| When I first joined Misplaced Pages, I did it for the women hockey. It in its own way, became writing therapy for me in the sense that I was able to write about what I loved.

| The rape culture page has come under fairly intense scrutiny lately (this isn't necessarily a bad thing). Since it's important to discuss violence against women on that page w/r/t rape culture (duh), and since editors doubt the existence of rape culture (or require more neutrality), it's become difficult to edit. Has anyone been following the recent case in NYC, where two cops were complicit in the rape of a drunk woman, yet were ? And there's a good op-ed . I guess I'm asking to keep your eyes open for more sources that discuss the case through the lens of an overarching culture of violence/obfuscation of violence, or to just help edit the page. If this is the wrong spot to post this, please let me know. --] (]) 14:31, 29 May 2011 (UTC) | |||

Geena Davis Institute article
Hello! I'm Robin, posting here as part of my work for Beutler Ink on behalf of the Geena Davis Institute. I've disclosed my conflict of interest on the article Talk page and on my User page.
I'm looking for help improving the article, which has become a bit overly detailed and self referential. You can see my proposed changes here. The version I've proposed brings it back to focus on secondary sourcing. I'm posting here since the article is listed within this WikiProject's scope. Thanks for taking a look. Cheers!

Marie Curie
If Maria Skłodowska-Curie, commonly known as Marie Curie, wanted her surname to be Skłodowska Curie and her page should reflect that. It is only her common name because of sexism and xenophobia. See a further discussion here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yzY5m_5ki0c Enfyslemle (talk) 07:32, 23 October 2024 (UTC)
- @Enfyslemle, I understand the want to correct for historical injustices, but as an encyclopedia our role is to reflect sources, including when they change their stances on such things. It is our duty to inform readers about the world and how it is viewed as it is, not as what it should be. I recommend you take a look at why we can't right great wrongs. If you feel there are times this position further hampers marginalized voices, I would submit that it at least also protects them at a far greater rate. Remsense ‥ 论 07:37, 23 October 2024 (UTC)
