I'm going to go out on a limb here, and suggest that WikiLove Kittens are
not empowering.

Well Jonathan, thanks for doing that! I am not an administrator, so I
couldn't do those things you mentioned, but I often think that in some
cases I wish I could do more than just "thank" the person. I know however

We talk a lot of about the culture of Wikipedia being negative, critical,
abrasive etc; this is a turn-off to a lot of women (and also to a lot of
