> Theme

From Wikisphere, from 11 to 18 February we organize a asynchronous and virtual editatone to contribute to the objectives of the International Day of Women and Girls in Science, which is held every 11 February (@11defebreroES) for "achieve full and equal access to and participation in science for women and girls, in addition to achieving gender equality and the empowerment of women and girls". Thus, for a week, our community had the opportunity to collaborate in the visibility of women in STEM in Spanish Wikipedia.

For registration, for the first time we use the New Tool Registration in events developed by the Wikimedia Foundation, which made this activity more accessible to other Wikipedians.

In order to facilitate coordination among all participants, 3 lists of articles to create, translate or improve articles. In addition to biographies, several types of content related to the theme of the activity were included, such as international awards that are granted to women in STEM or organizations that host this group.

> Face-to-face meeting

Taking advantage of our weekly face-to-face meeting at the La Fabulosa bookstore in Madrid, on Monday the 12th from 6:00 p.m., from Wikiesfera we join the campaign to make visible on Wikipedia, by creating and translating articles, the biographies of STEM women or STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics), as well as articles related to this topic, such as prizes and organisations.
