Contribute a suggestion for our Wikipedia Project: Is there a woman mathematician who you think should have a Wikipedia article? Or do you have a woman mathematician in mind whose Wikipedia article needs a translation or an edit? Then tell us about her in this form.

Keep in mind: The more information and references you can provide, the easier it will be for our authors to write an article. Of course you can also make an anonymous suggestion or suggest yourself!

Our authors will consider the suggestions depending on their capacity and expertise.
