This is the first draft of an experiment that I plan on running to test a hypothesis I came up with recently. The question I had, and am trying to answer is: "Do readers want more articles on Women in STEM, or would they prefer us to create other biographies?"

To measure this, I shall use page views from a set period of time across biographies created on a specific date. Here are my hypotheses.


 * H0 There will be no difference in page views between Women in STEM bios, and other bios.
 * H1 There will be a difference in page views between Women in STEM bios, and other bios.

To do list:


 * 1) Identify the correct statistical test to use.
 * 2) Pick a date to use as the creation date, and a date to measure page views.
 * 3) Gather a list of all biographies created on that date.
 * 4) Categorise them between "Women in STEM" and "Other".
 * 5) Gather the page views data and run the experiment.
 * 6) Write up the results.
