If you're rewriting wiki software, please add
gender-dependent
user page names and other messages, so that we don't have to use
male prefix for female users in languages where it matters.
(Wikipedysta: Wikipedystka:)
But make it optional, otherwise that's equivalent to requiring from users to
disclose their sex; not that much private data, but still ... until now no
personal information whatsoever was required.
It's not particularly private information if the language requires disclosing it
every time you want to produce grammatically correct sentence.
