ّIn addition to what emijrp introduced (which is the best source I know, however with some systematic errors and miss-leadings) I would add two articles.

In http://journals.chapman.edu/ojs/index.php/e-Research/article/view/69/277 some results on english wikipedia based on following the IP addresses are presented.
In http://www.plosone.org/article/info%3Adoi%2F10.1371%2Fjournal.pone.0030091, an estimation of the location of editors based on the temporal features of editorial activity is given.

Sorry, the link I gave you has some tricky javascript and doesn't point to the correct section.

Try now http://stats.wikimedia.org/wikimedia/squids/SquidReportsCountriesLanguagesVisitsEdits.htm

You have edit and pageview info by country. Please, check carefully, these tables are complicated and sometimes you think you understand some numbers but they have other meaning. Study them deeply!

Hi!
Thanks for the link emijrp@gmail.com but I can only find editors per
language not per country: http://stats.wikimedia.org/EN/Sitemap.htm

This means that for English I will have editors from all over the
world, not only from the UK. I would need statistics for the UK and
France editors. Is this available somewhere?

I have a homepage where you can find more info about my research:

Grateful for any help!
Best, Alina
