I tried telling them to clean the cookies and it didn't help; i tried it myself, and it doesn't help me either. BTW, next time a static link to the survey would be useful. Some Wikipedians had problems seeing the banner. Either they missed it or they disabled banners via vector.css (and forgot about it). Deleting cookies isn't easy for everyone as well. I suggest making a mini-Extension with a special page that automatically redirects to the survey (or alternatively lists all surveys and links to them). Then we (the unofficially appointed Editor Survey ambassador) could just point people to that page. Regards, Tobias That's a great idea! I've seen the same problem you describe (although after the survey had ended).

[Foundation-l] Reminder: IRC office hours this Thursday, April 28th at 17:00 UTC
This will be happening shortly. -- Forwarded message -- From: Steven Walling swall...@wikimedia.org Date: Tue, Apr 26, 2011 at 11:16 AM Subject: IRC office hours this Thursday, April 28th at 17:00 UTC To: foundation-l@lists.wikimedia.org Hi everyone, Just a quick heads up that Sue will be having one of her regular IRC office hours in #wikimedia-office this Thursday, April 28th at 17:00 UTC. Instructions about how to join etc. are on Meta.[1] As for topics, we were thinking that it might be nice to talk about our continuing research at the Foundation on new editor retention. Other topics (Perhaps Wikimania submissions since the deadline is impending?) are welcome too. We look forward to chatting!

[Foundation-l] 2010 Picture of the Year Competition
Dear Wikimedians, Wikimedia Commons is happy to announce that the 2010 Picture of the Year competition is now open. We're interested in your opinion as to which images qualify to be the Picture of the Year for 2010. Any user registered at a Wikimedia wiki since 2010 or prior with more than 200 edits as of 1 January 2011 (UTC) is welcome to vote. Check your eligibility now.[1] If you meet the criteria, you are able to vote. Nearly 800 images that have been rated Featured Pictures by the international Wikimedia Commons community in the past year are all entered in this competition. From professional animal and plant shots to breathtaking panoramas and skylines, restorations of historically relevant images, images portraying the world's best architecture, maps, emblems, diagrams created with the most modern technology, and impressive human portraits, Commons features pictures of all flavors. For your convenience, we have sorted the images into topic categories. Two rounds of voting will be held: In the first round, you can vote for as many images as you like. The first round category winners and the top ten overall will then make it to the final. In the final round, when a limited number of images are left, you must decide on the one image that you want to become the Picture of the Year. To see the candidate images just go to: http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Picture_of_the_Year/2010/Galleries Wikimedia Commons is interested in hearing your opinions on our featured images of 2010. The deadline for first round voting is the 4th of May at 23:59 (UTC).
