[WikiEN-l] Thank you, thank you!

2012-04-26 Thread Audrey Abeyta
Dear Wikipedia contributors,

We did it! For the past six weeks, you have all graciously tolerated my
emails requesting participants for my undergraduate senior thesis
projecthttp://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Research:Motivations_to_Contribute_to_Wikipedia
on
users’ motivations to contribute to Wikipedia. On Monday, I reached out to
this community, begging for just eighteen more participants to reach my
target sample size of 100 respondents. We not only reached that goal, but
exceeded it: 161 Wikipedia contributors responded to my questionnaire!

Your insightful responses are invaluable to my project and I cannot express
my gratitude for this community enough, so thank you, thank you, thank you!

When my final paper is written in June, I will make it available to the
Wikipedia community.

Thank you once again for your insight, thoughtful questions, and feedback.

Best,

Audrey

Dear Audrey

I only hope that we have provided you such an quality information on the
motivation of Wikipedians, you had expected, given that the readers of this
maillist are not necessarily just the most ordinary and so the most
representative users :).

I wish You good luck with your project
and best wishes

Petr (Reo) Skupa

[WikiEN-l] Notability of commercial organisations

2012-04-26 Thread Alan Liefting

This is a bit of a straw poll.
Is there a need to tighten up notability guidelines for commercial 
organisations?

Yes/No/Maybe?
