Regarding the Wikipedia survey:
“A small minority of female Wikipedians report having unpleasant experiences”
I’m not sure I’d call 22% “small.”
“Just 4% of women editors in the sample said that they had been stalked online”
Slightly typo. I think instead of “Just”, instead what was meant was “Sweet Jesus, a shocking”.
I guess a reasonable takeaway is “Wikipedia isn’t as terrible as much of the internet,” but I hope for even better.
