Re: [Wikimedia-l] New portal about Gender Gap on meta

[Pete Forsyth]

Very nicely done, Florence and Alacoolwiki! It was indeed very out of date,
and it seemed scattered. The new page seems much more readable,
informative, and sustainable.

I added a couple of suggestions for small improvements on the talk page.

[Wikimedia-l] New portal about Gender Gap on meta

[Florence Devouard]

Hello everyone


u:Alacoolwiki  and 
myself worked on the portal page of the Gender Gap on meta.


Before : 
https://meta.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=Gender_gap&oldid=19889900

New : https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Gender_gap

Why ? The former page was very very outdated.
So first task was to clean it up, remove outdated info
Second task was to look for more recent data, do a bit of digging around.
Third task was to reorganize the whole portal. This was done along the 
same lines than the *Wikimedia Resource Center 
.

How you can help ?
Please note that the goal is not necessarily to have regular information 
being updated over there (because we do know it will not happen, right ? 
:)),
but to serve as a hub to link to all resources, groups, initiatives led 
within the community (and beyond). The current pages are by no means 
fully updated. Feel free to jump in and add.
Please do NOT drop links and be done with it. Have a _curated approach_ 
to make it useful AND practical.


In particuliar, I hope that gender-gap oriented groups will make the 
effort of adding their groups to the page listing them if it is found to 
be missing : https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Gender_gap/Groups


And I hope that people leading initiatives will add them here : 
https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Gender_gap/Initiatives



I hope it can be useful and better reflect the diversity of our 
mouvement and of the approaches we follow.


Last, I will outline that I am aware that the current design does not 
permit translation. I gave much thinking about that and, in light of 
former state of the page (very outdated) and former state of 
translations (very very weak...), I decided to favor design and 
useability :)



Cheers
