Talk:Gender power gap

Contested deletion
This page should not be speedily deleted because this is a revised version that was created to address issues that were brought up on the first (now deleted) 'Gender power gap' article. Improvements have been made to match and uphold Wikipedia standards by improving the diction and angle of the article, to make it less OR and a duplication of other related Wikipedia articles. The Gender power gap is a relatively new term that has taken on more of a definition of its own, as its own usage in the ExecuShe/UN Women study context. Previous articles mention the angle of leadership and representation of women in board of director positions, but this definition expands to look more into the specific, quantifiable power (share values) that women in leadership positions possess. Not just whether a woman (by headcount) is in a position of power, but rather their power in relation to other sexes, positions, industries, or country. I believe the term warrants its own article and will show so in time as the phrase grows more and more in the near future. --Stablemushrooms (talk) 09:46, 28 April 2023 (UTC)


 * @Stablemushrooms though the term 'gender power gap' may be coined and got recognition relatively recently, I suppose concept among gender studies scholar is likely to be older one. May be if we search through google scholar we would get some material for creating a section devoted to 'the concept of Gender and power'. &#32;Bookku   (talk) 14:58, 4 May 2023 (UTC)

Draft acceptance
I have just accepted this draft because, in my view, the term, albeit recent, is well established and used enough to merit its own article. I also believe that in its current state it doesn't overlap more than it has to with either Gender representation on corporate boards of directors or Gender pay gap. I also find that the references are well presented and it doesn't read as being orignal research. I'm relatively new to AfC so I'd love to hear what, the users who participated in the AfD discussion, have to say about this. Cheers. Rkieferbaum (talk) 19:15, 13 September 2023 (UTC)


 * A quick once-over: it seems fine, perhaps a bit small-ish for such an important subject. I don't know if it's been reviewed at NPP yet (or if it has to be), but it seems fine as is. Oaktree b (talk) 19:19, 13 September 2023 (UTC)


 * It looks much better than the previous version. I have no objections. Joyous! Noise! 02:24, 14 September 2023 (UTC)
