Wikimedia launches worldwide survey The Wikimedia Foundation, the non-profit organization behind Wikipedia and UNU-MERIT (United Nations University - Maastricht Economic and Social Research and Training Center) last week launched a worldwide survey in an effort to understand who the readers and contributors of Wikipedia are, why they come to Wikipedia, and how they use it. The survey is being conducted in 20 languages and has so far resulted in more then 100,000 submitted questionnaires. Languages are English, Russian, Dutch, Vietnamese, Tamil, Spanish, Portuguese, Italian, Thai, Esperanto, Afrikaans, Chinese, Indonesian, Czech, Greek, Polish, Arabic, French, Japanese and German. The Collaborative Creativity Group at UNU-MERIT investigates the socio-economics of collaboration across all domains such as free content and innovation in collaborative communities. (UNU-MERIT)
