Summary/Abstract: This paper will present the methods and challenges of a collective and interdisciplinary research project (Wikif) which aims to understand how the issue of women scholars’ biographies is approached and taken into account on the collaborative encyclopedia Wikipedia. First, we will introduce the context of the gendered inequalities on the French speaking Wikipedia. We will then explain how the mixed methods we used in this project are relevant and complementary and how we have associated different remediation interventions to it.
