A few months ago, I was asked to help build an article list for a "women in tech" themed editathon aimed at young women. As a "woman in tech", what I find most interesting in this area is the history of organizations, movements, people, and patterns that have supported people like me on a systematic/structural level, not just working on individual biographies. Here's the list I compiled.

Note that this is a list of articles that need improvement, not a summary of Wikipedia articles on this topic. Some are fine already, like women in computing.

Organizations

• Feminist Internet (collective) - not updated in a couple years. It's also an "orphan" article, not linked from any other articles (see Special:WhatLinksHere/Feminist_Internet_(collective)), so it needs to linked from somewhere.
• I Look Like an Engineer - could use more citations
• Society of Women Engineers - address the tags ("This article contains content that is written like an advertisement." and "This article needs additional citations for verification.") or decide they're no longer relevant and delete them
• Women Who Code - needs references, and somebody should probably remove the note at the top of the article that says "A major contributor to this article appears to have a close connection with its subject" since that was added in 2014, which is a million years ago.

Topics

• African-American women in computer science - could use a lot of expansion, especially about African-American computer scientists working today (not just in the past).
• Diversity in computing - even just the introductory paragraph needs copyediting and better citations. This really seems like it should be consolidated with a different article, but fixing the as-is problems would be a start.
• Gender disparity in computing - has some sections that need citations.
• Timeline of women in computing - ends in 2018. Needs info from 2018-present.
• Women and video games#Women in video game streaming - short section, needs expansion.

Categories

• Category:Women in computing - good to rummage around there and look for other articles that need work.
