Making Wikipedia Look Creepy
A common misconception held by the general public is that Wikipedia, the grand creation birthed from Jimbo Wales's forehead and midwived by Larry Sanger, is created, edited, and curated by misogynist frat boys, at best, and incels at worst, chasing away women, people of color, and anyone who wants actual change or progress. Actually... this may not be that far off.

Nevertheless!

If Wikipedia editors, admins, bureaucrats, and sockpuppets (The Community, as they style themselves) want to at least prop up a legitimate facade of inclusion and progressive thinking (and keep that lovely donor money flowing in), it behooves the contributors here to stop living the stereotype. Also, stop banning women editors or driving them away with sheer crassness, but that's another essay for someone else to write.

Examples
 * Anne Frank and sexuality
 * Inappropriate DYKs
 * Porn actor articles
 * Women's bios with PII
 * Bullying of Women editors
