And when a wikipedian stops learning, (s)he leaves. The real question is what to do about it. For example, do we need a presence in Second Life so players can refer to Wikipedia without leaving the game?

MMORPGs are for long time places for socialization, too. We would for sure get some editors if it would be possible to edit Wikimedia projects from virtual environments. ___ foundation-l mailing list foundation-l@lists.wikimedia.org Unsubscribe: https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/foundation-l

Wikipedia has long been described as a specific form of MMORPG in some corners. It definitely involves a lot of grinding Wait, how do you grind on Wikipedia? Well, I guess fixing typos and reviewing new articles and recent changes would be examples. -- David Richfield e^(πi)+1=0 ___ foundation-l mailing list foundation-l@lists.wikimedia.org Unsubscribe: https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/foundation-l
