Listings for research for biographies of women
The Women in Red project has very detailed listings at Category:Women in Red redlink lists (by occupation).
Sample climate topics
For some broad-based advice on sourcing, see Wikipedia:WikiProject Climate change/Style guide. Category:Climate activists may be helpful to identify areas of activism
Wikipedia:WikiProject Climate change/Small to medium tasks is an official list of the WikiProject. The advice includes "individual discrete events or infrastructure projects", particularly "as news happens"; "write a biography"; "write about an energy or industrial location"; "write about the effects of extreme heat on summer sporting events"; "write about the effects of climate change on ski resorts and winter sport".
General topics, for example those already having an English Wikipedia article such as climate change and birds, may be given a geographical limitation ("X in country Y", for example). There is plenty of relevant content on Wikipedia, in different forms.
- See Wikipedia:WikiProject Climate change/Africa task force/Climate of for a tabulation with redlinks (missing articles), "climate of ..." and "climate change in ..."
- Wikipedia:Meetup/Boston/Climate change MIT January 2023#Articles to work on: here local topics include "wind power in ..." and "solar power in ...".
- Template:Deforestation and desertification shows existing regional content on desertification, for example. (This kind of template is found at the bottom of a page, often minimised to hide most of its content.)
- Category:Wildfires by country shows many countries are missing. E.g. Wildfires in Japan.
- List of environmental laws by country gives many laws without an article, as redlinks, and others that are not linked.
