+1.
Here are some more questions that I would be interested in having answers
to:
-- What do women who are presently editing find most demotivating about
contributing to Wikipedia?
-- Have they ever thought of throwing in the towel, and what were the
reasons?
-- Based on past experience, what aspect of Wikimedia/Wikipedia culture
would be most likely to cause them to stop editing at some point in the
future?
-- What change, if any, would they welcome most to feel good about
contributing?
You'd need a male control group for comparative work, to establish whether
any of the answers are gender-specific.
Crossposted to gendergap list. (Maybe someone with access to the research
mailing list might like to crosspost this thread there as well.)

How. Why. I would love to know
the answer to these questions. Also, for those who aren't active - why?

Are there any surveys of active female editors
which have asked how
they started editing?
