Happy Birthday to @Anouk. She may seem an unusual choice for our #Womanoftheday. However she created THIS song

Which is our anthem as it is the spirit of our work
which we complete with sister projects in over 30 languages and followers like you.

What amazes us are three things
1. Wikipedia was 15% and its now 19%
2. We have organised 250 editathons (#250 below)
3. There are still people who agree that we can remove even MORE systemic bias from #1 fact source
Thank you. We can.

Toen ze openlijk op een bal met een andere dame zoende werd ze door drie heren uitgedaagd tot een duel. Ze wist hen alle drie te verslaan, maar moest daarop wel de wijk nemen naar Brussel.
A good day to highlight @lessanspagEs and the great work that they have done over the years in fixing the bias on the French Wikipedia. Woo hoo!!
@wikipediafr@WikimediaCAfr.
Time they had another barnstar to recognise their contribution. Its NOT just English!
Our woman of the day is "Sue", It was once argued that Wiki articles about women needed to be created by women editors. We argued that Wikipedia has lots of articles about dinosaurs and only a few of our editors are dinosaurs.We welcome editors of any gender (or species)
Seems appropriate that one of the first "Comedians and other performers" (see logo) who join the 19% women on the English Wikipedia is the aptly named Joke Bruijs (see photo) whose career has seen her called "The First Lady of Rotterdam". @nlWikidames

You can help improve on that 19%. Anyone can become a Wikipedia editor. Check out @restlesscurator on Twitch or watch out for @WikimediaIE or @WikiWomenInRed editathons to rescue more women's stories from the forests of history #WeCanEdit

Then take note of these sessions @Wikimania! ✏️🧵👇🏾
@CumbriUni's VC has a new article, with a picture cropped from Flickr. Could the university publish some @CreativeCommons licensed pictures of her and staff?
