These proposals would make a difference in the context of the International Women´s Day or later.I would add a suggestion: to make one or more interviews on this issue, such as the interview with Umberto Eco on Wikipedia, an interview with Michelle Bachelet, for example. Patricia

And to add my two paise: got excited by this thread and just spoke to some women in India, who've been keen on something similar, and are game to do something on or around 8 March.
Something that would be brilliant -- but is there time to organize it for March 8? -- would be to persuade a group of well-known women around the world to open accounts and make a few edits, either using their real names, or otherwise letting people know who they are. With a press announcement in advance that this would be happening.
