En.wiki articles I started about women

I have at least one challenger, out there, who I suspect has (falsely!) concluded I hate women. Many years ago, around the time I became aware of the criticism that the wikipedia had a bias against articles about women, I made an effort to increase the number of articles I started about women, women in science, women in the arts, and elewhere.

This list is in more or less last in first out order. It lists articles I started about women, since 2010. It lists all I can think of, including a small number that were deleted.

I have had challengers who have stated (paraphrasing from memory) "Geo Swan is a serial violator of BLP". A small number of these articles were deleted at AFD. I question whether that makes me a "serial violator". I question whether good faith disagreement over TOOSOON should make one the target of an accusation of being a serial policy violator. I am going to link to some notes I made, in 2012, en:User:Geo Swan/BLPs started 2011-02 to 2012-08. Would the record show I was a serial policy violator? I concluded the innuendos from the most persistent person to spread were not based on my actual reacord. At the talk page

I have tried out non-WMF wikis. Every wiki I go to I do my best to follow the rules there. I tried out one run by DARPA, http://complexoperations.org, IIRC. It was supported by DARPA funds, and I did my best to follow DARPA rules there. I follow the rules whereever I am.
