Wow, I was a member of the Facebook Group “Wikipedia Women” for about 15 minutes, but they didn't even give me a chance to say Howdy.

I somehow missed that the "gendergap" list was a Wikimedia-controlled mailing list.

In any case, one of the problems I'm seeing in the analyses I'm seeing of the "problem" is that nearly all of them are from people who suffer from monotaxocausophilia. I suppose they're either seeking a boogeyman to blame, or are trying to find the Minimum Necessary Change required to Make It All Better.

I think it's obvious that there really is a problem with woman being infantilized by infantile men. That phenomenon precedes Wikipedia, of course. But the Wikipediot answer to the problem of men infantilzing women is to create a crèche where women can infantilize each other.

Of course, there's nothing very novel about that either. Which is why wiki-feminism looks so much like Wiki-Phyllis Schlaflyism.
