All the third-party reliable-source coverage that things like petitioning 
Amazon to stop selling his “work” generates.

[Gendergap] Amazon petition

2015-08-21 Thread Neotarf
Does anyone know anything about these petition things?  I usually ignore
them, but this one is...strange. And how is this guy, with a self-published
blog and self-published books, notable enough for a WP article, when a list
of black PhD's gets deleted?

[Gendergap] Wikiconference...Re: Signpost article on "English Wikipedia's misogynist infopolitics..." etc...

2015-08-21 Thread Carol Moore dc
Glad to see a lot more submissions since they started ADVERTISING it on 
top of Wikipedia pages! Two for women so far...


We had a discussion of doing one on legal options of dealing with 
harassment at last local Wikimedia salon but for various reasons not 
coming together. Though if someone wanted to add that topic to an 
existing workshop, some relevant names of speakers were discussed.


My favorite idea was to have a famous keynote speaker who is known as an 
expert in online harassment, including especially of women. Someone who 
would be a real wake up call to the the anti-GTTF gang...


But will suggest to organizers privately :-)

a section on D&D is all you need to know about wikipedia.

i see no mention on Red Scare; Sputnik; or
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/New_York_Society_for_the_Suppression_of_Vice

needs a complete rewrite, but won't be happening any time soon.
