Re: [Gendergap] Forbes Top 100 Women List

There are many forms of bias. All 10 of those previously without bios
are notable in the field of business.
It would be difficult to make an exact   comparison with men at a
similar level, but I would expect similar results--many CEOs of even
of the most important companies in the world are not included in WP.

Okay, I got five stubs up. I would also recommend revising the cat to
reflect the year noted on the list. I'll probably spend time working on Maria
das Graças Silva Foster and Sheri McCoy (Avon) today. My mother retired
after 20-some-odd years working as the executive of sales and management
training with Avon Products, so several executive bios have been on my list
of things to do for quite a while now.

Hi everyone,

Forbes Magazine released their list of the world's 100 most powerful 
women. Wikimedia Foundation's own Sue Gardner is #70! Very very cool 
:)  Congratulations Sue!


http://www.forbes.com/sites/carolinehoward/2012/08/22/the-worlds-100-most-powerful-women-2012-this-year-its-all-about-impact/

For fun, I made a not so glamorous list of the top 100 women and their 
article quality, you can see it here:


http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:SarahStierch/100power

Starts win the award for the most, at 52. The three FA's are popular 
culture icons (the Queen of England, Angelina Jolie and JK Rowling - 
the latter Sue beat out on the list ;D ). Two of the top five are in 
that area (...as is Sue's article). You'll also find a few red links, 
and who knows what this list looks like in your preferred language or 
project.


A nice starting point for edit-a-thons, personal wiki-agendas, and 
improvement.

Thanks for that list Sarah and congrats Sue!  I've begun working on some
sub-stubs for the red linked women.  I plan on circling back to  expand them
once I have turned all of the links blue.  I've also created a new category
(Category:Forbes most powerful women).  I'm adding the articles I create to
that, but I've decided to hold off on adding more until someone else
