"text": "Bias statement Inequalities in how men and women are represented in Wikipedia titles can be captured by NLP models and translate into biased behaviors creating representational harms (Blodgett et al., 2020) . For example, if by default Wikipedia articles about national sports teams are about male teams, then a search engine might assume that a prototypical sportsperson is a man. Such a system when asked about famous volleyball players might exhibit recognition bias and return no women. Similarly, if Wikipedia provides special articles listing women photographers next to photographers, then an automatic knowledge extractor trained on such data might learn and propagate stereotypical generalizations that women within these occupations are an exception and should hold special qualities. Our work limits itself to binary gender values in extracting gender bias patterns from Wikipedia titles due to data scarcity. We acknow-ledge that not incorporating other values into our analysis indirectly causes recognition bias against non-binary people.",

"text": "Gender bias can be defined as a systematic preference or discrimination against people of a particular gender (Friedman and Nissenbaum, 1996) . NLP systems that exhibit such biased behavior can perform better for the favored gender, e.g., speech recognizers that achieve higher accuracy for male voices (Tatman, 2017) , or reinforce harmful stereotypes, e.g., social media platforms that misgender LGBT+ community members (Villaronga et al., 2021) . 1 Biased behaviors have (in-)direct origins in statistical patterns occurring in data that the NLP models are trained on (Sun et al., 2019) . Such patterns contribute to different types of biases, such as selection bias that comes with the gold-standard annotated resources, or semantic bias related to the information encoded in pre-trained word embeddings. As noted by Shah et al. (2020) , understanding the origins of observed biases is crucial in developing countermeasures for them. As a consequence, diagnosing what type of biases occur in the primary training data is an important initial step in this process.",

"text": "Wikipedia is one of the largest and most commonly used sources of training data for NLP models: it serves as unannotated data for pre-training word representations (Devlin et al., 2019) , a textual source for annotated corpora (Webster et al., 2019) , or treebanks (de Kok, 2014; Zeldes, 2017) . Wikipedia is also a community-based effort created by a predominantly male group of editors (Lam et al., 2011; Collier and Bear, 2012) . This homogene-ity of Wikipedia authors constantly raises the question of possible inequalities in ways that people of different genders are represented in Wikipedia articles (Callahan and Herring, 2011; Reagle and Rhue, 2011; Wagner et al., 2015; Konieczny and Klein, 2018; Schmahl et al., 2020, among others) . For example, Wagner et al. (2015) analyzed articles about notable men and women and observed systemic lexical and structural asymmetries, i.e., articles about women contain more family-and gender-related words, and more hyperlinks to articles about men than the other way around. In their following analysis, Wagner et al. (2016) showed that gender inequalities can be observed also on other dimensions, e.g., women have to be more notable to have their biographies than men. These patterns occurring in Wikipedia have been shown to directly influence NLP models, such as word embeddings (Schmahl et al., 2020) or relation extraction (Gaut et al., 2020) .",

In these languages, nouns and (thirdperson) pronouns have grammatical gender. Determiners and attributive adjectives agree with nouns. Reflexive pronouns, however, are not gendermarked. Polish, in addition, has gender agreement in predicative adjectives, and verbs in past and future tenses agree with the gender of the subject. English is a Germanic language that falls under natural gender languages. Almost all nouns are gender-neutral, but third-person personal pronouns are gendered. Turkish is a genderless language from the Turkic language family. There are no gendered nouns or pronouns in principle, exceptions are mostly loanwords (e.g. akt\u00f6r -aktris).

For this, we manually select a list of word indicators, i.e., words such as men or female, and search for titles that contain at least one of them (underlined words in Figure 1 ). Table 1 lists word indicators used for the filtering. We intentionally use plural nouns women and men and not singular woman and man for English, German and Polish, since we found that the latter predominantly occur in proper names, such as the movie title Scent of a Woman or the island Isle of Man. 3 Turkish, on the contrary, has both singular and plural forms, and heavily uses the singular form kad\u0131n which translates to women's and female in context, as well as the standard woman meaning.

In three out of four cases this constitutes around 1% of all the articles. German is an outlier here, with only 0.67% of the whole Wikipedia. One of the reasons might be the high frequency of compounds in German.

Another reason for German being an outlier might be the fact that it is a gender-marking language.

Instead, the gender of the subject is indicated by the suffix -innen.

Finally, for the last two groups M and W no clear pattern can be noticed at this stage; for two out of four languages M tuples are more frequent than W. Table 4 presents examples of English articles that fell into each of the six groups and their metacategories. Interestingly, our filtering method was able to find examples not only belonging to all the groups but also all the meta-categories (at this stage we leave out Other articles since they concern a variety of unrelated topics). We now investigate deeper each of the examples to see if we can notice any recurring patterns among them. We mark all discovered inequalities in red in Table 4.

However, Figure 2 demonstrates that Sports is not the only topic that is asymmetrically covered in Wikipedia. The second most frequent meta-category is Social, especially in the W group, followed by Lists, that although can be noticed for all the groups, are much more frequent for women than for men (cf. W|G vs. M|G and W vs. M). The asymmetrical M titles within the Turkish Wikipedia seem prominent with respect to other languages' distributions (although note that it is only 25 instances).

When a title in one language is edited after interwiki links are established between languages, it might cause a cross-lingual mismatch. At the time of writing, the pages for the Turkish national basketball teams are a W|G tuple: T\u00fcrkiye kad\u0131n mill\u00ee basketbol tak\u0131m\u0131 -T\u00fcrkiye mill\u00ee basketbol tak\u0131m\u0131.

However, interwiki links connect the page to its English counterpart which is titled Turkey men's national basketball team, that is, men indicator is explicit only on the English side. The Generic to Men mapping in titles depicts a cross-lingual mismatch. NLP tasks that would use this pair would fail to extract an exact translation. Following multiple interwiki links shows that approaches vary across languages, as summarized in Table 5 . Moreover, cross-lingual asymmetries in this article can be observed not only in its title but also in its content. The English page reads The Turkey men's national basketball team (Turkish: T\u00fcrkiye Mill\u00ee Basketbol Tak\u0131m\u0131) . . . , causing a Generic vs. Men inconsistency between English and Turkish names.",

In the specific case of La Liga, adding (men) to the title in parallel to its female counterpart would at least prevent the male generic bias. Title-content mismatches could be avoided if the content could be updated together with the title. Cross-lingual mismatches are the easiest to catch as there are Wiki bots designed for that purpose. 9 Among meta-categories, debiasing the Sports category is seemingly the simplest one. For instance, the Turkish Basketball Federation 10 symmetrically names national basketball teams by explicitly using kad\u0131n and erkek in their titles. The W|G inequality comes from Wikipedia editors. Inserting erkek to the Generic T\u00fcrkiye mill\u00ee basketbol tak\u0131m\u0131 (and updating the content consequently) would bring balance to this article tuple. However, sometimes the imbalance is actually in the real world. The International Cycling Union (UCI) 11 defines both cups and teams as W|G tuples, e.g., UCI Road World Cup vs. UCI Women's Road World Cup, and Wikipedia titles follow suit. After all, it is not wrong to take the actual name of a concrete entity. The next step is subject to a debate: Should Wikipedia editors continue to reflect the real world or should they already convert the title to Men and keep the existing Generic naming, perhaps with a redirection for search purposes?",
