Wikiwomen Colaborativo es un proyecto comunitario creado por mujeres que editan Wikipedia y otros proyectos de Wikimedia alrededor del mundo, y busca alentar a otras a hacer lo mismo. La mayoría de los colaboradores de Wikipedia son hombres — en el último recuento, la Wikimedia Foundation encontró que sólo 9% de wikipedistas son mujeres. Esta brecha de género no sólo afecta a la comunidad de editores y voluntarios, sino que también afecta a los tipos de contenido que esta comunidad hace disponible en más de 240 idiomas. Inspiradas por el movimiento de las primeras mujeres, esperamos que mediante la creación de sitios en línea dedicados a compartir nuestros proyectos y apoyarnos unas a otras, podamos involucrar a más mujeres a contribuir con Wikipedia.

Heather Walls designed The WikiWomen’s Collaborative logo. The WikiWomen’s Collaborative project supports women’s participation in the Wikimedia movement by celebrating inclusivity and diversity, and this ideal brought some challenges to the design process. The idea for the logo came from a photo taken at the WikiWomen’s lunch at Wikimania in 2012, where over 100 women from around the world gathered. “Looking through our hands creates a sort of window we share,” she said. “The WikiWomen’s Collaborative is about women everywhere contributing to the voice of the world.”

She continues to refine skills and build upon her Wikipedia activities, often editing and linking articles and helping where needed - hoping to bolster webs of knowledge.
