The 2023 Community Insights survey does not reflect that editors are getting older, in fact, it finds the opposite, that the youngest age group grew from previous surveys (https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Community_Insights/Community_Insights_2023_Report) And a newer independent survey from 2024 found 20% of users in the age group of 18 to 34.https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Research:Newsletter/2024/April On the other hand, it is probably likely that editors are getting older, if retention is good enough. Not sure I agree with the premises, unless there is other data
