Wiki Loves Women’s 2021 #SheSaid campaign was launched in October.
SheSaid is a drive that encourages *an increase in visibility for
notable women’s voices online by adding their notable quotes to various
language WikiQuote sites.*
For 2021, nine different language communities contributed –*Italian,
Ukrainian, English, Tagalog, Igbo, Spanish, French, Central Bikol, and
Catalan*. In addition to the global drive, 12 members of Wiki Loves
Women’s Focus Group held local training and participation drives with
their communities.
Across the 9 language Wikiquotes a collective of*1,514 articles were
created*. This ensures that 1,514 notable women whose voices and wisdom
had previously not been featured, can now be easily accessed. Articles
for a further*309 women were improved*. In addition,*638
articles*featuring notable women were created onKinyarwanda Wikipedia

The lack of women’s voices in the digital domain is a global issue, one
that we can collective work on in order to change how women are viewed.
By hosting drives such as Wiki Loves Women’s SheSaid campaign, Wikimedia
groups focused on gender help to right this historical imbalance whilst
growing communities as they learn how to contribute.
We are awed by the response and enthusiasm to the second edition of this
drive, and looks forward to the third version in 2022!
We urge that anyone can join this initiative and continue to make an
impact by adding more articles about women.
