To do this, we keep our sites fast, reliable, and available to all. We protect the values and policies that allow free knowledge to thrive. We build new features and tools to make it easy to read, edit, and share from our sites. Above all, we support the communities of volunteers around the world who edit, improve, and add knowledge across Wikimedia projects.

    Two years ago, @jesswade started adding #WomenInScience into @Wikipedia as a solo side project. Having finished her 900th biography, she's now at the helm of a global movement to bring overlooked women and people of color into the sum of all knowledge.

    Have you heard of Dr. @JessWade? The @TODAYShow calls her “something of a phenomenon... in her very personal campaign to bring more girls to study and work in STEM.” We are thankful that campaign includes adding well over a thousand articles to @Wikipedia.
