Quick: name a famous female scientist. If you said "Marie Curie," you're not alone. In fact, a lot of people can't think of a single other example. Well, England's Royal Society is fixing to rectify that. On Friday, October 19th, it's sponsoring a Wiki-editing marathon for articles about women in science.
快问快答：说出一位有名的女科学家的姓名。当然你的答案是“居里夫人”，会这么回答的不止你一个。事实上，许多人都想不出第二个女科学家的名字。然而，英国皇家学会正在努力修正这种现状。10月19号星期五，他们资助维基长期撰写关于女性科学家的文章。
Wikipedia is the go-to source for information on pretty much everything. But its coverage is a little light when it comes to the achievements of women in science, technology, engineering and math. So the Royal Society is looking for volunteers with wi-fi and a bit of Wiki knowhow to create or enhance entries on female scientists.
维基百科是人们查找信息的重要来源，但涉及到女性在科学、技术、工程和数学方面取得的成就时，覆盖面却很低。因此皇家学会在寻求能 wi-fi上网，稍懂维基的志愿者，帮忙创建或者丰富有关女科学家的词条。
Suggestions include Lilian Bland, the first woman to build and fly her own aircraft; Martha Ludwig, who helped solve the first protein crystal structure done in the US; and Barbara Crawford Johnson, the only woman to serve on the NASA team that engineered the moon landing.
推荐人物包括莉莲·布兰德，她是史上第一位建造并驾驶自己飞机的女性；还包括玛莎·路德维希，她的主要成就是参与测定第一个蛋白晶体结构；还有芭芭拉·克劳福德·约翰逊，她是美航局月球着落工程团队仅有的一位女性成员。
You can take part in the effort using Twitter. The hashtag is #WomenSciWP. That's women-S-C-I-W-P. So give Marie Curie a well-earned rest and help other women in science get the wiki-recognition they deserve.
你可以通过维基参与进来。维基的标签是#WomenSciWP，即 women-S-C-I-W-P。让居里夫人享受一下她应得的休息，让其他的女科学家们获得她们应得承认吧！
