Hello Wikimedians,
Today we are pleased to announce the launch of the Inspire Campaign in IdeaLab!
This is great and a motivation for us to go through past and new ideas and add our favorites. I have an extensive (though somewhat disorganized) list of my and others' ideas and will add a thing or two that you all do not add.
I do think our top priority should be something like this for Wikipedia: http://leanin.org/news-inspiration/getting-to-5050-whats-in-it-for-men/ If more guys would stand up to the more abusive guys instead of staying silent, it would solve probably half of our problems with bias, insults, harassment, etc.
Major note: The talk page is almost exclusively put downs of the project and even of women. I will have to re-read more carefully and reply to at least the worst one(s). Hope a few people will do so as well.
