Hey :) forwarding a nice overview
Cheers Lydia ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Florence Devouard <[email protected]> Date: Wed, Mar 8, 2017 at 2:01 PM Subject: [Wikimedia-l] Occupation of Women on WikiData To: [email protected] This is a tool done by Envel Le Hir using WikiData and published today. I actually inspired him the idea during a conference, when talking of my desire to get generic data about women professionnal occupation. My main argument is that I felt many of the added biographies about women were about actors, singers, or football players. Much less about politicians and business. But it was a "guess" and I wanted more hard data. And apparently... he got busy http://tools.dicare.org/gaps/gender.php Ok. Hard data (1950-2005 birth dates): * 80% of the biographies of porn actors are about women. * 98.3% of beauty pageant contestants are about women. * 24% of politicians are about women * 8.4% of computer scientists are about women. Or ... In Algeria... the more popular occupation of women by far is... Volley Ball ! In France... actors. And in Guinea... well... hard to say... only 17 biographies about Guinean women anyway.
