Good morning, Wikipedia. In the Guardian writes historieforskaren Victoria Leonard about how it looks on the English Wikipedia. Between 84 and 91 per cent of editors are men, she writes, and ”not surprisingly” is 83% of the biographical articles on Wikipedia about the men. And if we continue sifferexercisen has 17.5 per cent of the 1.5 million texts have a focus on women.

the researchers, it is even worse. The author enumerates a number of pioneers in the classic research that you can read about on independent online forums and projects such as the #WCCWiki and ”Women in Red” that works with to pay attention to the women that Wikipedia ”lost”. Victoria Leonard, justifying the initiative: ”We can do sites online hederligare and more inclusive, places where women are allowed to make success and be perceived as successful. We just need to bring Wikipedia”.

so Far, of the men, about men, for men.
