[Gendergap] "Google+ Users Are Still Mostly Male"

[Sarah Stierch]

Google+ Users Are Still Mostly Male

http://mashable.com/2011/11/09/google-plus-gender-ratio/

Also includes a nice (and depressing) chart that depicts gender ratios on
other social media pages (Bebo and Myspace are the most female dominated -
lame!)

Marc,

This could get fun -- more virtual ink has been spilled on the "top-post"
vs. "bottom-post" debate about mailing lists than on most topics :) 

In my opinion, both are useful tools. For a detail-oriented discussion,
especially if several people are participating, putting your comments below
the prior post -- or weaving individual points in where they belong -- can
be the easiest to follow. In other cases, if what you're seeking to do is
reply broadly to the overall message(s) sent before, top-posting may work
better. (But if a certain approach has already taken hold within a
discussion, it's often less confusing if you follow the example of those
before you.)

Above all, I try to keep in mind how it will appear to the reader, and make
sure I'm presenting myself as clearly as possible. So I'd say, case-by-case,
and, as Risker says, trim stuff that is not essential to your point.

Hope that helps!
-Pete

Good points, Pete. Differentiating between specific and general responses
makes the most sense.

Thanks,
Marc

Re: [Gendergap] Gendergap Digest, Vol 10, Issue 4

[Sarah Stierch]

Hi Audrey,

Great idea. I am hoping in the near future to work on developing a model
release form, and that might be an opportunity to explore its uses. I have
noticed that there is quite a healthy amount of Wikipedia articles (and if
it's a large list in English, it's probably the same if not longer in other
languages) related to fashion (for men and women) that lack photographs.[1]

There is also the opportunity to crop and anonyomize images, if need be,
like you suggested (or just blurring a face).

Feel free to send me any links off list of Fashion blogs that you think
might be "outreachable." I'm hoping to gather a list of materials
like this
for some research I'm developing.

Thank you!

-Sarah

Hi everyone,

I want to congratulate Sumana Harihareswara, Volunteer Development
Coordinator<http://blog.wikimedia.org/2011/05/03/welcome-sumana-harihareswara-volunteer-development-coordinator/>for
the Wikimedia Foundation, on being chosen as Femmeonomics "50 Women to
Watch in Tech."  She's listed alongside some really amazing women -
including Valerie Aurora who is a friend of this mailing list and
co-founder of the Ada Initiative. <http://adainitiative.org/>[1]

She's quite a voice within the community - encouraging developers and
programmers to get involved in Wikimedia and participating in conferences
like Open Source
Bridge<http://blip.tv/open-source-bridge/open-source-bridge-2011-sumana-harihareswara-5315059>;.
On a personal note, Sumana has been a beam of encouragement for me, and has
helped me gain confidence in regards to my "open source skills" and 
helping
me learn more about feminist and women's roles and organizations in the
open source community. She's also great to share a bottle of wine with.

Congratulations Sumana! We'll be watching (pressures on!)

-Sarah

Hi Mike,

As I just sent out re:Migdia, it states on the sign up page for the list
"To see the collection of prior postings to the list, visit the Gendergap
Archives ."[1] Unless we
chose to make this a close list, that is by approved subscription only
(like internal-l[2] or cultural partners[3]), it will still not remove the
public content already on the public web. And it would require community
support for a closed list (which I don't think is necessary, personally).

It's unfortunate if this will possibly change your participation on the
list from here on out, but, since the lists inception in February it has
been a public mailing list.

I DID NOT understand that posts to this list were public posts, and my

Re: [Gendergap] Please remove my comments including this one

[Nathan]

Unfortunately the list is public (there is a link to public archives
on the subscription page), and posts to it are collected by several
services that are unrelated to Wikimedia. Since the posts are stored
by private third parties, there is no good method for removing them.
You can try inquiring with the various services directly, if you can
determine who they are and how to contact them.

[Gendergap] Congratulations to WMF's Sumana Harihareswara!

[Sarah Stierch]

Hi everyone,

I want to congratulate Sumana Harihareswara, Volunteer Development
Coordinatorfor
the Wikimedia Foundation, on being chosen as Femmeonomics "50 Women to
Watch in Tech."  She's listed alongside some really amazing women -
including Valerie Aurora who is a friend of this mailing list and
co-founder of the Ada Initiative. [1]

She's quite a voice within the community - encouraging developers and
programmers to get involved in Wikimedia and participating in conferences
like Open Source
Bridge.
On a personal note, Sumana has been a beam of encouragement for me, and has
helped me gain confidence in regards to my "open source skills" and helping
me learn more about feminist and women's roles and organizations in the
open source community. She's also great to share a bottle of wine with.

Congratulations Sumana! We'll be watching (pressures on!)

-Sarah
