing training resources for new editors, as well as editing advice and templates (based on current templates for writers/philosophers and key works).

Writers
An initial survey of the existing Wikipedia pages for fifty-one of the best-known, most-studied and cited women writers of the long-18th century:
- 19 of 51 (37%) have no separate list of Works [the obvious place to links to pages on those individual works], and a number that use eccentric arrangements (or, at least, these are inconsistent with each other), especially for indicating a linked online text.
- 34 of 51 (66%) have no pages for individual works; many of the individual pages that exist are stubs; there are also numerous internal links to non-existent pages (in expectation, presumably, that these pages will appear one day). The total number of pages for individual works is 51, or an av. of 1.5 per author (who have such pages at all) or 1 (across all authors).
- 12 of 51 (24%) have no links to online texts of individual titles; another 25 of 51 (50%) only have indirect links (usually a link to the author on the Internet Archive); only 5 of 51 (10%) a link to an individual works; many have eccentric location arrangements for the linked online texts (under Works, References, Further Reading, or Links). In addition, a number of links are dead, or are linked to the wrong page (for instance, to the The Eighteenth-Century Poetry Archive splash-page, instead of author pages).
- 25 of 51 (50%) have poor period/sex/genre categorization; another 14 of 51 (total of 75%) need work; only six (12%) are generally satisfactory
All pages would benefit from a more consistent format, and having all links checked and updated.
Candidates for new Wikipedia entries among notable women writers from the long-18th century have been identified by the WikiProject Women Writers on their Missing articles list page.
Both existing Wikipedia entries and candidates for new entries will be examined closely to establish which authors and works meet Wikipedia's notability criteria in relation to historical significance, using such reliable sources as primary, secondary and tertiary sources, especially review articles, and Google Scholar citations, to establish academic consensus.

Please do the same if you want to discuss/challenge another participant's request or one of the articles already added to the 'Articles to be created' section above. If the project community agrees with the request, it will be added to our official tasklist.
Requests for new improvements
Please list any articles that you think need to be added to our task list of articles to update/enhance, providing some general details about the nature of the changes you would like to see. (Check our list of 'Articles to be updated/enhanced' for suggestions of types of improvement that you might like to include.) If you would like to discuss the improvements further, or would like to discuss someone else's request, please use the Talk page. If the project community agrees to the request, it will be added to our official tasklist.
General discussion, issues, concerns
If you would like to discuss any entry related to the project, please feel free to start a section on the Talk page at any point.
