Really? I think you haven't thought this through Richard - (although as a bloke you could be wrong :-) ).
Women in Red was started because some felt that the lack of gender equality in Wiki was a problem caused by the low number of female editors. It was thought that we should encourage women to be editors because then they could address the gender disparity problem with articles. That didn't work, (as the WMF admit).
I'm pleased to say that we overcame this. Women in Red is roughly 50% of two of the genders. The monthly editathon in Edinburgh is led by a bloke. The three international editathons are led by a bloke. (Surely Womanthoogy can operate positive discrimination without our encouragement to only choose a woman editor.) It could be that some women editors want to edit stuff about tanks or fashion. My worry is that if we return to the idea that this is a woman's problem then we cut the active editors by at least half. Equality is our problem. 14% has become 17.5% in 2.5 years. That has been achieved by editors, not women.
Oh, and well done, WSF. I would suggest HistorianAlice or Jess if we insist that this is a woman's problem.
