15,000 female biographies on Wikipedia (very significant advance) in Basque

  • Wikipedia in Euskera has announced that, on International Working Woman Day, the number of female biographies has exceeded the barrier of 15,000 people. A year and a half ago the brand of 10,000 women was exceeded, with a significant increase, even in percentage, from 20% to 26% in biographies (6 years ago it was half today).

The Basque Wikilaris Association has published a poster with the 15,000 names in a large PDF. A fragmented image of this PDF is the one we paste here to illustrate the article (other parts of the image here).

Quantities of year and a half:

And the current ones in numbers and graphs:

Percentage:

  • total biographies: 57495
  • 15052 / 26.17 women
  • men 42408 / 73.75

They are also the result of a conscious effort by Basque wikilaris. In the last year and a half, they've created more female than male biographies. That is the way.

These statistics can be monitored through Wlikata searches. Link to all female biographies in Basque https://w.wiki/6Qy4 // And you will be provided with percentages and quantities based on gender https://w.wiki/6R9E

Likewise, in the percentage of biographies, we are well located compared to other wikipedias, as can be seen in the following table disseminated by the Spanish association of wikilaris:

In fact, the Basque country should be more advanced (26.1%). The first place corresponds to the Asturian Wikipedia, a project more recent than the Basque Wikipedia, which is working with clear criteria in the last few years.

Equip this data series with other information to Euskal Wikilarien Kultur Elkartea. See relevant tables and data in this thread.

Of course, you can join this effort of Wikipedia in Basque: edit Wikipedia and if you want to register with the Wikilarien Euskal Kultur Elkartea Cultural Association, with 5 euros a year is not the most expensive partner in the world.
