It doesn't matter what your > gender is [...] but your audio-visual ability does matter because disabled users are currently unwelcome in code4lib's wiki and are called inhuman. In case you'd forgotten, there's a reCaptcha on the account creation page. If you access it with javascript disabled, it includes the Google-provided message "We need to make sure you are a human. Please solve the challenge below, and click the I'm a Human button..." The re should stand for replace, for that and the reasons Anonymous gives. Ideally, could it be replaced with some other protection(s), such as multi-step forms, email validation and/or human approvals? At least, could an email address be added to the account creation page and some nice instructions added to the wiki's "Help" link? > Mentee works for me, but The MIT program I referenced in an earlier > email uses the word "partner" instead. [...] Just as an aside: I didn't use mentee because it makes me think "liar". (FR/ES/PT/...: mentir = EN: to lie), but I expect that's just me.
