Résumé

Wikipedia is a multilingual encyclopedia created in January 2001 and existing in almost 300 languages. At the end of 2017 it ranked number 5 in the ranking of the most visited pages, reflecting how in a few years it has become very important. Editors are volunteer from around the world, but most of them are male, which generates a biased view of reality. Already in the early 2000s this gender gap began to be studied, and despite the efforts of the Wikimedia Foundation, this difference has been maintained. To know if there is a gender gap when we access to the Internet and Wikipedia, in this study we have applied a mixed method, using a designed questionnaire and validated ad hoc, completed by 1,173 university students of Education in Spain, a discussion group in the Faculty of Education of the University of Barcelona and interviews to expert users of the Wikipedia. We found that there are no gender differences in Internet access, consultation and knowledge of Wikipedia, however, men give more importance to Wikipedia for their studies, and edit much more than them.
