Wikipedia:Equity lists/Ethnicity

Ethnicity
There are currently ~16,500 values to describe non-fictional ethnic groups on Wikidata. There are +80,000 with fictional ethnicities included. As with everything on Wikidata, the community works to standardize property usage and values. The values the community uses are not well defined since data comes from several different sources and ethnicity data is, in general, a complicated concept. Wikidata is a global project so local understandings of race and ethnicity are conflated and varied. Additionally, many Wikidata items lack ethnicity statements that could have them. Additionally there are several Wikidata items that don't have Wikipedia articles in English or other languages. The following queries will reveal these gaps. The table below generates a list of people who have articles in non-English versions of Wikipedia who also have ethnicity statements. Please note that this list is not comprehensive - it loads the first few hundred results, so you will not see all ethnicities represented. We will work to add lists of specific groups as we can.
 * Ethnic group (P172) - Property usage count ~111,000
 * A list of values (which term(s) does Wikidata use to describe ethnicity) - this query results in ~16,500 values, many of which have very low counts. Note: values corresponding to fictional characters have been removed
 * Report for ethnicity statements lacking a reference
 * Link to property discussion - Tracking ethnicity is inherently problematic. Participating in discussions about its usage will improve its use on Wikidata
 * Graph for ethnic groups on Wikidata - this graph shows how Wikidata has organized ethnic groups. The results are presented as a graph rather than a table (you can see the table version here)
 * Query for Wikidata items with an ethnicity statement without an English Wikipedia article
 * PSID - 24677598
