What if we made a Google doc with more vague categories where dances could
self-report their attendance? Something like, a column for the state where
the dance is located, a column for 2015 average attendance, all done in
ranges of 1-50, 51-100, etc, and another column for 2017 attendance, with
the same ranges? I think that would be useful for purposes of knowing how
many dances are suffering declining attendance, and where those dances are,
but wouldn't give out enough specific information to make organizers queasy
about publicly releasing data.

For attendance, what I would love to see is dances
making their
attendance numbers fully public. Something like a googledocs
spreadsheet that anyone can view where you put in attendance numbers.
(I've advocated for this, internally to BIDA, for years
(unsuccessfully). We do have a sheet like this, but it's not public.)

It may be that the Organizers’ List for Shared
Weight may have this kind
of
data.

No, I haven't seen statistical analysis of this. Maybe it's worthwhile
for
this to be polled out to various dances.
Best regards,

Just getting back to this thread, lots to catch up on.
Jeff and Ron: You both seem like the statisticians here. Is there any
data
that reflects where in the country the LGBTQ
gender-free dances are and
where the communities that use gender-free terminology are?
Just curious.
Ron: When you say that local dances attendance is down is there data
about
that compared to dances where attendance is not
down? Again, looking for
information country wide or even geographic area.
Thanks
