Rosie Stephenson-Goodknight

Dame Rosie Gojich Stephenson-Goodknight[2] (born December 5, 1953)[3][4] is an American Wikipedia editor, known on the site under the pseudonym Rosiestep, who is noted for her actions addressing gender bias in the encyclopedia by running a project to increase the quantity and quality of women's biographies.

[8][9] David Albala, her grandfather, was a physician and Zionist leader, who served for a period as president of Belgrade's Sephardi community.

[10][11] At a young age, she displayed a keen interest in world culture, but was discouraged by her father from pursuit of a career in anthropology; instead she completed a Master of Business Administration degree.

[12] She found the encyclopedia to be a suitable outlet for anthropology, citing Margaret Mead as an influence:[1][13] Some of you know that I am a cultural anthropologist at heart.

So now, years later, I get to live the life of an armchair cultural anthropologist, writing articles about Goaribari Island and its cannibals.

[2][18] On May 29, 2018, in a ceremony conferring honors on those who deserved high diplomatic recognition, Stephenson-Goodknight was appointed a "Dame of the St. Sava Order of Diplomatic Pacifism" (Vitez svetosavskog pacifizma) by Deputy Serbian Prime Minister and Minister of Foreign Affairs Ivica Dačić,[19] for her work on Wikipedia to preserve the memory of Serbs in the "hundred years since the Great War".

Mention was specifically made of her contribution towards preserving the memory of the Serbian military officer and Jewish community leader, her grandfather David Albala.
