Gender Gap Through Time and Space: a Journey Through Wikipedia Biographies and the "Wigi" Index - scientific work related to Wikipedia quality published in 2015, written by Maximilian Klein and Piotr Konieczny.
Overview
In this study authors investigate how quantification of Wikipedia biographies can shed light on worldwide longitudinal gender inequality trends. Authors present an academic index allowing comparative study of gender inequality through space and time, the Wikipedia Gender Index (WIGI), based on metadata available through the Wikidata database. Authors research confirms that gender inequality is a phenomenon with a long history, but whose patterns can be analyzed and quantified on a larger scale than previously thought possible. Through the use of Inglehart- Welzel cultural clusters, authors show that gender inequality can be analyzed with regards to world's cultures. In the dimension studied (coverage of females and other genders in reference works) authors show a steadily improving trend, through one with aspects that deserve careful follow up analysis (such as the surprisingly high ranking of the Confucian and South Asian clusters).
