Care to elaborate? What are they missing?

The context for this discussion has data demonstrating that articles about women have more space dedicated to their relationships and families than articles about men.

That's it? They found that women are more visible than men on Wikipedia. Like the results where they find that woman are less central etc, the differences are rather small. Given that it's a 9:1 split in genders, you'd expect a bit more obvious results if that was the reason for the results and not e.g. society at large, which Wikipedia largely mirrors. And you'd especially not expect that women are more visible than men. Alas, if you so choose, you can of course interpret that as "the male gaze" and the patriarchal conspiracy keeping the women out of the spot light by ... putting them in the spot light.

It seems you focus on one small part of one study and make sweeping declarations about Wikipedia by and large.

That's not it. That's one example. Do you want a dissertation?
