I don't really care about the results. It's obvious what they're going to be, and now it's a matter of principle. Where'd my money go? 3 years! The war of 1812 was shorter! Why is it taking so long?

If the Foundation is to be serious about closing the gender gap, it needs to start with metrics. For anyone who wants to see the 2011 survey, there are some links here: https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Research:Wikipedia_Editors_Survey_November_2011#Results I note the old survey does ask about age and education level, so maybe there will be some hard data for those who continue to suggest dumbing things down or making them cutesy in order to make WP palatable for women.Regards,

Subject: [Gendergap] Update on 2012 editor survey results
To: Increasing female participation in Wikimedia projects <gendergap@lists.wikimedia.org>Tilman Bayer has, at long last, responded to inquiries about the as yet unreleased gender split in the 2012 editor survey:Nearly two years ago, Tilman had said:---o0o---Beckie and I have been working on the data during the last few days, and we hope we can wrap this up soon. In any case, we still have the ambition of keeping the timespan between the conclusion of the survey and the publication of the first results shorter than in the preceding editors survey. Regards, Tbayer (WMF) (talk) 21:13, 4 March 2013 (UTC)---o0o---His recent posts to the talk page are his first contribution there since August 2013. He says,---o0o---[...] we plan to publish a blog post which alongside other results from the 2012 survey will contain a more solid analysis of the gender ratio changes, e.g. on a per-country basis [...]---o0o---Even so, we still do not have a schedule or date by when the results will be made available. Sarah (Slim) and I have asked him to provide one. I have also asked whether there are any plans for future editor surveys, and if not, why not.Watch that space ...Andreas
