"I'm writing to you from BBC Radio Scotland's "Newsdrive" programme. We spotted an article in today's press about Wikipedia's drive for more female contributors and would like to requst an interview with Jimmy Wales. If that's not possible, would there be anyone else from Wikipedia available to talk to us at 17.45 UK time ? It would be a short interview over the telephone (3.00-3.30 mins). We'd be asking why there's a shortage of female contributors, and what subjects women might be more likely cover."
Probably not able to do this one myself ... but do we have talking point answers on this one? Anything resembling actual data, not surmise.
