Re: [Wiki-research-l] Number of registered editors per country

2020-08-23 Thread Su-Laine Brodsky
Hi Thomas,

This isn’t quite what you asked for, but the editor survey from 2018 might be 
helpful:

The survey responses will be skewed towards more active editors, but depending 
on how you want to use the information that might be OK. 

Best wishes,
Su-Laine
