For ULAN on Wikidata, 477 out of 36,633 are neither male nor female. Two of those have a non-M/F gender assigned. Statistics on those small numbers would essentially be meaningless.

Claudia, Unfortunately there would be no way to differentiate those artists from the Wikidata items that are currently missing the gender property. Plus that would only include modern artists, as everyone who appears in the external databases that were born before 1900 have already been assigned a gender whether it's one they would have accepted or not.

Hi all, I am compiling some stats regarding the work done on the
Art & Feminism
edit-a-thons for my local chapter and while checking the
state of the wikis
regarding female artists I noticed that there are huge
local differences
per language wiki regarding "who is notable". One of the
things I love
about Mix-and-Match is the way you can easily check the
sitelinks per wiki.
You can also download the data with autolist to see
which biographies are
popular across different languages. I noticed that in
the case of women
this seems to be way different than for men. Women
artists are more likely
to be notable in one or two languages only, possibly
because they travel
less, making their art known more locally than otherwise
- who knows?
In any case, here is something to chew on:

I wish we had more databases from more countries that
only contain artists
that we could load into Mix-and-Match!
