Hi All,
I recently received a Wikimedia Individual Engagement Grant (IEG) to continue research re: the gender gap. As a part of the IEG, I'll be attending Wikimania in London this August, and I'd love to start scheduling interviews to take place during Wikimania.
You can review my IEG proposal herehttps://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Grants:IEG/Women_and_Wikipedia, and you can take a look at my project plan for the work I've been doing since January (16 interviews completed thus far; thanks to all who have helped) herehttps://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Research:Women_and_Wikipedia.
My primary goal is to interview en.wikipedia editors who self-identify as women, but I'd also love to talk to editors who edit other languages and who do not self-identify as women. Please note: I want to collect a diverse range of stories and voices, so please consider!
You can reach me via amending@uw.edu or via Mssemantics on en.wikipedia and meta. I haven't booked my travel arrangements yet, so my schedule for interviews is pretty flexible.
Best, Amanda/Mssemantics
I was busy multi-tasking and didn't notice my typo below: My email address is amenking@uw.edu. :)
Thanks!

I assume that "and who" meant "or who"? :) It would make little sense to exclude non-en.wiki editors who self-identify as women.

Yes, Nemo, you¹re right! I make a lot of mistakesŠ every day. :)
