Hi Jaime, and everyone,

+1!

That would definitely be useful for me as well. Since the education
programs I work with are relatively small, we can usually suss out some
data informally or through surveys — but it would be great to be able to do
more than say X number of our participants are women. Saying X amount of
content is from female editors, and being able to do more data analysis
that Jaime mentioned would be awesome and could help inform decisions we
make about Wikipedia Education Programs in the future :)
