My first thought was that this indeed is a red herring in terms of addressing the gendergap, however in my limited editing experience I do at times feel like Wikipedia is a boys' club, and perhaps the prevalence of pornography goes some way to an imagining of what is hanging on the clubhouse walls

Hi,

I edit Wikipedia a lot.  I probably spend more time than I should editing Wikipedia.  Can I ask where there is a prevalence of pornography on Wikipedia?  I honestly can't think of a single time I have come across it when I wasn't directly looking for it.  Misogny to a degree, yes.  Discrimination against women's topics and topics outside the United States, youbetcha.  But pornography?  Maybe I just don't edit articles where pornography is very prevalent?
