Why this choice of topic?

Because:

• Less than 20% of the biographies on Wikipedia are those of women.
  
• Less than 10% of the contributing editors are women.

Wikipedia is one of the world’s most popular websites – but it is failing to accurately reflect our society and history because women are missing from Wikipedia pages, both as subjects and editors.

As Wikimedia CH, we bring people together with the aim of disseminating free knowledge for a smart and open society. We enable Wikipedians to share knowledge and connect them with the Wikimedia universe.
