​We've got Wikipedia:Gendergap
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Gendergap> that we could do
something with, and Wikipedia:WikiProject Countering systemic bias/Gender
bias task force
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:WikiProject_Countering_systemic_bias/Gender_bias_task_force>,
which has members but hasn't been active.
