Re: [WikiEN-l] Announcement: Survey study on the categorization of contributors to Wikipedia

Hi,

Thank you for your advise and (very interesting) material. The reason 
for not carrying out another survey is that I need more responses on the 
same questions and therefore I would like to ask the listmembers for 
help. I want to collect more than 50 responses for my survey (currently 
I'm on 32). When you don't agree with the anonymity question I could 
delete this question from the survey, but I really would like to ask the 
other questions of the questionnaire. My main focus is on the 
characteristics and the level of innovation of the Wikipedian (Diffusion 
of Innovation theory). I was curious if the notion of anonymity of the 
veteran Wikipedian would be different from the idea of a relatively 
'new' Wikipedian.

Regards,

Jeroen

 Hi Jeroen, you might also want to look at some of the forks of

 http://strategy.wikimedia.org/wiki/Proposal_talk:Get_rid_of_the_global_anonymity

 http://strategy.wikimedia.org/wiki/Proposal:Require_all_new_user_Accounts_to_start_as_anonymous

 The big questions that proposals to end anonymity tend to founder on are:

 1 How do you persuade good editors to go through an id verification
 process before they start editing?
 2 If you skip the verification process how do you avoid the scenario
 where you haven't dissuaded any of the trolls and vandals who will
 happily give you a false name, but you have lost a large part of your
 good editors?
 3 A lot of our editors are young. Some are very young. Is it ethical
 to encourage them to broadcast their identity on the Internet and
 create a permanent record of their adolescent views on many
 controversial topics?
 4 Wikipedia was largely written by anonymous authors, would it be
 ethical to disown them now and prevent them from being part of the

2011-02-20 Thread Bob the Wikipedian
Well, as far as anon veterans go, I can't think of any specific ones 
offhand (but that's mainly due to the anonymity of it all!) but I 
encounter one every so often. I'm curious what inspires some Wikipedians 
to remain anonymous for several years, refusing to ever register, and 
requesting edits at the appropriate pages whenever they want to alter a 
protected page. Heck-- I got annoyed having to request intervention for 
editing protected templates and applied for adminship myself-- so I 
don't see what it is that keeps them going on the anon account. If it 
was a difference of whether your history of contributions was logged or 
not, then it would make sense, but contributions are logged for both 
anon and registered users, so that can't be it.

I do applaud those who manage to remain anonymous for several years-- 
that's a hard way to edit!

God bless,
Bob

 Dear all,

 I'm a Master student and currently busy with my thesis concerning
 Wikipedia. This survey is part of a Master Thesis research project that
 investigates the effects of the increasing participation at reliability of
 Wikipedia. The survey is designed to collect information that will
 help me to identify the contributors to Wikipedia.

 I would like to invite you to answer my online survey, which is available
 at:

 http://freeonlinesurveys.com/rendersurvey.asp?sid=ag5flewr68z06ay867574

 To be eligible for this investigation you should be an user of Wikipedia
 who has contributed to the website by creating or editing an article.
 The questionnaire will take approximately 5 minutes to complete. To
 allow for reliable results, I hope that as many contributors as possible
 complete
 the questionnaire. You would especially help me if you could link to the
 questionnaire or forward this e-mail to people who don't regularly read
 this list.

 Your support would be greatly appreciated!

 With regards,

 Jeroen Kleijn



 Check your grammar on the survey. and in terms of the question relating to
 anonymity and vandalism, most editors will not describe it as a problem.
