gendered, martial law

Wikipedia Contributors Are Mostly Men
Sex and the City has two entries detailing its characters. The Simpsons has 45. Is Wikipedia gendered?


The struggle this time is ferocious. The assumption is that one contestant, the party's reform-minded general secretary, Mr Zhao Ziyang, faces certain defeat. He has not been seen since he visited the students in the square on May 19th—the day before Mr Li and President Yang imposed martial law on parts of the capital. But by June 8th Mr Li had been seen only twice since martial law began. Neither President Yang nor Mr Deng has been seen since the all-but-forgotten summit with Mr Gorbachev in mid-May. The one big clue in the political fight came early this week: the Supreme People's Court addressed its praise for the "essential" military action of June 4th to the Standing Committee of the Politburo in general—and to Mr Qiao Shi in particular.
