Emily Temple-Wood

The new alchemy: turning online harassment into Wikipedia articles on women scientists « Wikimedia blog
One of the many women scientist biographies Emily Temple-Wood has worked on is Barbara McClintock, a 1983 winner of the Nobel Prize. Photo from the Smithsonian, public domain.

Meet your new hero, Emily Temple-Wood — for each harassing email she receives, Wikipedia gets one new article on a woman in science.

(thanks to Sarah for sending this in!)
