Hello!
Can you please tell me how to remove my email from this list. I originally joined because I was interested in becoming a Wiki-woman! But I was in denial over the amount of time I would've had to dedicate to the effort.
Thanks for your help.
Karen
Hi Karen! We hate to lose you, but I can understand that other things in life may take precedence. Just log on to https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/gendergap and follow the instructions for unsubscribing.
Just to throw out other ideas, take some time to check out alternate lists at https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo, or the travel project at http://en.wikivoyage.org/wiki/Main_Page or the Women's History project at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:WikiProject_Women%27s_History.
Let me know if you need any help or have questions.
Best regards,
Cindy

Also, remember that you do not need to be on this mailing list to be a "wiki-woman"! Anyone who edits Wikipedia, no matter how frequent or large their contributions are, is a Wikipedian and an editor. While participation here on the mailing list is nice, it is by no means a prerequisite to being an editor.
As Cynthia says, you can still be involved every now and then just by editing on the site. If you come across a typo or grammar error while reading an article, feel free to go ahead and change it. If you notice we're missing an article on a topic you think we should have, please go ahead and create one. It doesn't matter how small your change is and it does not have to be perfect -- the beauty of Wikipedia is that we all build on each other's contributions and create something that is much more than the sum of the individual edits.
I hope you are able to stay involved as your schedule permits! As Cynthia said, please do let us know if you have any questions along the way and we'll be happy to help. :-)
