Re: [Gendergap] Polish Wikipedia momument has two women
The WMF got a miniature of the monument as a gift from the organizers. You can find a photo of the miniature somwhere on commons :) Let me add that there was a discussion about the future of Wikipedia held at Collegium Polonicum (local university) just before the unveiling and we did talk about the gender gap (brief summary: the problem does exist, we are looking for solutions and reasons, women can be as good wikipedians as men etc - nothing new but I think that the fact that the discussion about the future of Wikipedia is opened with a discussion about the gender gap is worth mentioning).

[Gendergap] Study on Wikipedia's communication environment and gender gap
Apologies if this study has already been linked here. Barcelona Media studied emotion and dialogue on English Wikipedia article talk pages and published the paper Emotions under Discussion: Gender, Status and Communication in Online Collaboration in PLOS ONE. Among the study's findings was that female editors engage in relationship-oriented speech that is conducive to a positive working environment. I believe their conclusions also reinforce some of the initiatives at the Gender Gap Task Force. Particularly relevant is their conclusion that our results suggest that being able to involve more women and to give them more space in the community would also result in a virtuous cycle of female participation, through the creation of a communication environment where they feel more comfortable.

This is so interesting! I hadn't see it before. Thanks for sharing. Now I'm wondering what the overall emotional tone would amount to on wikiHow, in comparison... -- Krystle Community Support http://www.wikihow.com/User:Krystle http://www.wikihow.com/ On Mon, Oct 27, 2014 at 11:18 AM, o gobon...@gmail.com wrote: Apologies if this study has already been linked here.
