General

General considerations. Things that you can do to improve any article.

Gender Bias

Articles which display a gender bias that contributors can help to correct, or where the work of relevant Gender Studies researchers is not discussed (yet should be).

Biased Language

Usage of the terms "Miss" or "Mrs." should be changed to "Ms." or, preferably, removed entirely.

Description by Physical Characteristics

A woman's height and weight are generally considered irrelevant except in the cases of athletes and models.

Biased Pictures

Oftentimes, the images selected to represent women are among the most sexualized, and least humanizing. If possible, attempt to locate suitable alternatives.

Possessive Terminology

Referring to someone as the wife of (or husband of) someone implies possession of them by their husband or wife. Terminology such as is married to restores the person's humanity, and keeps the focus on the person being described.
