Tack, Harald. I think this is also an important point and I like your idea.
From the list I've sent, we can see only a few women (two names I've
recognized are co-workers, so that is not fair now :).
I strongly believe we need humanize more Wikipedia and I believe such videos can help a bit with that, mainly if we find women for helping us.
Best,
Tom

This sounds good Tom,
Today I had a workshop at a Swedish High School about Wikipedia, and we discussed some about the difference between men and women on wikipedia. In the same time my collegue said it would be good if we could find famous persons who could be "Wikipedia-embassadors" (willing to say "I am editing on Wikipedia"). You (and Axel on the video) have good idéas. What I was thinbking was that maybe we should try to find famous women who could say what they think about wikipedia. This would be good for all the women and girls who needs to find people to look at and see "They can, and so can I!"
