Last I heard, Wikipedia doesn't want to carry an article for every university professor or scientist who has published some papers. In glancing through Wade's entries, it seems like many of them are just published scholars without any additional notability. I wonder if Wikipedia's notability rules are being uniformly respected here, or are they being selectively applied based on the gender of the person?
I think it's great that Wade is bringing more visibility to lesser-known female scientists, but if we are valuing that, I think we should do so regardless of the subject's identity. Maybe Wikipedia should relax its notability rules a bit for scholars.
If you are inspired to downvote this, I would be curious to know if you disagree with my proposal, or just dislike that I brought up the issue at all.
