Gender by culture
This plot shows the number of gendered biographies of men and women in
Wikidata, by Culture .
culture is determined by using translating ethnic group, place of birth, and
citizenship into 1 of 9 world cultures as per Inglehart-Welzel map of the
world
with Mechanical Turk .
Then we take the consensus of the three aggregated variables. All aggregation
maps are available for inspection on
github .
As of January 2016, only about 65% of biographies, had culture, so this data is
incomplete.
