Wikipedia includes more biographies of women than any other encyclopedia.
Part of the written output for “reader-sourcing” is created from the shared
record of reading behavior.

This paper present work in progress on a technique called “reader-sourcing”
for creating
Wikipedia content and recruiting new editors at scale.
In reader-sourcing, reading behavior and survey answers from many readers
are archived and computationally generated into content
Google+ structure:
Account: Wikipedia
The Passing on system, developed in April 2013, takes input from news data
sources and archives reader behavior to a database for inclusion into
Wikipedia articles.
When users select a topic, Passing On shows a report of all obituaries
returned by the query, color-coded by that person’s presence in Wikipedia
(as determined by other users) and the state of information collected by
other users.
Thanks,

Hello,
We just released some infographics based on a survey (and some other
statistics) on Swedish Wikipedia.
Could this be reshared by @wikipedia and/or @wikimedia on Facebook targeted
to Swedish speakers?

Check out the results from the ninth #PictureOfTheYear contest! View
them at http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Picture_of_the_Year/2014/Results
(taken from the suggested tweet text in the share link on the linked page)
Perhaps someone else has time to write up a FB/G+ text.
Not sure about the POTY team's announcement plans, but this is already
running in a site notice on Commons. Would make a great blog post of
course as in previous years

Wikipedia is probably "the most viewed medical resource globally",
according to this new study.
Wikipedia's medical content is supported by more than 950,000
references and was viewed more than 4.88 billion times in 2013.
