Five undervalued women architects Part W is creating Wikipedia pages for
Women s architecture collective Part W is one of several organisations working to increase the number of female architects listed on Wikipedia. On International Women s Day, Sarah Ackland has picked five significant women that she believes should have pages on the site.
The current and historic gender imbalance of those working in architecture is well documented and is reflected on Wikipedia, where many significant women architects do not have listings. It s important that Wikipedia include significant women
According to Ackland, only 17 per cent of all biographies on Wikipedia are about women and this makes it is harder for the general public to find information about female architects.
The Eagle Inn, Dunbar. Image: Google Maps TWO county brothers who refused to wear face masks in a Dunbar pub and shouted homophobic abuse at police officers have avoided a jail sentence. Barry Rutherford, 30, and Lee Rutherford, 28, threatened bar staff at two pubs in East Lothian after they had been asked to cover up while inside the premises and refused service. The pair were told they were not being served at The Eagle Inn in Dunbar due to their behaviour and, after being asked to leave, Barry Rutherford told one worker: “F off, I’ll remember your face”. The brothers then went to The Golf Tavern in Haddington, seeking a room for the night.
