That's what I have been doing. That's what Adrianne and I practice(d) and it's worked well so far.

Now it's a global movement devoid of the drama that happens here. I am proud of that.

Do the GGTF-type organizing off wiki, not on-wiki. That's not the place for it.

Start your own message board akin to Wikipediocracy. Organize (and vent) there.

Use Facebook, etc.

Concentrate on developing new feminist editors, helping them through the steep learning curve, with an emphasis on content, content, content. Nobody is going to have a problem with that.

My tips are:

1) No talk pages if I can avoid it
2) Other channels (sorry people, but not all revolutions can take place in
front of everyone)
3) Social media

I get more value asking for help on Twitter and Facebook than I do on any
other medium.

ANd that's why the WikiWomen's Collaborative was created - social media
brings more females (since we use it more than males!).
