Along with any PR it might be a good idea to provide a link to the Facebook group, this
list or a portal where new women editors can give feedback on their experience of
editing. 

If new editors run into problems, it would be good to hear about these problems. Then we
can either investigate and do what's necessary to prevent other new editors having the
same problems, or at least explain why the problems arose and how they can be minimised.

The historical reasons for the lower percentage
of women in science and technology
are mostly the same reasons women aren't
participating on Wikipedia.  There will
be a few differences, but on the whole
moving forward is just as important
as studying why.  The studying why
is very expensive, and has been going
on for decades. Let's just get on with
it, and put out the PR that we are
celebrating and requesting women's
participation as experts on the
Wikipedia site.
