I have been a book and periodical editor for decades. Now I am interested in supporting Wikipedia and most especially its balance in terms of rural/urban, gender, heritage diversity and topic diversity. I am not great at the technical side of Wikipedia editing.

Mary Jane Patterson (Did You Know? 13 September 2024)

• Sylvia Ashton-Warner

• Olajumoke (Jay) Abdullahi and Kym Oliver of Triple Cripples. Though they are amazing, sadly I could not find enough independent sources to continue.

• Dr Pragya Agarwal. Evidently an inspiring communicator in speech and writing and of complex ideas. Not enough biographical details available to continue.

• Thelma Gracen. Jazz aficionados rate her singing highly but I could find few traces of her work or biography.
• Ruth Butler, American art historian and academic. I spent two days drafting an article and then found someone working at exactly the same time as me had pipped me by an hour! Never mind, I learned a lot about her and was able to add a little to their article!
• Ericka Abram, daughter of Black Panther members Elaine Brown and Raymond 'Masai' Hewitt, was raised in unusual circumstances. I am hoping she will write a book about her experiences as, at the moment, I cannot find enough sources to establish notability.
• Helen Sinclair makes the most wonderful sculptures but, as yet, none have been exhibited in e.g. The Tate, or bought for vast sums, or bought by a government so, as yet, her sculptures are not notable enough for inclusion, according to Wikipedia guidelines.
• Josefina Villafane de Martinez-Alvarez, a Puerto Rican TB specialist, has been honoured with a women's history postcard but I couldn't find enough sources and I don't read Spanish.
