No need to edit it out, this is the most important point here. Wikipedia is being controlled by an army of neckbeards. If women were in charge you wouldn't see the kind of toxic pedantry and bickering the is prevalent on Wikipedia today.

The most important step we could take to improve Wikipedia would be to make the community more friendly to would-be female editors. And the only way that is ever going to happen is by first getting the misogynist neckbeards out.
