Regarding the article (well done and interesting, thank you), there was a mention of the authors tracking "if the target was still contributing to English Wikipedia following the threat" but I didn't spot the followup in the article for any results to that .... Did someone else? Were actual stats reported?
Also, what seems like a related question, but again, was it brought up or did I miss it: if productivity is presented as an argument for accepting bad behavior, has anyone actually done any statistical correlation or tracking of content productivity of people who've used abusive terminology as compared to those who don't? Thanks, Mary

Dear all,
I found an interesting research done by Laura Hale about "Communicating on Wikipedia while female : A discursive analysis of the use of the word cunt on English Wikipedia user talk pages" on meta wiki. The link to the research page is here:

Hey,
I posted some new research to meta at
https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Research:Communicating_on_Wikipedia_while_fe... . It is titled: Communicating on Wikipedia while female A discursive analysis of the use of the word cunt on English Wikipedia user talk pages. Thought it might be of some interest to people on this list.
Sincerely, Laura Hale
