WiR redlist index: Clubwomen

Welcome to WikiProject Women in Red (WiR). Our objective is to turn red links into blue ones. Our scope is women's biographies, women's works, and women's issues, broadly construed.

This list of red links is intended to serve as a basis for creating new articles on the English Wikipedia. Please note however that the red links on this list may well not be suitable as the basis for an article. All new articles must satisfy Wikipedia's notability criteria with reliable independent sources.

This is a list under development of missing articles on women who are (or have been) clubwomen, as well as the clubs or similar organizations themselves, and the organs (newspapers/magazines) associated with the clubs.

Numerous women's clubs are listed on the National Register of Historic Places, and all of these are deemed wiki-notable. Articles about them can/should cover the club's founding and activities, as well as their building(s) which are listed. Other sources may be available, too, but NRHP nomination documents are available online for most and often include coverage about individual women leaders involved. Commons photos are available already for many, and often may be found by clicking on the redlink, then "what links here" to navigate to the corresponding NRHP county-level list-article. See wp:NRHPHELP about how to get the NRHP documents and about formatting references to them, and feel free to post at wt:NRHP for help of any kind (e.g. perhaps to get others to create NRHP infoboxes for them). Please see List of women's club buildings to see examples.
