Will someone please explain just what it is that I'm doing that is so awful?
Nothing. From what I can see, your attackers are basically all losers, and it's no loss to be hated by them. PML for instance gets zero respect from me - when challenged on a dubious claim, he made lame excuses and has yet to come up with the evidence to back up his claim, but wanted it to be left in anyway(!). Hey, editing Wikipedia would be so much easier and faster if we could just make up stuff and never have to fact-check!
You might find it amusing to create a male-sounding user name and see if the reactions to edits under that name are any different. Unfortunately, there are a lot of chauvinists who are emboldened by the cloak of Internet anonymity.
