**What are your goals? How will you use this data or analysis?**
We are looking for some up to date metrics to use them as part of a training around inclusive leadership. We need basic metrics that could speak about the importance of our mission and our work.
This is for T&C's Leading with Inclusion workshop for managers that will also be part of a series of live workshops for individual contributors during this year.
**What are the details of your request? Include relevant timelines or deadlines**
(note: the metrics listed below would be helpful in illustrating how important it is to build inclusive leadership practices so that we can reach our vision of every single human freely sharing in the sum of all knowledge, but they can be replaced with other metrics if these can't all be updated)
Find some of this metrics up to date to 2020-2021 (this information was gathered from Katherine Maher's talk here: ttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ESVQknHESuA)
**Metrics - Changing World**
- Our vision calls for every single human to freely share in the sum of all knowledge
- Wikipedia is really big in Russia - we get about 1 billion page views every single month
- Huge in Japan - it’s the second largest Wikipedia in terms of traffic
- We’re also widely popular in Germany (80% of German users use Wikipedia on a regular basis)
- These represent some of the biggest and most vibrant of our Wikipedia’s
- And yet in 30 years, they also represent the places where populations are declining around the world.
- By 2100 the population of the continent of Africa is going to be around 4.4 billion.
- By contrast, by 2100 the population of the entire world will be just over 10 billion.
- Which means the population of Africa will be roughly half the population of the entire world.
**Where’s Wikipedia on this?**
- Only 2.2% of our page views come from this continent
- Only 2.5% of the content on English Wikipedia has anything to do with the African continent - its geography, its people and its history
- Outside of English we have an even bigger distance to make up
- The largest of the solely African languages in Wikipedia is Yoruba
- Yoruba has about 32,000 articles despite having 30 million speakers
- Another enormous African language is Hausa which is spoken widely across West Africa - by 44 million people - and has only 1400 articles
- One Wikipedia that you would think is incredibly large, Arabic Wikipedia, has only 450,000 articles for 420 million speakers
- Really big gap between where we are today and where we need to go to meet our vision statement of every single human
