"the administrator Eric Corbett"
Doesn't the Atlantic have a reputation for not taking strong political stances on issues, like the Christian Science Monitor? If so, that gives the article more credibility, because the publication isn't trying to use the article to push an agenda.Midsize Jake wrote:It took a few months, but Mr. Vigilant's prediction of July the 12th, which I immediately agreed with, is finally coming to fruition. (I just felt like I should point that out, since about half of our predictions don't seem to do that for some reason and it's terribly frustrating.)
Wikipedians probably have some reason to hope that this story won't go much further up the MSM food chain than magazine sites like The Atlantic though, if only because Ms. Lightbreather is not willing to divulge her real name. The bigger the venue, the more they insist on that... Still, it's a black eye, and they had to know it was coming, but AFAIK their only counter so far has been a statement by one or two Arbcom members - which almost anyone reading a story like this will see as woefully inadequate.

She's saying that we all have long 4th fingers? That's the thing about the internet, you usually can't see people's hands and associated digit ratios, so it's hard to tell how much testosterone they're carrying around with them. Some of my women friends (as well as my wife) have 4th fingers that are longer than their index fingers, and yes they are, in general, more dominant, competitive, and athletic than the women (and men) I know with the opposite digit ratio. Could it be that most of us here have high 2D:4D ratios? Who would have known? If Lightbreather has a problem with the amount of testosterone present in WO, then there's not much we can do about that.greybeard wrote:Lest we pat ourselves on the back over this, note that on her blog, Ms. Lightbreather contemplates coming here to seek redress, then rejects that idea, stating that Wikipediocracy is "more testosterone fueled than Wikipedia".

My ring fingers are also quite a bit longer than my index fingers, but perhaps, just perhaps, that's not what Lightbreather was referring to.Cla68 wrote:She's saying that we all have long 4th fingers?
Lightbreather is an identity politics professional victim at their most grating — that's the basic problem.

Well, without defending her specific articulation, the problem seems like a real one. Of course the reference to testosterone is a metaphorical one, rather than literal.Cla68 wrote:However, if she believes our forum is dominated by sexism and intolerance, that's another matter and can be addressed.
While that is as may be, I think you should consider the possibility that it is the "uppity" people who bring these problems to light. The criticism that she is self-involved may be at once true and also not relevant to the underlying criticism.Randy from Boise wrote:Lightbreather is an identity politics professional victim at their most grating — that's the basic problem.

More like , though I suppose it's nice she's found a venue where people aren't tired of listening to her.
I note that she wheels out her claim to fame, being recipient of the ill-mannered and illiterate Eric Corbett quote, for the 12th time to another new audience.

Anyway, back on topic, do we really have a problem here with giving our self-identified female members a hard time?
That is an observably counter-factual and ludicrously wrong position, in general and on the Internet. What the fuck are you thinking?

Sarah had funding for an intervention that apparently had no (positive) effect. She and Paling suggest that she was let go because of sexism rather than because it was a waste of money and because she had damaged the WMF by writing propaganda for money, engaging in a real conflict of interest.“The 25-percent thing became a joke for anybody who was actively working in the gender gap,” said Sarah Stierch, who spent a year on contract with the Wikimedia Foundation to make the site more friendly to women. During her tenure, she helped to create programs that would encourage women to participate, like the Teahouse, a space for new editors to ask questions and find mentors. In late 2014, she was told her contract would not be extended.
Charles Sanders Peirce wrote: If the settlement of opinion is the sole object of inquiry, and if belief is of the nature of a habit, why should we not attain the desired end by taking any answer to a question, which we may fancy, and constantly reiterating it to ourselves, dwelling on all which may conduce to that belief, and learning to turn with contempt and hatred from anything which might disturb it?
the instinctive dislike of an undecided state of mind, exaggerated into a vague dread of doubt, makes men cling spasmodically to the views they already take. The man feels that, if he only holds to his belief without wavering, it will be entirely satisfactory. Nor can it be denied that a steady and immovable faith yields great peace of mind.
Good work, Wnt.Let's not forget that we can attack the fake-porn harassment from the far end. WMF should make a clear policy that it will not discriminate against any employee, volunteer, or editor based on whether he or she has appeared naked, whether in a fraud, "revenge porn", or legitimate erotica. By setting a standard that this is not a legitimate ground for discrimination, we can take away a bit of the power of people who try this kind of stunt anywhere, against any woman known or unknown, and move a little bit closer to the day when such harassment will never occur because people know it cannot be effective.

I see that Cullen328 (T-C-L) has become a Lightbreather basher. I think many of the men who carry-on about LB either disliked that she said critical things about guns and porn on WP, or she showed them the error of their ways when they tried attacking her or something she said.

The majority can't seem to figure out if they want to protect Eric, lambast Lightbreather for being 'difficult' or get into another scrap with one of their nemeses who showed up on the stalk page.
Cullen328 wrote:Doesn't the Bill of Rights of the Constitutution of the United States guarantee a right to "keep and bear arms", Lightbreather? And haven't the highest courts of the United States consistently interpreted that as an individual right? Everyone knows that the U.S. Constitution does not apply to other countries, but that certainly does not means that editors who understand and appreciate the Bill of Rights in the U.S. are incapable of editing articles about gun rights in other countries. I certainly hope that you do not oppose the Bill of Rights in the U.S. where it has applied for 225 years. Do you? 08:09, 3 March 2015 (UTC)
Lightbreather wrote:I certainly hope that you do not oppose the Bill of Rights in the U.S. where it has applied for 225 years. I cannot believe that you're questioning my patriotism. I proudly helped my dad get his SAR membership. My oldest son was in the HHC, 1st Batallion of The Old Guard. He helped to honor many veterans buried at Arlington. He fired salutes at one of Bush's inaugurations. My heart still pounds to remember being at the National Mall on July 4, 2000, as those guns fired to the 1812 Overture. He later served in Iraq, was nearly blown up by an IED, and came home - to my home - with PTSD. I'll thank you to never again question my love of country and what my family has sacrificed for her.
As for your lecture on the Second Amendment: Yes, the highest court ruled - in a split decision - that it gives individuals a right to own arms. But even uber-conservative [U.S. Supreme Court Assoc. Justice Antonin] Scalia, in delivering the majority opinion, wrote:
Like most rights, the Second Amendment right is not unlimited. It is not a right to keep and carry any weapon whatsoever in any manner whatsoever and for whatever purpose: For example, concealed weapons prohibitions have been upheld under the Amendment or state analogues. The Court’s opinion should not be taken to cast doubt on longstanding prohibitions on the possession of firearms by felons and the mentally ill, or laws forbidding the carrying of firearms in sensitive places such as schools and government buildings, or laws imposing conditions and qualifications on the commercial sale of arms. Miller’s holding that the sorts of weapons protected are those 'in common use at the time' finds support in the historical tradition of prohibiting the carrying of dangerous and unusual weapons.
But you'll rarely find the Wikipedia pro-gun crowd cramming that into the lead of gun-related articles. If you went by the lead in the many articles they've loaded with their RKBA BS, you'd think every man, woman, and child in the U.S. has the right to roll down the street in a tank with a rifle in one hand and a pistol in the other. Further, in the first section of these articles' bodies, you'll find quotes by Aristotle, Cicero, and Locke making it sound like every human on the planet has the right - perhaps even the duty - to be armed to the teeth. They might even go so far as to say (or to hint) that God himself wants all his children to be packing.
So, to reiterate what I've said before. My father owns guns. My brothers and oldest son own guns. My grandfathers owned guns. I've been taught to handle guns myself. I support the Second... but I believe the minority had it right in Heller (as do many), and even if I didn't, the majority in that decision made it clear that "well regulated" still means something. And my work on Wikipedia, when it comes to gun related articles, is to make sure that 2A arguments are not given WP:UNDUE weight, including but not limited to depth of detail, quantity of text, prominence of placement, and juxtaposition of statements. Anyone who thinks I'm trying to do anything else should consider an appropriate DR process, or keep their opinions to themselves. 16:49, 3 March 2015 (UTC)
A common intimidation tactic with the American gun crowd is playing the Patriot card, which Cullen tried to do here.Cullen328 wrote:Thank you for your patriotism and I greatly appreciate your son's service. I feel no need for any formal dispute resolution, but reserve the option to express my view on any manner pertaining to this encyclopedia. By the way, I certainly do not maintain that Second Amendment rights are unlimited. As a matter of fact, I personally favor universal background checks and have not owned a gun for decades. 20:56, 3 March 2015 (UTC)

I assume that the reason there are few women on WO is that there are proportionally fewer women on en.wp and those that are there tend to get in fewer prolonged dogfights on the dramah boards, on average, than the men.

You can't possibly mean a raw count comparison, as that would be practically impossible.
Lam et al wrote:H1a Gap-Exists and H3b F-Reverted-More indicate that females who become contributors stop editing Wikipedia sooner than males. Furthermore, both H3b F-Reverted-More and H3d F-Blocked-Less (reversed to F-Blocked-More!) suggest that females encounter more adversity in Wikipedia. Together, these data suggest that while females appear interested in becoming collaborators, they have more difficulty in making the transition for a variety of reasons.

Eric Corbett wrote:This "male privilege" thing is something I don't get at all. But here's one simple question the answer to which may help the mad-dog male editors such as myself. Assuming the claimed 16% of female editors is somewhere in the right ballpark, what effect has that had on WP's content? Or what would be different if it was 50%? 18:54, 4 September 2014 (UTC)

Eric Corbett wrote:Very little would be my answer. What are the topics that would be of more interest to females than males? But let's not misunderstand, I'm in no way against increasing the number of female editors if that can be done in a rational way, just as I'd like to see a lot more older editors. In fact my experience has been that female editors are often much easier to work with, not because they can be browbeaten – which they can't – but because they tend to be more thorough than males. 20:45, 4 September 2014 (UTC)
At this point Eric tried to change the subject to "repeated accusations that I'm some kind of monster misogynist."

Lightbreather wrote:Ignoring the personal attack, your arguments don't add up. You say the percentage of women editors on Wikipedia has no effect on its content. But you also say you want a broader mix of editors (more women would make a broader mix) because they bring "a broader mix of experience and opinion" - which implies they would improve the project's content. (You also say "they tend to be more thorough," which would also be an improvement.) But you couldn't care less whether or not more women are recruited. So you just want the increase to happen "naturally," considering that the present editing environment is healthy and welcoming to a broad mix of people. And you believe those (many women) who have different experiences and opinions on the matter than your own have their heads up their asses and are tilting at windmills. Dude, if this ever was true - and I doubt it - you and your compadres have become some very real windmills. If you don't mean to be, then please knock it off. 23:41, 4 September 2014 (UTC)

Lightbreather wrote:... As for assumptions here, on Wikipediocracy, the one I drew first, and not particularly quickly, was that men here talk with each other as they do on Wikipedia - as if there are no women around, or at least no women who complain about the agonism, or who maybe even are "cool" and join in. If you think it's not about gender, OK, but I do think gender is a primary component of the style that is endorsed here and on WP. And when that gets articulated, you (plural) get defensive.
Speaking only for myself, and let me reiterate that this is me speaking only for myself, I absolutely agree with what I think your point probably is here. Wikipedia's gender gap should be celebrated as an example of women not being as stupid as men - at least when it comes to how they spend their time online, anyway.Moral Hazard wrote:Civilians think that only crazy people would bother editing Wikipedia.
Why do people want to recruit women to edit Wikipedia?
Perhaps any gender gap, if it exists, should be celebrated as another example of women not being as stupid as men?

Decades ago, when I joined my first feminist group at Uni, I recall we used to say that we will not have equality before females are allowed to be as stupid as men.
On Wikipedia: we are very, very far from that stage.
There are similar examples of what could be put down in part to gender double standards.
