Rough approximation using only the top 100 users. Only a very few of them have filled the gender parameter, so, it is not a good approximation:
* [[User:Emijrp/Gender gap/English Wikipedia|/English Wikipedia]]: 1 woman per ~9 men
* [[User:Emijrp/Gender gap/French Wikipedia|/French Wikipedia]]: 0 women
** 0 ? Really ? :) [[User:Anthere|Anthere]] ([[User talk:Anthere|talk]]) 00:42, 16 March 2011 (UTC)
*** Yep, nobody in the [[User:Emijrp/Gender gap/French Wikipedia|top 100]] is defined as "female" : ) (but obviously there are some of them).
