- As of March 2022, only 19.15% of Wikipedia's English language biographies are about women. The missing 80.85% includes women in all fields including music. In early 2020, Ariel Cetrone (WMDC) of Wikimedia DC created a Spotify playlist featuring notable women musicians and performers who do not currently have dedicated articles in English Wikipedia.
