Hello,

I’m with a group of researchers https://grouplens.org/ working on using Artificial Intelligence (AI) tools to promote gender diversity in Wikipedia contents and thus to close the gender gap https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gender_bias_on_Wikipedia. We want to build a recommender system that targets the gender gap in content, while creating personalized article recommendations for editors. To ensure that our tool addresses real community issues, we plan to design the recommender algorithms by incorporating the feedback from stakeholders in the community, such as members of the WikiProject Women in Red, related WikiProjects, and others who are concerned with this issue. We want to understand your concerns and values as we come up with effective algorithmic designs.

For more details about our project, please refer to our Wikimedia project meta page https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Research:Closing_the_Gender_Content_Gap_in_Wikipedia .

If you are interested or have any thoughts and suggestions, please feel free to reach out to me at bowen-yu@umn.edu and we can plan a time to connect. Thanks!
