Thanks for sending these along! Since my pet project is women scientists I
want to note some articles that these sources could be used for. And a
hearty congratulations to Maia for a lovely article from Scientific
American! I'm quite pleasantly surprised that half already had articles -
and yes, this is progress. I'm going to write [[Margaret Tisdale]] this
weekend, and y'all can hold me to it.

* [[Kathryn Barnard]] is a redlink
* [[Aída Fernández Ríos]] is a redlink
* [[Anita Kurmann]] is a redlink
* [[Dottie Thomas]] is a redlink
* [[Margaret Tisdale]] is a redlink

Happy new year everyone!
