Hi Caroline - What do you mean in regards to being on gender-gap(a)wikimedia.org? I'm a fan of feminist.us as well! -Sarah On 1/25/12 4:07 PM, Caroline Becker wrote: -- *Sarah Stierch* */Wikimedia Foundation Community Fellow/* <http://wikimediafoundation.org/w/index.php?title=WMFJA085/en/US&utm_source=WMdonate&utm_medium=sidebar&utm_campaign=20110130SB003&language=en&uselang=en&country=US&referrer=http%3A%2F%2Fwikimediafoundation.org%2Fwiki%2FHome><<

Hi, sorry for being laconic, it wasn't really polite. I think this list should be only to discute gender-gap within wikimedia projects overall, not general feminist subjects (nor individual en-wikipedia articles). I think it should be nice for instance to talk about "how to respond to sexual harassment occuring within wikimedia projects ?" "Should we include, in language where "User (female)" "User (male)" are differents words, different namespaces ? (Same for bureaucrats and stewards and admins and...). And I think this list should be international. For instance, in fr-wikipédia, we have issues with jobs which have different names when concerning a woman or a man. Like with "marksman" and "maskwoman". I think this list is really not the place to discuss this, because there is lot and lot of cultural stuff I should explain before anyone understanding the issue. (But I talk about this issue in the report Wikimédia France wrote to the French ministry of French and languages from France.) I don't know if I'm clear, it's late in my timeline and I'm not use to write in English (except for computer science reports). Caroline 2012/1/25 Sarah Stierch &lt;sarah.stierch(a)gmail.com&gt;
