This is a page listing the known female professors* in New Zealand who do not yet have a Wikipedia page. Not all professors are notable, but many will be so it is a good starting point for finding women who should be on Wikipedia. If you do not find enough information for a Wikipedia article, you can always add what you do find, reference-wise, to their Wikidata item instead to assist if they become notable in the future.
To get a full list of professors, whether they have a Wikipedia page or not, try this Sparql query https://w.wiki/5nci
To add someone to the list, do not edit below! You need to edit their Wikidata item to have P39 (position held) of 'full professor' (Q25339110). Ideally they also have a qualifier start time (P580) if you can find it, the employer that promoted them to professor (P108), and a reference.
*The list is limited to full professors, excluding emeritus, associate, visiting, and other types of professor. This is purely to keep the list manageable.
This list is automatically generated from data in Wikidata and is periodically updated by Listeriabot.
Edits made within the list area will be removed on the next update!
