Wonderful to start with the individual. And family can have a lot to do with who we become. I kept my father's surname. My mother is a Kafka. Franz is a cousin. People think I'm dark and hyperverbal? Ha! ;-) Keep on keeping on you awesome human you!

A song I wrote and recorded around 20 years old thinking about my parents and life on a grey lonely day. My mother saw me play it live and cried. So for the honor of her memory I offer: "Wrapped in Grey" #MothersDay soundcloud.com/molly-e-holzs…

This just makes @Wikipedia a product of the Web as an extension of humans at their best, worst and everything in between. These are course-correctable through communication and clarity. No matter the personal and social issues, that it is the go-to for Web users at large matters.

The more I look at how @Wikipedia actually works, a shift in my thoughts about how and why there's such a love/hate in the industry are clarifying. Its system design and rules read like W3C specs of old. It is biased. It asks for ethical boundaries people will inevitably ignore.

A sincere and heartfelt thank you to all the wonderful folks who responded to my Wikipedia bio woes of both personal and social divisions related to gender, race and identity. @WikiWomenInRed deserves an ovation. @pigsonthewing @metablog and so many others: Thank you so much.

Absolutely. And that is to me not an ideal, but it's not a situation where anyone if forced into participation via browser tricks. People don't want to participate in the content model, they don't have to. Otherwise, I'd be a little more snarky. Hey, want an apple? I have two ;-)
That is really good to know! I've done it long form for too long and with a Ph.D. program on my horizon I'm gonna have to do it long form again. Tools FTW!
How do we collect so much stuff in life? I'm in a constant state of both downsizing and finding more crap. It reminds me of the classic George Carlin schtick about "stuff" which remains relevant and hilarious! #SaturdayFun #LaughForHealth #georgecarlin youtube.com/MvgN5gCuLac

All things considered I'm far better off than almost anyone in statistical history with such a rare issue. Largely due to the brilliance of one Oncology/Hematology Godess who is both a real medical scientist and incredible clinician. SO LUCKY. And it is what it is. Deadly. Awful.

LOL! Thanks Tom! Hey, how's that incredible plan of yours going or has it halted and caught fire by viral proxy? I hope you are still inspired to make that trip happen. It seems it would be utterly transformational. xo/m

And now, Andy "Pigs On The Wing" you Pink Floyd earwormed me (a good thing in this case!) "You know that I care / What happens to you And I know that you care / For me too So I don't feel alone / Or the weight of the stone Now that I've found somewhere safe / To bury my bone."
Wikipedia wants photos and titles. I have photos and titles. The two titles that get attention are #webDev or #selfie if taken in the last few years where I am 145 pounds lighter and look younger. Web validates hard work. 145 pounds gone in <2 years validates what? SO over bio.

NOT ethical but it is done. I think this is about an entirely different issue regarding nothing to do with being ack'd for one part of my life others prefer. Pics and titles can lie. I have proof!
The glib response is for a human to not be noise requires a title? That's like asking "what do you DO". One thing is never just one thing.
Replying to @mholzschlag
The glib answer is yes we will have the thousands, but without titles etc its just noise. Could you sort out dozens of leading women with titles? "upload file" at "wikimedia commons" and see us woo hoo when you tell us. We think Pics inspire editors & readers.
