Given to this success and noting that there is still a lot to do, the #SheSaid drive will run again in 2024 and will run from the 1st of September till 31st of December 2024

The SheSaid is a drive run by Wiki In Africa as part of the Wiki Loves Women initiative. The campaign aims to celebrate and recognize women by focusing on enhancing their representation and visibility on Wikiquote. Through this drive, the WLW initiative encourages the creation and improvement of Wikiquote entries related to these influential women, thus contributing to a more inclusive and diverse representation of their voices and perspectives.

The impact of the #SheSaid campaign on Wikiquote has been truly remarkable, with over 15,555 new articles created or edited in 18 different languages across the last three editions. This impressive achievement reflects the collective effort and dedication of the Wiki Loves Women initiative and the different participating communities in celebrating and increasing the visibility of women leaders.

The continuous growth in the number of articles created or edited with each edition showcases the sustained success of the campaign. It indicates a growing awareness and commitment from contributors around the world to bridge the gender gap in representation and recognition.

Why the SheSaid campaign?

To balance the representation of gender in the entries of Wikiquote.

To illustrate the situation, here are a few interesting figures:

On the English Wikiquote main page on 6th of Oct 2020, in the Selected people section, 29 men were featured and only 4 women (see the screenshot on the right).
There were 260 women who had featured articles on either French or English Wikipedias... with no entry on the French Wikiquote.
There were 162 women who had featured articles on the English Wikipedia with no wikiquote entry.
There were 777 women and 3504 men listed on the French wikiquote.

As a matter of comparison, in September 2024 there are 1450 women as opposed to 3879 men listed on the French wikiquote.

Obviously, not all women say good quotes that would make a wikiquote entry worth it. Also note that notability rules depends on language Wikiquotes.

Women ?

The primary and most important goal of the drive is to collect quotes « from women ». Occasionally, the quotes may be « about women » or they may be in tight relation with female gender topics; that’s ok but not the primary goal.
"Woman" must be understood as "person self-identified as a woman". Some participants do sometimes add quotes from non-binary people; that’s ok but not the primary goal.

Kimler katılabilir?

Communications and design

Creating visuals to promote the campaign and Wikiquote each edition is an effective way to engage the audience and generate interest in the initiative.

Visual materials like postcards, bookmarks, and banners which can serve as eye-catching reminders of the campaign's mission and encourage people to take part. They can be distributed at events, conferences, and other gatherings to attract attention and spark interest in Wikiquote and the importance of recognizing and celebrating women.
