Hi all,

I ran a few quick updates on Max's numbers today. As of 9/6/14:

* WIkidata has ~2080k items marked as people
* Of these, ~1893k have a "gender" property (91%)

(Magnus's games are doing an amazing job at filling out these numbers,
by the way - http://magnusmanske.de/wordpress/?p=213 )

Very quick and dirty statistics follow - note that since we have 9%
undefined, the stats may change a bit as time goes on :-)

* The gender breakdown across all these people is approximately 1603k
male, 290k female - 84.7% male and 15.3% female.

* enwiki is 15.5% female; arwiki 14.2%; dewiki 14.9% female; frwiki
15.2%; eswiki 15.9%; jawiki 18.2%; hiwiki 18.7%; zhwiki 20.1%

* It's interesting to note that these numbers mostly seem a point or
two better than the numbers Max got a month ago, which probably
represents better data-logging rather than change in the underlying
content

* There are still very few items with a gender property other than
"male" or "female" - perhaps 100-200 overall - but I suspect this
number will significantly increase as we deal with the remaining
items.
