IDEA - start WIKIPROJECT in all languages called: Womens Cafe (or
something sociable and helpful sounding) as an outreach, education and
support network
There are several feminism wikiprojects fr:Projet:Femmes -
pl:Wikiprojekt:Gender Studies - sv:Wikipedia:Projekt kvinnor -
es:Wikiproyecto:Feminismo - En. Wikiproject:Feminism There also is a
proposal for WomensHistory. However, many women are not interested in
editing on womens topics and/or want more general education and
support. (And some of course steer away from the word feminism, though
this project hopefully would complement, not compete with any
wikiprojects feminism.) Men of course would be allowed to help and
learn, but doubtless there would be a low tolerance for questionable and
trolling behavior.
Each project could link to some of the helpful things other projects do:
*Quick help box like
http://en.wikipedia.or/wiki/Wikipedia:WikiProject_Feminism
*List of relevant articles about women in wikipedia, including some
gender gap ones, so they can understand context.
*An articles issues page to list articles that whose subject women might
be more interested in, where women can ask for help on where to go when
having problems in articles, or even can list articles where women feel
they are being hassled and would like uninvolved editors' (especially
womens') opinion.
*Links to training videos that show women how to edit on wikipedia and
quickly deal with issues.
*Other relevant links, material, pages, resources, etc.
I don't want to start one in En. WIkipedia, but would certainly join and
help out.
