Checking the votes at
<https://vote.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?limit=1000&title=Special%3ASecurePoll%2Flist%2F392&dir=prev>
against the English Wikipedia database, shows an interesting
statistic. Of the 590 votes cast only *one* voter has an account
marked with their gender as female.

Obviously many people prefer not to use the user preferences on-wiki
to mark their gender, however it still seems a remarkably low figure
for a project which has a strategic objective to be welcoming to users
who identify as women.
