Just like our online help pages. They're full of Wikipediababblespeak and not to the point. 6. More guides on how to do events. I have developed checklists and so forth for people. I know how much Wikimedians hate writing documentation, but honestly, I know for a fact that Wikipedians in Residency's have started because of the case study I wrote, I know for a fact GLAMs have done content donations because of the case studies I write, and I know for a fact that people have ready the case study I wrote about edit-a-thons and learned from it and done it. I make powerpoints and post them and encourage people to reuse them, and they do. It is also important to automate help. I have not seen much progress along those lines.

It's highly likely that the main contributors have been male and it might be nice to have women's input on the article. It's a highly viewed article - the first hit when you Google bikini - so it would be great to have everyone's input.
