Talk:Women in computing
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Adding Meg Whitman? I would think that Bill Gates would be on a typical list of famous men in computer science. Or am I wrong about that? If not, it seems that Meg Whitman and other women in business related to computers belong on the list here of "famous" women. - SteveMetsker
[edit] =
one reads A report from the Computing Research Association indicated that the number recently fell below 20%, from nearly 40% 15 prior. [3]
which points to http://www.cra.org/statistics/ from where we can find http://www.cra.org/info/taulbee/women.html
which if you read it does not say about fall but the OPPOSITE!--Nkour 17:38, 7 November 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Merge
I don't feel that the content in Women, girls and information technology really belongs here. The decline of women's involvement in the computer and information technology field is a separate issue that's the focus of several studies. The focus of this article seems better suited to talk about famous women in the field and (perhaps) professional resources for the women that participate in it today.

- Concur - The article proposed for merger hasn't had the depth of editing and it seems to trivialize the impact and influence of professionals in this field who happen to be women.

- Do Not Merge - Separate topics. Do not merge. --lquilter 14:24, 5 January 2007 (UTC)
- After almost 2 months there have been no arguments to merge and everyone agrees to not merge. I removed the merge template from this and other page. --lquilter 14:29, 5 January 2007 (UTC)
[edit] List of famous women
I think this would be better in chronological order. Any comments?JulesH 14:49, 29 December 2006 (UTC)
