@SusunW and MauraWen: Seems we've run out of steam on this slightly, but I think there's enough here that we can move it out of draft. Just need to add a short lead. What do you think? – Joe (talk) 07:18, 8 October 2018 (UTC)

Joe, sorry, I've been really busy both on and off wiki for the last several months. Doesn't look like my life will be slowing down anytime soon. I think if we put it in main, others can work on it too. SusunW (talk) 14:31, 8 October 2018 (UTC)
@SusunW and Joe Roe:, I mentioned in an earlier post, that I found after the draft was started, that I was not comfortable working on such such a big article. I added a number of women archaeologists to the 20th and 21st century scientists lists in July and August. Like SusunW, I am working on other projects now both on and off wiki. The article is a good start. It is disappointing to read about the sexual harassment and sexual assault statistics, but not surprised. I'm glad that you added that information.

Sorry, I didn't intend to apply the thumbscrews to either of you! I've been snowed under too (or more accurately, sanded under). I just wanted to check with you before moving to mainspace. I'll sketch out a lead and do so now. – Joe (talk) 06:43, 9 October 2018 (UTC)
