In January 2017, the English Wikipedia hosted over 200 biographies of classicists but only approximately 10% were of women. The Women's Classical Committee set up this project to take steps towards redressing this gender imbalance, by training and encouraging classicists - whether archaeologists, epigraphers, historians, linguists, numismatists, philologists or anyone else working within this varied discipline - to edit Wikipedia with this focus.

We hold editing sessions online each month and welcome new members to our friendly group. See our events and workshops page for more info.

Seven years on, the English Wikipedia has nearly 3,400 biographies of classicists and 19% are now of women. The WCC has been instrumental in this shift, creating hundreds of articles.
