| A Wikimedia committee has posted a ] which, while it contains language about respecting the diversity of community members and condemning hate speech that appears in vandalism, does not appear to prohibit or otherwise mention racism, sexism, homophobia, or other forms of prejudice outside of vandalism and direct insults (in the English version, at least.) It does concern itself with, for example, defining repeated sarcasm as a form of harassment. In the ] containing summaries of committee meetings the words "racism", "sexism", and "homophobia" also do not appear. (In the English version.) | |||

| Perhaps there is a good or practical reason for this; I'm not personally familiar with the high-level Wikimedia policy development process. But the ] closes on October 7, after which the drafting committee will submit its recommendation to the Wikimedia Board of Trustees, so I am placing this message in this talk page in the hopes of ensuring that editors who can comment constructively on the absence of language providing guidance on non-insult, non-vandalism expressions of prejudice get a chance to comment. --<span class="unicode" style="color:black;text-shadow:0.1em 0.1em 0.1em #777777">]</span> 19:41, 28 September 2020 (UTC) | |||

| :The draft code doesn't mention sexism, racism, or homophobia directly but these are covered in the wording as I understand it: <blockquote>'''Insults''': This includes name calling, using slurs or stereotypes, and any attacks based on personal characteristics. Insults may refer to perceived characteristics like intelligence, appearance, ethnicity, race, religion, culture, caste, sexual orientation, gender, disability, age, nationality, political affiliation, or other characteristics. In some cases, repeated mockery, sarcasm, or aggression may qualify as insults collectively, even if individual statements would not.</blockquote> | |||

| Hi everyone I wondered if the insertion of DOB for women may present a form of gender imbalance in that women are more likely than men to be the victims of ageism and accompanying discrimination, and may prefer not to have their ages registered on wikipedia? Is there any option for the subjects of articles to request that their age is occluded, for this reason? | |||

| Greta Thunberg's article starts with the Mental Health section. There is a discussion about whether it is appropriate, as the typical WP pattern for health disclosure is at the end of the article under the Health Section. Many prominent male figures had mental conditions that began to appear in childhood, but their articles do not start with the section titled Mental Health. I am yet to see another article on a well-known person (not a mental health advocate) that begins with the section titled Mental Health. However, if it exists, it doesn't appear objective. Please provide your inputs if you are interested to discuss this in her "talk" page. | |||

| : Thanks for the note. I can see both sides here - it's an important part of her early life, which is naturally the first section of the article, and it does naturally flow into the discussion of the activism, yet, yes, it does tend to throw shade at it. I think your suggestion of removing the subsection heading is a good compromise, it's otherwise a 2 paragraph section, we can live without it. --] (]) 18:57, 7 December 2020 (UTC) | |||

Pan IBJJF Jiu-Jitsu No-Gi Championship
If this project is active, then any interested parties can see Pan IBJJF Jiu-Jitsu No-Gi Championship, my recent diff, and the edit I made to the talk page there. I haven't the time to fix this example of gender bias at the moment, but if someone else wants to counter it, then feel free. What better way to subliminally tell women they don't matter than not listing their accomplishments when we do list the males? Many thanks. Biosthmors (talk) 16:25, 14 March 2024 (UTC)
The talk page here is fairly moribund (at least when compared to something like WT:MED). This despite 186 members being listed. It didn't take long to scroll down to reach the deceased User:SlimVirgin in the history. May God rest her soul. Maybe someone can cross post this to gendergap@lists.wikimedia.org ? What explains the inactivity here? Any thoughts User:WhatamIdoing? I'm not a cultural expert, but I wonder if there's any waning of identity politics playing a role. Years ago, there seemed to be such buzz around the topic of "closing the gender gap." Is actually closing the gap just thankless, unpleasant, and never-ending work? Have "thought leaders" and/or WP:WMF leadership ideologically meandered elsewhere? Or am I just posting at the wrong spot?! Biosthmors (talk) 16:48, 14 March 2024 (UTC)
- I updated the list. Two-thirds of the editors have been on wiki some time during the last year or so. I think this page might have reached the end of its natural usefulness, due to the creation of Misplaced Pages:WikiProject Women in Red.
- For this particular article, I would ask for help at Misplaced Pages:WikiProject Martial arts. WhatamIdoing (talk) 21:33, 14 March 2024 (UTC)
- Many thanks WhatamIdoing! Biosthmors (talk) 01:20, 15 March 2024 (UTC)
