"How does Wikipedia know the sex of its editors? "
Most just can't keep it to themselves.
Maybe Wiki needs to set up a gay editors' Bar, with free drinks.

Would you react differently to a Wiki entry if you knew the author was a woman? If so - who cares?

Make Wikipedia, about feelings

Like I ever cared about the internal plumbing of an author. Why is that so important to man-hating feminists?

Educators say raising that number is key to improving the online encyclopedia,Surely they aren't inferring that men and women are different, are they?

Does it really matter? It doesn’t erase the fact world history was made by men.

People are going to do what they are going to do.
Absent specific measurable incentives, people do what they want. That is what drives lefties batty. They think people should behave according to rules.
It is why they don’t even bother to make cRap movies anymore. Whites won’t watch them and Blacks just shoot each other in the theater lobby.
Guys post to Wikipedia, chicks don’t. What are you gonna do about it?

How far should gender balance be struck? Across ALL articles or only on those that interest women?
