When I looked at this title, I *thought* it would be an interesting essay on representations of Women in Science Fiction, which the title kind of implies. Instead, this is an article on Women Science Fiction Authors. All qualms about separating this from articles on Science Fiction as a whole aside, I think that this needs a new title and an appropriate article (I am not volunteering, because I don't think I could do justice to it) written in its place. I would assume that that article would not just include the treatment of Women in SF by women authors, but also some kind of "change over time, with influx of more female authors..." as well as treatment in art by people like Vallejo and Frazetta. Still don't see any justification for separating it. Anybody looking up Sci Fi will just miss out, I guess. SO I guess, even though it's important enough for an article, it's not important enough to be read by anybody that doesn't think to look under Women. JHK, feminist and proud of it.

<2 cents>Please note: [Judy-Lynn Del Rey]? known as an editor (I think also writer). If we have an entry on Women Science Fiction Authors without one on Women in Science Fiction, somebody is sure to produce an example of a woman noted for being the latter without also being the former. </2 cents>
