Wikipedia:WikiProject Dictionary of National Biography/Missing women

See now Wikipedia:WikiProject Dictionary of National Biography/Women in Red

The four queries below bring up ranges of the ODNB-indexed items relevant to finding women from the old DNB without article here. (DNB12 articles may be found in the range 30,000 to 40,000 by reference number.) There is no guarantee that an item with an OBIN number gives a topic that will be notable here, though.

User:Edgars2007/ODNB is a list generated from Wikidata that is comprehensive.

Old listing edit

This is a list of biographies of women from the Dictionary of National Biography, first edition (1885–1900) and first two supplements, that did not match an English Wikipedia article when it was created on 28 July 2013. All the articles had a matching article (or a redirect if trivial) in May 2015.

If you want to create more articles from the DNB text at Wikisource, which is in the public domain, please read about adaptation on Wikipedia:WikiProject Dictionary of National Biography, and other project pages here.

Notes edit

  • Please add  Y to the right of the bullet (i.e. {{tick}}) for any blue link that you have checked as running to an article about the right person; rather than removing the entry. Note inline any existing redirects (e.g. to husbands), rather than ticking.
  • When you add a tick here, it is helpful if you also fill in the "wikipedia=" field in the Wikisource DNB header.
  • Please disambiguate blue links that run to a wrong, unconnected person.
  • This list has now been updated with the DNB second supplement.
  • Names as given in the ODNB (online edition) are preferred, as reflecting current scholarship. They can be noted in the "extra notes" field in the Wikisource DNB header.
  • This list was compiled from Wikisource's DNB using the Map2WP tool. It therefore only ran over biographies for which the "wikipedia=" field in the Wikisource DNB header was empty.
  • This list does not take into account the DNB "See" entries ("soft redirects"), some of which will be redirects of wives to husbands. Those entries are mostly not posted individually on Wikisource.
