Great idea, Joe!
Would you mind connecting me to Stevie?
I also dropped a note on Robin’s talk page this morning, inviting him to email me directly to follow up.
I’m also following up with Ivan Martinez to suggest a blog post about the women’s ‘Editatonas’ they are hosting in Mexico to address the gender gap.
And I am meeting with Siko next week to get more ideas and start planning the Inspire campaign.
We would like to focus our blog coverage in March on programs that effectively address the gender gap -- starting with WikiWomen's March and International Women's Day on March 8 .
So we would be grateful for referrals to a few good programs that are already making a difference — and that have new findings to share.
This thematic focus is a new approach for the blog, and I hope that pro-actively seeking stories on that theme will prove effective ... :)
To be continued,
Fabrice

I’d recommend talking to Stevie at WMUK about this, they’ll likely be writing something up for the Chapter’s blog already.

Sounds great.
I will follow up with Robin Owain, Wikimedia manager Wales, about a possible blog post.

Hi everyone.
We should RT this - its an article out of Swansea University about the first ever Wikipedia Edit-a-thon in Wales with the topic - "Women and Justice". I think now that we are back to bringing these stories from around the world to our followers, I think original copy for F/g would be appropriate.
But for now, let's RT: https://twitter.com/SwanseaUni/status/560839116745871360 https://twitter.com/SwanseaUni/status/560839116745871360
