I am interested in IRC but there are already too many things on http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Proposals_for_increasing_female_editors to suggest for an about an hour long meeting, so if you want to talk about solutions on IRC, please pick your top solution ideas you want to talk about. My top two on that list are: 1. Girl Scouts partnership, US and internationally 2. Improve articles on birth control in the Simple English Wikipedia Here are two new ideas that may not be on the proposals list yet: 3. Angela Santomero -- http://angelasclues.com/ -- has access to PBS public service announcement production facilities and she might be willing to support ads that encourage girls to try editing. 4. I'd also like to understand more about how people feel about plagiarism guidance to teachers. I've not put it on the list yet, but with the recently announced statistic that 30% of prolific editors started out vandalizing, I'm not sure we can rule out student plagiarists as a potential gender balanced source of new editors the Foundation could recruit by issuing formal guidance to teachers. Such guidance might look like, "...Foundation recommends that students caught plagiarizing from Wikimedia sites be assigned to improve (the plagiarized) articles on the site (no matter how slightly) so that they might become familiar with improving wiki articles."
