WiR redlist index: Occupations Q to Z


Welcome to WikiProject Women in Red (WiR). Our objective is to turn red links into blue ones. Our scope is women's biographies, women's works, and women's issues, broadly construed.

This list of red links is intended to serve as a basis for creating new articles on the English Wikipedia. Please note however that the red links on this list may well not be suitable as the basis for an article. All new articles must satisfy Wikipedia's notability criteria with reliable independent sources. This list needs to be updated manually.

  1. Removing blue links, unless they are marked as incorrect in some way. Please check mononymous or duplicate blue links (e.g. Abigail or two women both named Jane Smith but with different dates) to make sure the listed woman has an entry.
  2. Adding a redirect if you find that a name redlinked here has an entry under another name, so the redlinked name will be searchable in the encyclopedia.
  3. If you add a new redlink to a section, please indicate this next to the link, so that it can be added to Wikidata and appear on the redlink list generated from Wikidata.
